Title: Re: Fruit Breeding.
Excuse me.  Monroe x N.Y. 18491 is a cross of two apple varieties - the picture shows what the fruit of all the seedlings looks like.

I just posted Dr. Roger Way's apple picture of 381 seedlings of his
cross of Monroe & N.Y. 18491  to http://www.hort.net/lists/gwlphotos/.
A friend sent it to me.  
It's an excellent example of the kind of variation a seedling population can produce, especially with very good parents.  Of course it doesn't show variations in the plant, fruit
quality, and such, but it's a good visual image of what can come of plant breeding.
