White or pink hybrid from eminent parents - Timur grape variety

Grapes From time immemorial, it grew in the southern regions of our country.

However, the emergence of industrial viticulture is associated with the beginning of the 17th century - the period of laying the specialized gardens in the annexed territories from the Caspian Sea to the Sea of ​​Azov.

There was an attempt to break the grape garden near Moscow, but every winter the saplings brought from Kiev and Chuguev had to be carefully covered with matting and spruce branches. This garden did not last long.

The article discusses the Timur grapes in detail, as well as a full description of the variety and photo of the fruit.

Breeding history

It is not by chance that the leading center for the selection of new hybrid forms of grapes is located in the historical zone of viticulture of Russia.

VNIIViV them. Potapenko has existed in Novocherkassk since 1936 and during this time he registered in the State Register more than 50 varieties of this crop, 21 - of its own selection. Among them, the fame are Harold, Red Delight, Pearl and Denisovsky.

The goal of the research institute - to promote grapes in the northern regions - is being successfully solved: Yekaterinburg and Vyatka have now become the cultivation boundary.

Another variety resistant to Russian winters has become “Timur”. And he got his name as recognition of unique qualities: invulnerability to frosts and putrefying diseases, because in translation from Turkic it means “Iron”.

The basis of the crossing process were taken two popular table varieties, characterized by extraordinary taste and agrotechnical characteristics:

1. Moldavian grapes Muscat group "Frumoasa Albe" ("White Beauty"), which has a tasting score of 8.2 points.

   The variety is unprecedentedly resistant to diseases and low temperatures. Consumer quality of heavy brushes and a significant regular yield - another motive for the selection of "Frumoas Albe" in the parent pair.

   The same resistance to minus can boast except that the Beauty of the North, Super Extra and Arched.

2. Table Grapes Delight - the success of Novocherkassk breeding proven over the years.

   He slowly mastered the territory atypical for viticulture: Belarus, the Baltic States, Siberia, the Far East.

   In terms of sugar accumulation and the severity of the hand, it surpasses the “White Beauty”, is well preserved on the bush after ripening and maintains its presentation for longer than the Moldovan variety.

The exceptional ability of parent plants to create perennial wood and excellent rooting is another plus perceived by the new hybrid form, called "Timur".

In the Middle Ages, monks used to grow vines indoors in monasteries. In the 18th century, grape orangeries built the breeder Demidov on the banks of the Moscow River. And before the creation of the All-Russian Institute of Scientific and Technical Investigations, they engaged in selection work only in Odessa.

Advantages and disadvantages

New hybrid inherited from eminent parents:

1. ability to self-pollination (bisexual flower);
2. universal compatibility with stocks;
3. early dates of entry into the productive phase (for the 2nd year);
4. early maturation (within 100 days);
5. active fruiting;
6. solid severity of the correct form of the brush;
7. large, dense, oval-shaped berries with an exquisite nutmeg aroma;
8. thin, easy to bite, skin;
9. sugar content exceeding parental norms (25%);
10. assessment of putrefaction in 2.2 points;
11. frost resistance index within -25оС.

As for the high sugar content, Angelica, Krasa Nikopol and Lydia have the same sign.

Disadvantages grape varieties "Timur" include:

• undersized bush;

Pink

We're the same blood?

It is quite natural that such a promising hybrid form as "Timur", received a continuation in another selection experiment already "OV" Grape Elite "(Zaporozhye).

White table grape "Timur" made in the parent pair.

For the emergence of a new hybrid - "Timur pink" (selection code ZT-4-5), the “Red Delight” variety from the Kuban selection was also chosen, giving a new pattern a pink color.

Matching the main parameters with white "Timur" his pink descendant added markedly:

• in the growth of the bush (to medium and even large height)
• in the size of the brush (average weight 800 gr.);
• in the size and sweetness of berries;
• in the thickness of the skin of the berries, and hence increased transportability.

The daughter form did not reach the optimal maturity of the parent's early maturity (the earliest time is 110 days), and the quality brush "Timur pink" characterized by obvious friability. But the elongated berries turned out to be a delightfully deep pink tone, which makes them the decoration of the garden and festive table.

In the new hybrid form in the course of selection, an enemy appeared in the form of a spider mite. Therefore, choosing between the beauty of the berries and resistance to disease, gardeners prefer Timur to white.
