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 clingstone nectarine tree denominated ‘Andes Nec-3’ which has fruit that is similar to ‘Flavortop’ nectarine that are yellow in flesh color, firm in texture, and balanced acid/sweet flavor. The variety is distinguished from the ‘Flavortop’ by having a more extended red blush, better taste, and longer postharvest life potential, and by producing fruit that is clingstone instead of freestone. The variety's harvest period is 10-12 days before the ‘August Red’ variety. Its fruit is solid red to purplish red blush, with a round, symmetrical fruit shape.

Abstract: A new and distinct variety of clingstone nectarine tree denominated ‘Andes Nec-1’ that is similar to the nectarine ‘Venus’ in terms of its high postharvest potential, and firm in texture. The variety is distinguished from ‘Venus’ by producing fruit that is clingstone instead of freestone, has skin completely covered by red blush, and matures about two weeks earlier. The variety's harvest period is a week before the ‘Fantasy’ nectarine variety. Its fruit is solid red to red-purple blush over yellow flesh, with a round, symmetrical fruit shape.
