The cultivars were selected from seedlings obtained from crosses between Anzu Tsukuba 5 and 'Harcot' and 'Rival' and Anzu Tsukuba 5 respectively. 'Ohisamacot' and 'Nikonicot' were designated as Anzu Tsukuba 9 and Anzu Tsukuba 12, respectively, and evaluated in the 2nd national trial of apricots at 6 experimental stations in Japan beginning in 1999. The cultivars were ultimately selected, named 'Ohisamacot' and 'Nikonicot', and registered as No.22907 and No.22908 under the Plant Variety Protection and Seed Act of Japan on December 20, 2013. The characteristics of 'Ohisamacot' are as follows: Tree vigor is strong. The number of flower buds is medium to many, and the flower is self-compatible. Flowering and harvest times at Tsukuba are approximately March 30 and June 30, respectively. The fruit is round-elliptical to elliptical in shape weighing an average of 110 g; thus, larger than 'Heiwa'. Skin and flesh color are orangeyellow. The juice soluble solids content is 11.5%, a value higher than that of 'Heiwa' and the acidity is pH 3.92. The texture of the flesh is slightly dense with no astringency. The shelf life is comparable to that of 'Harcot'. The fruit eating quality for table use is comparable to that of 'Harcot'. The characteristics of 'Nikonicot' are as follows: Tree vigor is strong to slightly strong. Trees are likely to bear many flower buds, and the flower is self-compatible. Flowering and harvest times at Tsukuba are approximately March 28 and July 1, respectively. The fruit is round-elliptical in shape weighing an average of 86 g; thus, larger than 'Heiwa'. Skin and flesh color are orange. The juice soluble solids content is 12.7%, a value higher than 'Heiwa', and the acidity is pH 4.24. The texture of the flesh is slightly dense to medium with very little or no astringency. The shelf life is longer than or comparable to that of 'Harcot'. The fruit eating quality for table use is comparable to 'Harcot'.}, pages = {1--12}, title = {アンズ新品種'おひさまコット'および'ニコニコット'}, volume = {18}, year = {2014}, yomi = {ヤエガキ, ヒデアキ and ヤマグチ, マサミ and ハジ, タカシ and スエサダ, ユウコ and ナカムラ, ユリ and キョウタニ, ヒデトシ and ニシムラ, コウイチ and ミヤケ, マサノリ and アダチ, エイスケ and コゾノ, テルオ and フクダ, ヒロユキ and キハラ, タケシ and スズキ, カツユキ and ウチダ, マコト} }
