Hi Folks,

Does anyone know anything about the genetics of sweet pit or kernel apricots?
I sort of remember reading something about it quite a while ago when I
wasn't living in an area that had lots of apricots, but i can't place where I
read it. It seemed like it was a fairly simple genetic trait that determined
whether they were sweet and edible like almonds or whether they were bitter
containing cyanide.

Martha
