    • 1937, V. A. Tetjurev, translated by N. J. Molotsova, Loonnontiito oppikirja alkușkoulua vart (toin osa), Leningrad: Riikin Ucebno-Pedagogiceskoi Izdateljstva, page 23:
      Sekasikihymisen avul Micurin kehitti toomen ja mesimarjan sekasortun. Marjat siin istuut haaraas niin sakkiast ku i toomimarjat, mut maku ono mesimarjan.
      With the help of interbreeding Michurin developed a crossbreed of the bird cherry and the cherry. The berries sit on that branch as thick as a bird cherry, but the flavour is that of a cherry.
