Meteor is a tart cherry, listed as Prunus cerasus or Prunus cerasus L. in the University of Minnesota source [S1]. It is described as a clear juice, amarelle type tart cherry used in the study's tart cherry group [S1].
The source says Meteor was released by the University of Minnesota Fruit Breeding Farm in the early 1950s, with an introduction year table giving 1952 [S1]. The release statement is cited there to Brooks and Olmo, 1997 [S1].
In the reported tart cherry experiments, Meteor had 92% greenhouse survival and 91% field survival at the end of Experiment III [S1]. Its seed germination differed between non-scarified and scarified treatments, and greenhouse seedling survival ranged up to 92% for Meteor among the tart cherry entries [S1].
