In order to select pollinizer varieties of high fruit qualities with large sized and high soluble solid contents, Nishimurawase was crossed with Johongsi at the Pear Research Institute, National Institute of Horticultural and Herbal Science in 2000. Among these crossed seedlings, 00-16-121 was selected primarily in 2007, and it was finally selected since it was worthy of not only a pollinizer but also ripen and dried persimmon and named Partner in 2009. Partner shows intermediate in growth habit and semi-spreading tree shape. It has plenty of male flowers and rich pollen amount with about 380 mg per one hundred flowers. The average optimum harvest time of Partner was 144 days after full bloom and it matured around one week earlier than Zenzimaru and three weeks later than Nishimurawase. The fruit is elliptic in shape and orange in skin color. Average fruit weight was 224 g, and soluble solids content was 18.8 Brix.
