Abstract: A new and distinct variety of nectarine tree named “Andes Nec-4” which has fruit that is similar to the ‘6B-170’ nectarine that is white in flesh color. The variety is distinguished from the ‘6B-170’ by reaching out higher content of soluble solids, by more extended red blush of the nectarine surface, by slower pulp softening rate during the last two weeks before the commercial harvest, by a higher postharvest life potential, and by a balanced acid/sweet flavor. ‘Andes Nec-4’ can maintain its quality after 40 days in cold storage.

Abstract: A new and distinct variety of clingstone nectarine tree denominated ‘Andes Nec-2’ which is characterized by the fruit of which maturing a week after the ‘August Red’ nectarine that matures at the end of the harvest season. The variety has a slow pulp softening rate commencing during the last two weeks before the commercial harvest, therefore, delaying the harvest. This produces fruit with increased size and soluble solids content. The variety has a high postharvest life potential, and will maintain its initial sensory quality at low temperatures over a period of time. Its fruit is striped/solid red blush over a light yellow background color, with a round, symmetrical fruit shape.

Abstract: A new and distinct variety of nectarine tree named ‘Andes Nec-5’ with high vigor, which produces a nectarine with a slow pulp softening rate during the last two weeks before a commercial harvest, the nectarine has a high postharvest life potential, the nectarine is round, symmetrical, it is white in flesh color and most of the nectarine surface is covered by 90 to 100% red blush, and the nectarine has a balanced acid/sweet flavor.

Abstract: A new and distinct variety of nectarine tree named ‘Andes Nec-6’ with medium vigor, which produces a nectarine with a slow pulp softening rate during the last two weeks before a commercial harvest, the nectarine has a high postharvest life potential, the nectarine is broad elliptic, moderately asymmetric, the nectarine has white flesh and the surface of its skin is cream yellow with 70 to 80% of its skin being covered by mottled red blush, and the nectarine has a balanced acid/sweet flavor.
