Sažetak
Production of sweet cherry, both autochthonous and other, world known varieties, is mainly extensive, reduced to small orchards and gardens. There are just few intensive producers of sweet cherry whose production is set up according to contemporary production principles. However, interest for sweet cherry production is increasing and new producers are interested in growing autochthonous varieties. There are seven sweet cherry varieties known in Croatia. Their production is limited to certain geographic area where they are traditionally produced and where the production results in premium quality. These varieties are named according to toponyms of the region of their production (village, mountain or island). Due to the lack of pomologycal research of sweet cherry, there are few scientific data about these varieties. The question is even if these varieties are really native, or they might have been a result of non-controlled introduction hundred and more years ago, and spreading by given local names afterwards. This paper gives the description of autochthonous sweet cherry varieties according to IPGRI descriptors, estimates their potential in production and set up guidelines for further research of biodiversity in sweet cherries.
