摘要 The new late-maturing pear cultivar ‘Suyu’ was bred through hybrid breeding using ‘Mili’ as the female parent and ‘Dangshansuli’ as the male parent. This cultivar has a nearly round fruit shape with a greenish-yellow skin, an average single fruit weight of 394.3 g, and a small core. The flesh is white, fine-textured, crisp, juicy, sweet, and aromatic, with a soluble solid content of 12.8%. The tree has a strong growth vigor, an open canopy, high budding rate, and strong branching ability, making it suitable for spindle or cylindrical cultivation. The main color of the one-year-old branches on the sunny side is brown. The young leaves are yellowish-green, and the mature leaves are ovate with sharp serrations. Each inflorescence has 5 to 7 flowers with pink petals, a pistil that protrudes above the stamens, and purple-red anthers. The fruit development period is about 150 d, and it matures in mid-to-late September in Changli, Hebei. The cultivar is high-yielding, stable, and well-suited for storage. ‘Suyu’ can be cultivated in pear-growing areas of Hebei Province and regions with similar ecological types.
