Several years ago, I did some genetic "fingerprinting" of a number of U of Minnesota apples, including MN447.  From the genetic data, MN447 and Northern Spy are parents of Keepsake, a popular U of M introduction.  There were old reports that MN447 was derived from open-pollinated Malinda, but the genetic data do not support this.

Fedco trees lists an interesting MN 477 apple.  Anyone familiar with this apple?  Opinions on flavor, growth habits, and suggested pollinators would be welcome.
