The current state of production and consumption of apples and apple products in the world, European countries and Ukraine is analyzed. A trend towards a decline in apple consumption per capita is noted and its reasons are given. The possibilities and prospects for creating functional products based on apples, primarily old varieties, are discussed. The results of the analysis of Ukrainian apple tree samples (353 names) registered in the National Center for Plant Genetic Resources of Ukraine are presented, according to their origin, distribution and intended use of products. There are 118 names of folk selection varieties: the appearance (first mention) of 58 of them dates back to the 19th century, 46 to the 20th. There are few ancient samples, the first reports of which appeared in the 17th and early 18th centuries. The vast majority of ancient varieties are autochthonous. They form, as a rule, apples of summer - early winter ripening period and are characterized by the following properties: high frost resistance and resistance to the scab pathogen; unpretentiousness to soils and other growing conditions; generous yield and tendency to periodic fruiting; variety of fruits in appearance and overall quality; average and satisfactory taste and short shelf life of fruits. Their apples were consumed mainly fresh, the suitability of fruits for technical processing, with some exceptions, has not been determined. Several varieties of this group (‘Putivka oseninia’, ‘Knysh’, ‘Kobatska sinka’, ‘Odinkivske bile’, ‘Chelebi’) in the 30-60s of the 20th century were included in the standard assortment of some regions of Ukraine.
Varieties of folk selection, which by the time of their appearance (late 19th - early 20th centuries) belong to the second, more numerous group, were called amateur. They had no industrial significance, they were most popular in peasant farms. Although some of them (‘Butske’, ‘Muhryk’, ‘Nemyrivka’, ‘Doneshta’, ‘Aport’, ‘Kalvil snigovy’, ‘Gul Pembe’, ‘Zori’) were grown for some time in the 20th century in industrial orchards of certain regions of Ukraine. The chemical composition of apples of many of these varieties still remains insufficiently studied. The taste of most of them was estimated at 3.7-4.0 points (on a 5-point scale) and was characterized as bland, mediocre. It is noted that old varieties of traditional selection are not in demand today by domestic breeders; while they represent a cultural and historical value that deserves in-depth study and a change in perspective on the directions of their use.
Key words: apple, variety, production, variety study, sample, collection, gene pool, traditional selection.
