Abstract
Numerous famous specialists, such as Couranjou, (1975, 1989), Keubemen et al., (1979), Bailey and Hough, (1977), Cociu and Hough), (1985), Audergon et al., (1995, 2006); Balan et al., (1999, 2006); Bassi, (1990, 1999); Badenes et al., (2006); Muleo et al., (2006), emphasized the genetics of apricot maturity, the exploitation of the initial and induced genetic variability, and the employment of corresponding improvement methods. On these bases, since 2000 a large set of cultivars have been created, such as: 'Rares', 'Valeria', 'Carmela', 'Viorica', 'Auras', 'Cristal', 'Fortuna'. They are characterized by their early fruit maturation in the Romanian climatic conditions (15-20 June), and their qualitative, agronomic, and adaptability features, which inscribe them into the new generation of cultivars created in European countries with long tradition in apricot culture.
