Selection Study on New Excellent Variety of Chestnut Jiejiehong

A surplus seedling was found during survey germ plasma resources of Chinese Chestnut (Castanea mollissima Bl.) in Anhui province in 1993. Based on appraisal of its vegetative plants, it is shown that it has strong ability to produce more pistillate flowers and strong resistance to pruning and detrimental conditions, and that it produces early fruits (the last ten days of August) with high yield and good quality. Its nuts are big (average weight is 25.0 g), and they are shiny and attractive. After the branches of young trees are heavily cut, the fruits mature relatively late (the last ten days of November) on the sprouts. The nuts can be stored for a long time (those in bracts can be stored till the next March). Its quality is good and its commercial value is high.
