| Abstract:
A blueberry breeding program was started in 1975 at the Department of Pomology of the Warsaw Agricultural University—SGGW. The main objectives were to breed for: winter hardiness, productivity and early ripening. Out of 11 promising hybrid selections, one has been named and registered as cultivar ‘Bonifacy’. Also, a selection of lingonberries from the wild has been continued. A new cultivar ‘Runo Bielawskie’ was named and released. | |
