Maluma was selected in the early 1990s in South Africa as a chance seedling of unknown parentage similar to Hass. It has been granted plant breeder's rights in South Africa and registration is pending in several other countries. Maluma bears fruit earlier than Hass, has a constant and high bearing pattern, and is highly productive even at high densities without growth retardants. It offers advantages over Hass such as disease resistance, attractive appearance, excellent taste, and suitability for early season markets.

INTRODUCTION Maluma®, a predominantly Guatemalan with some Mexican genes, was selected in the early 1990’s by Mr Dries Joubert at Maluma farm, South Africa, as a chance seedling of unknown parentage due to its similarity to Hass. Allesbeste nursery evaluated the variety. Plant breeder’s rights (Za 20043215) was granted in South Africa. Registration of plant breeder’s rights for Australia, New Zeeland, USA, South America and Africa is pending. Maluma has been approved in South Africa as an export cultivar since 2006.
