Abstract

The plum variety Yuzhnaya Krasavitsa (Prunus domestica L.) is a high-quality cultivar developed for cultivation in moderately continental and southern climates. This variety is distinguished by medium to large fruit size, attractive dark purple skin, yellow juicy flesh, harmonious sweet-sour taste, and easy stone separation, making it suitable for fresh consumption and industrial processing. The trees exhibit medium growth vigor, well-formed crown structure, early fruiting, and stable yield. Yuzhnaya Krasavitsa is adaptable to drought, high summer temperatures, and moderate winter cold, with moderate resistance to common fungal diseases. This study provides an overview of its origin, biological traits, fruit quality, and economic potential, supporting its suitability for modern horticultural production and commercial orchard establishment.
