A study was done at the Latvia State Institute of Fruit-Growing, evaluating new domestic plum (Primus domestica L.) selections, for which in 2008 -2010 some fruit quality characteristics were studied. In result of evaluation four new cultivars were selected from the breeding material and in 2010 handed in for cultivar registration in Latvia. Cultivar 'Ance' is early ripening one month before 'Victoria'. Cultivar 'Adele' is medium ripening one week before 'Victoria'. Fruits keep well in cool storage. Cultivar 'Sonora' is medium ripening one week after 'Victoria' and self-fertile. Fruits of this cultivar keep well in cool storage, too. Cultivar 'Lotte' is medium-late ripening two weeks later than 'Victoria', and is partially self-fertile. Average of three years, the highest soluble solids content was found for cultivar 'Adele' (13.28 Brix%), but cultivar 'Sonora' had the total content of acids (1.28 g 100 gE-1). Significant changes in flesh firmness were observed at different storage times for cultivars 'Ance' and 'Lotte'. Significant variations in the total content of acids were determined for 'Ance'. Whereas cultivar 'Sonora' demonstrated substantial fluctuations in soluble solids content. Correlations between firmness and soluble solids content were observed for cultivars 'Ance' (r=-0.731), 'Adele' (i=-0.436) and 'Sonora' (r=0.526). Cultivar 'Lotte' produced correlations between firmness and total content of acids (i=-0.536). Significance of interaction was determined within cultivars, years, and years x cultivars.
