In 2005, a new persimmon (Diospyros kaki L. Thunb.) cultivar ‘Wonchu’ was derived by crossing ‘Shinsyu’ and ‘Taishu’, and it was finally selected in 2015. In the Yeoung-am province, the average maturing date of the fruit of this cultivar was October 3rd. The quantitative characteristics of the fruit of ‘Wonchu’ include a larger size (324 g on average) and presence of high soluble-solids (approximately 15.1 °Brix). The flesh of the fruit is juicy, has a crispy texture, and tastes good. The shape of the fruit is round oblate (when looked from the side), and the color of its skin is orange. Physiological disorders, such as fruit cracking or fine skin cracking, rarely occur (Registration No. 8579).

A new persimmon (Diospyros kaki L. Thunb.) cultivar, ‘Gampung’, a progeny derived from the cross between ‘Daeandangam’ and ‘Taishu’ in 2004, was finally selected in 2013. Fruits of ‘Gampung’ were available for harvest on October 24 in the Yeong-am area. It had a very large fruit size of 413 g on average, and high soluble solids of approximately 14.7 °Bx. Its flesh taste was good, and it had a crispy texture and rich juice. The shape of the fruit was round oblate from the side view, and it had orange skin. Physiological disorders such as fruit cracking or skin fine cracking rarely occurred in this cultivar (Registration No. 8030).

AbstractIn 2014, a new high-quality, pollination-constant, non-astringent persimmon (Diospyros kaki L. Thunb.) cultivar, ‘Wonmi’, a breeding of ‘Fuyu’ and ‘Taishu’ from 2005, was developed. ‘Wonmi’ fruit were harvested on October 8 in Yeongam, South Korea. The fruit are medium-sized (220 g on average), with a high amount of soluble solids (15.1 °Bx). The juicy flesh has a pleasant taste and crispy texture. The fruit shape is round oblate, and the skin color is orange with a graceful appearance. Physiological disorders, such as stylar-end or fine skin cracking, rarely occur in this cultivar (Registration No. 7724).
