Hi everbody,
I need your all help to complete my list of Synonyms.
I am looking for all the "other names" of fig varieties that we are dealing with here.
*The purpose of this list is to lessen the confusion for fig tree buyers and collectors when it comes to names and the synonyms used for them. Often we all buy things more then once because the fig tree or the cutting was named by the name or the synonym (the other name) given to it. This , by all means, is nothing of a seller's fault but the buyer's lack of proper knowledge of name/synonym for each variety. By having a revised and more accurate version of the list we can all benefit by saving money, space in our gardens and confusion. 

Please feel free to write whatever comes to mind about names and synonyms and at the end we will have a huge list with all the Synonyms.

For example, it can go something like this...
Armenian Great White/Petrelli,
Brunswick/Magnolia/Madonna/Dalmatia,
Black Jack/Petite Negra,
Violet de Bordeaux/Negronne,  
Sultane/Noire de juillet/Bellone bifère/Sultani,  
Kadota/Pingo de Mell/Dottato,
California Brown Turkey/San Piero/Genoa Black in Italy/UCD Germaplasm have it under DFIC 17 Brown Turkey


This process will consist of several steps, first names/synonyms, second pictures of fruit and leaf, the third (elimination of wrong and duplicate), then entire list will be taken to respected organizations to compare with their databases and then only then it may be ready to be used by independent figgers and other level of dealers of figs. 

*** Do NOT depend on this nor use this information during the process , since we all know, it will be very confusing and misleading to most if not all of us.

Jon has the biggest fig (F. carica) data-base on our good earth.
He lists both the names and description 'as-is' from the source.

Most have synonym name(s) added to the best of ones knowledge.

Sometimes, it may add to more confusion, remember that;
there are same-exact-figs with different-names
and
there are different-figs with the same-exact-name ...

George , no offense  but that's an oxymoron, if there are few fig varieties with same name only ONE can be the true name holder. But I trust your experienced judgment so I'm keeping an open mind ;)

    Jon has the synonyms in his data bank but it's difficult to follow the trail of synonyms in that format.  It would be very useful info for figsters to have a compiled list on hand.   
  Wow can you imagine the potential a forum this large has to compile data?   A new glossary, dictionary, or... encyclopedia of figs would be great.  Sheesh that would be a big job but would be great.

Thanks Soni for the list.  It is a great quick reference for me;  I wonder if I've bought Magnolia when it was listed as Brunswick.  Time will tell. 
     Also can you tell me what vs means?  Like Marseilles vs.  and baud? I get confused about Sal's also.  I am still new here.   Thanks.

Thanks for the list. I found this there:

I thought that F.Preto resembles the Black Madeira. Why the LdA?

 These are redundant, but validated.    I dont't recall where I copied this from,  maybe in this forum:

"The folks at the NCGR & UC Davis published a paper in 2010 showing the genetic relatedness of 194 figs in their collection.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2860561/pdf/10709_2010_Article_9442.pdf

 

In a number of cases, they found certain figs to be the same at the level of discrimination their testing allowed. There was both agreement with the "sameness" and disagreement for a couple of the cases in the responses after my initial post. There is a ton of experience on this forum with many (most? all?) of these cultivars. I would really be interested in peoples' experiences with these cultivars noted as "the same" and why you believe them to be the same or not the same.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Figs found to be the "same" by the SSR markers are:

 

 Adriatic and Lamperia

 Afgan A and Caucasus 3

 Archipel, Malcoms Super Giant, Drap Dor, and Encanto Brown Turkey

 Brown Turkey, CA Brown Turkey, Walker, Braun Turkey, Black Jack and Blue Giant

 Brunswick, Rattlesnake, Capitola Long, Doree and Red Italian

 Col de Dame and Maho

Deanna, Orphan, UCR 278-128 and Algerian Watts

Genoa White, Harvey Adriatic and Genoa

 Gulbun and Jurupa

 Italian 258 and Italian 320

Lemon, Dokkar, LSU Everbearing, White Texas Everbearing, Kadota and Trojano

 Marabout and UCR 291-4

 Noire de Caromb, Cuello Dama Negro and Charles Allen

 Panachee and Italian 256

 Paradiso, Monstrueuse and Ischia Green

 Pastiliere and Rouge de Bordeaux

Roeding and Capri A

 Sal's, Dark No. 1 Portuguese and Abruzzi

 San Joao and Roscoff

 San Petro and Yougo 7

 Santa Cruz Dark and Giant Amber

 Verte and Calverte

 Vista, Beers Black and Violette de Bordeaux

 White San Pedro and Italian 372

Aaron4USA,
Per my reply to your PM, you can edit and use this Excel Spreadsheet to organize you data, it includes all cultivars that were availible from all the listed vendors including all UCDavis listed cultivars and their DFIC#'s.

Just insert new Alias or Synonym Columns.... The PDF is a snapshot of the attached Excel Spreadsheet. They were posted on the forum in an older Topic that I started. Good Luck with your project.

Aaron, you sent me a PM with a link to this thread so I guess you wanted me to contribute.  So here it is: I think this is a poor use of limited time.  Two frustrating things about figs (besides birds) is giving an unknown a name and for inappropriately assigning synonym status to similar figs.  I see some synonyms listed above that I don't agree with.  Enough said.

Harvey, you are so right!  I noticed a fig in my excel spreadsheet that I didn't recognize.  I read all about it and realized I GAVE A SEEDLING A NAME!  ME!  Myself!  "Miss Ranillo," named because it germinated under a Tempranillo  wine grape vine canopy.  A little seedling that grew in a 3 gallon pot where I had spread a bunch of Black Mission seeds from figs purchased at the grocery store.  It's MY name for MY seedling, and it's now about 4" tall.  I put some Hardy Chicago cuttings into that pot when it looked like no seed would germinate.  One day a baby appeared.  It's not a shoot from HC.  It could be a Black Mission.  It will take years to find out.  But, Miss Ranillo is a temporary name.  I don't know what the answer is.  One of my unknowns is named Wild One.  There are no rules, and that is how all these synonyms come up.  No matter how much we would like it all straight, it's not a perfect world.

