Dakota is listed in a Prairie Canada apple cultivar directory as a standard cultivar in the Malus group, with only a basic factual record rather than a full narrative [S1].
Its parentage is given as Wealthy × Whitney, and it is attributed to Wm. Otto from Mandan in 1966 [S1].
The entry says it was tested as Mandan 42-13, which is a trial code, not a place [S1].
Fruit is described as about 7 cm in diameter and classified for dessert use [S1].
The Brooks and Olmo register preserves the surname form "Oitto" [S1].
A separate source in this packet describes a Dakota in winter-hardy Prunus material, noting high seed germination across environments, scarification treatments, and storage conditions. This likely refers to a different taxon with the same name, so it should not be merged into this apple profile without confirming identity [S1] [S2].
