The EUFRUIT Knowledge Platform is part of a European thematic network of 21 partners including research institutes, universities and industrial partners who represent keyparts of the fruit supply chain from 12 countries.

The European Fruit Network (EUFRUIT) - Knowledge Platform

EUFRUIT Knowledge Platform is an international open access database of electronic documents related to productivity, sustainability and quality of fruit in the European fruit sector. New knowledge on fruit research and best practice approaches at a European level are available in the database. It is possible to search for information in a specific language.

Focuses are on four thematic areas of critical importance to competitiveness and innovation potential of the European fruit sector:

Fruit quality; improvement of fruit handling/storage

CTIFL-WP2-A43 New apple varieties – Recognising them to enhance enjoyment and value Publication of flyer/leaflet - Performance of new fruit varieties In order to disseminate references on the new apple varieties on offer, Ctifl has published a document aimed at the wholesale and retail sector. It presents the main sensory characteristics of the fruit, and more precisely: - Fruit: average fruit size and skin quality - Physicochemical characteristics: firmness, sugar content and malic acid - Shelf life: defined by slow, medium…
Laimburg-WP2-A99 The tasteful strawberry of South Tyrol Publication in journal/magazine aimed at general public - Performance of new fruit varieties The strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa) is a perennial plant and it presents a high phenotypic variability. This means that it shows a high variability of all the displaied characteristics, such as for example: morphology, colour, physiological and biochimical characteristics. The interaction with the environment is highly significant: the same variety (or cultivar) cultivated in…
Laimburg-WP2-A98 An expedition in the area of origin of our cultivated apple Publication in journal/magazine aimed at general public - Performance of new fruit varieties An expedition of the South Tyrolean delegation, which i.a. Walter Guerra (Laimburg Research Centre) and Markus Bradlwarter (Variety Innovation Consortium South Tyrol) were part of, led to the apple forests of Kazakhstan.

Laimburg-WP2-A97 New Generation of Gala Clones Publication in technical journal - Performance of new fruit varieties The apple variety Gala has become one of the most important standard varieties in the world. The variety is relatively easy to cultivate: even though Gala is quite susceptible to pathogens, due to the early harvest it is exposed for a shorter period, compared to other varieties. Through 1-MCP, the storability was improved radically. In the last years, mainly Gala clones were…
NIABEMR-WP2-A47 EUFRUIT WP2 Scanning report Y2 "Stone Fruit Variety Testing" Publication of scanning report - Performance of new fruit varieties This scanning report provided an overview of varietal trials for stone fruit in the UK. Most of these are now carried out by producer organisations or breeding programmes without public funding going into coordinated trials. Some information on previous levy-board-funded trials is given as well as general objectives and methods for trials in the UK
NIAB EMR-WP1-1 A presentation at a national grower event introducing EUFRUIT Participation in industry event or exhibit - Project management The AHDB/EMRA Tree fruit day is an annual event attracting participants from across the UK. The latest research results are presented from all areas including variety development, crop protection, storage and sustainable fruit production. Many NIAB EMR and NRI researchers presented their work and this presentation was intended to introduce the EUFRUIT project to the UK tree fruit…
NIABEMR-WP2-A46 EUFRUIT WP2 NIAB EMR Scanning report Y1 "Apple and Pear Variety Testing" Publication of scanning report - Performance of new fruit varieties This report provided a brief overview of apple and pear variety testing in the UK. Currently, UK growers do not commission any cultivar trials for pip fruit through their levy board (AHDB Horticulture) and that has been the case for many years nor do they run other independent tests jointly. It has become industry practice to run their own observational trials on grower farms.…
NIABEMR-WP2-A54 EUFRUIT WP2 Y3 NIAB EMR scanning report 'Soft Fruit Variety Testing' Publication of scanning report - Performance of new fruit varieties This scanning report provided a brief overview of the state of play for berry variety testing in the UK. Most trials are carried out privately by producer organizations and breeding programmes and protocols vary depending of the organisation that carries them out. At NIAB EMR it is typical to record objective measurements include harvest date, marketable and unmarketable yield…