I have to agree with Harvey. I can see what you are trying to do but I think it has more potential for adding to the confusion than clearing up the already confusing enough world of fig names. It's not too bad if each named fig had unique common names associated with it. The problem develops when common names are associated with more than 1 fig. When that fig is collected, mis labeled, and shared the confusion grows and corrupts. No one has done anything unethical or intentionally dishonest but the error still exists. Putting a list together like this would be like giving Justin Beber the keys to your Lamborgini. You know that sooner or later it will go bad. I trust Jon at Encanto. I use his list as my refrence.

I'd like to clarify one thing - Jon's list of synonyms is not accurate either, it's simply what he has found reported elsewhere, in most cases.  Jon's list shows Black Ischia has a synonym of Black Provence.  I wrote Jon about this before and he said he didn't attempt to confirm the accuracy of the snynonyms and didn't have time to do so or to make all corrections when pointed out.  Black Provence has a different leaf form and lacks the reddish petioles of Black Ischia (Ischia Black).  I bought Black Ischia from Richard Watts that was really Black Provence.  He told me on the phone that he say it was listed as a synonym for Black Ischia and renamed it that.  A lot of help that synonym designation was. NOT!

Keep on with what you are doing Aaron, we can challenge the stuff later. This is a good start, and maybe later we can have fruit and leaf pics to somewhat clarify some things here. Sometimes I see a particular fig and I want to match up my leaves with a posting/topic. Will be keepin an eye on this Topic. Good Luck !!!

Yup Harvey it came to RW named as Black Provence and he changed its name this is just the tip of iceburg how things can get confused, couple that up with folks passing stuff around then showing pictures of said plant and another poster gets confused
and says "wait a minute that looks nothing like my well known cultivar.


Aaron types in part -  BTW, does any one know if Negretta, Petit Negrone or Negrone same fig?
Answer -Negretta is very different.

Also as a side note there is a fig given name "Unknown Negretta" by a member which is also very different and in my humble opinion should not have Negretta even in that name yet another instance when confusion can set in.

When most of us older folks are dead and buried and no one around to correct mistakes - enough said.

meanwhile I haven't touch any of the info here yet, just lining them up for editing, hoping collectively we can all put our knowledge together and FINE TUNE the final list. Thanks for the input, feel free to correct anything.

yes Armando, as I have mentioned earlier, the next steps to this process would be to add pictures of fruit and leaves , not just one of each mind you... the same tree can produce several shape leaves and fruit.

I don't believe in the UC Davis DNA test on figs.  And another person at UC Davis agrees with me.  There is a lot that I do not agree with at all.  Especially since some in question, I grow in NC.

Martin, your (older generation's) opinions are very important to all of us. Any thing that will correct a mistake will be appreciated. please don't give me "enough said, enough said attitude. :) you are already giving valuable examples of how wrong things happened and how to stop them... keep up the good work.

Dennis, we all should know by now that, a single fig tree will produce several types of leaves and slightly different shaped fruit... DNA test is foolproof, as long as it HAS been done. The question is did they run the test on all the figs in their list!

The DNA test performed by USDA Davis is not even close to being foolproof.  They did a relatively small sample of genes compared to testing typically done in other species.  I am no geneticist but shared the report with a good geneticist friend of mine.

SoniSoni, Aaron,

Your above lists show somewhere:

BLACK MADEIRA FIG IN PORTUGUES IS BREBA PRETA

This does not seem to be correct
Instead I would say:

Black Madeira is synonym to Figo Preto - its Portuguese name in the Madeira Islands
and Violeta in continental Portugal

BEBERA PRETA is a totally different cultivar

The first link fits the criteria of what you are wishing to accomplish but not all varieties have pictures.

The second link has unverified synonyms (USDA) 

Hope I didn't waste your precious time of recreating Jon's Database, please don't send me PM's of just a link to your thread.  I can read just fine and if I had wished to participate in it before hand I would have, just because you view me as an active member does not mean I appreciate your spam and self promotion.  Good luck with your database.

Dennis, we all should know by now that a single fig tree will produce several types of leaves and slightly different shaped fruit... DNA test is foolproof, as long as it HAS been done. The question is did they run the test on all the figs in their list!


The DNA test performed by USDA Davis is not even close to being foolproof.  They did a relatively small sample of genes compared to testing typically done in other species.  I am no geneticist but shared the report with a good geneticist friend of mine.
we are coming back to my point, if it's done correctly, it is foolproof.

my my... we have some grumpies here.
Anyway,if you have nothing good to say at least please let me continue working on this. 

I'm sure newer generations will appreciate and enjoy participating to this challenging project.
We will, dissect/re-write and re-organize the OLD list which (as several oldies admit) is not entirely correct and is confusing.
Thank you for all who keep providing data to work on and being so positive about it ;)

This is not to promote myself (after all, i am not a dealer of cuttings nor trees).
I want to create an accurate and updated list of detailed database for future figsters.

there is no such a thing as "foolproof". given enough chance and time, someone will prove himself or herself to be a fool.

Chivas, sorry you look at this entire thing as of my own promotion? Although the information you provided is very valuable, it also is very old,complex and confusing and multilayered. What I want to create is much simpler and easy to read (no guessing) type of chart-like database. One may turn it into a poster or download in PC for better use. The re-done version will be what's latest all about FIGs information at you fingertips :)
