Japanese nashis

1996/09/01 Elhuyar Zientzia Iturria: Elhuyar aldizkaria

The image below shows a fruit called nashi. It has the taste of pear and apple consistency, but it is not hybrid between these two species, as they are sexually incompatible.

However, a Japanese researcher has obtained the hybrid fruits of apple and nashia. In vitro fertilization of nashis on apple pollen has allowed 2% of embryos to advance and become a fertile tree. These hybrids are very interesting for their resistance to nashis diseases worked in Japanese humid climate.
