“…The yield efficiency obtained for trees of the other cultivars assessed was 2-4 times lower than for trees of the cultivar 'Victoria' , which is consistent with the results obtained by other authors (Hjeltnes 1994;Meland, Moe 2007;Meland 2010).…”

“…Fruits of the cultivars: 'Jubileum' , 'Reeves' and ' Avalon' were also larger than those of 'Victoria' , which is consistent with results obtained by other authors (Jones 1989;Meland, Moe 2007;Meland 2010). 'Edda' produced the smallest fruits.…”

“…After eight years of growth in the orchard, the largest cross-sectional area of the trunk was shown by 'Excalibur' trees. Trees of the cultivar ' Avalon' also grew very strongly, which is consistent with the available literature (Jones 1989;Kemp, Wustenberghs 1998;Meland, Moe 2007).…”

“…Fruits of the evaluated plum cultivars grown in central Poland (Experimental Orchard, Dąbrowice) ripened within a period similar to that in Belgium and the Netherlands (Kemp, Wustenberghs 1998), but earlier than in the studies conducted in the UK (Jones 1989) and Norway (Meland, Moe 2007;Sekse 2007). The reason for the differences in ripening time were different climatic conditions in these fruit-growing areas.…”

“…in Anderson, Okie 1997). Some have been successfully grown for many years in the Nordic countries, while others, from more recent breeding programmes, are becoming increasingly popular (Redalen 2002;Meland, Moe 2007;Sekse 2007;Meland 2010). There is a chance that they will also find a place in plum orchards in Poland.…”

'Victoria' were the control combination. On the basis of the eight-year study it was found that the most vigorously growing were trees of the cultivar 'Excalibur' . The most susceptible to frost damage and infection by Chondrostereum purpureum (silver leaf ) were trees of the cultivars 'Edda' and 'Excalibur' . In addition, the cv. 'Excalibur' was characterized by high susceptibility to the Plum pox virus (sharka). The highest cumulative fruit yield was shown by the cultivar 'Jubileum' . The worst fruiting were trees of the cultivar 'Mallard' . Fruits of the cv. 'Excalibur' had the highest weight. The smallest were fruits of the cv. 'Edda' characterized by early ripening time. The highest amounts of soluble solids were contained in fruits of the cultivar ' Avalon' . The cvs 'Edda' , 'Reeves' and ' Avalon' proved suitable for cultivation in Polish climatic conditions.
