Abstract
Described is a new and distinct blueberry variety with varietal denomination ‘Plablue 1545’, characterized by a combination of traits which include, weak vigor plant, semi upright plant growth habit, and very abundant production of large fruit-size, oblate shaped and very firm fruit. ‘Plablue 1545’ is a self-fertile variety.
Description
Botanical classification: Vaccinium corymbosum L.
Variety denomination: The new plant has the varietal denomination ‘Plablue 1545’.
This application claims the benefit of European Community Plant Variety Office Application No. 2018/2073, for a blueberry variety named ‘Plablue 1545,’ filed on Aug. 9, 2018, the entirety of which is incorporated by reference herein.
Disclosed herein is a new and distinct southern highbush blueberry variety (Vaccinium corymbosum L.). The varietal denomination of the new variety is ‘Plablue 1545.’ The new variety of blueberry was created in a breeding program by crossing two parents; in particular, by crossing as seed parent an undistributed blueberry parent designated 14.027.001 (unpatented) and as pollen parent an undistributed blueberry parent designated 14.049.001 (unpatented). Female and male are selections from breeder's program of the applicant. Both parental varieties are property of the applicant and have not been commercialized.
The new variety was grown and asexually propagated by softwood cuttings in Segovia, Spain, 3° 59′W., 41° 22′N., 2742 feet elevation. Clones of the new variety were further asexually propagated and extensively tested. This propagation and testing has demonstrated that the combination of traits disclosed herein which characterize the new variety are fixed and retained true to type through successive generations of asexual reproduction.
The growing period in Huelva, Spain, where the observations on primocane production were made, is between about November 20 and June 22 of the following year.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct southern highbush blueberry variety. The varietal denomination of the new variety is ‘Plablue 1545’, that produces and maintains a weak vigorous plant with consistent fruit production from beginning January through middle June. Among the characteristics which appear to distinguish the new variety from other varieties are a combination of traits which include a weak vigor plant, semi upright plant growth habit, and very abundant production of large fruit-size, oblate shaped and very firm fruit.
The new blueberry plant variety ‘Plablue 1545’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environmental and cultural practices such as temperature and light intensity without, however, any variance in genotype.
The new variety is distinguished from its parents by the following characteristics which are different than the seed parent designated ‘14.027.001’ (unpatented) and the pollen parent designated ‘14.049.001’ (unpatented).
Size of corolla tube in the flower of seed parent ‘14.027.001’ (unpatented) is higher than in the flower of ‘Plablue 1545’.
Seed parent ‘14.027.001’ (unpatented) shows a rounded fruit shape, whereas ‘Plablue 1545 shows an oblated fruit shape.
Depth of the calyx basin of fruit of seed parent ‘14.027.001’ (unpatented) is deep, whereas the depth of the calyx basin of fruit of ‘Plablue 1545’ is medium.
Leaf of pollen parent ‘14.049.001’ (unpatented) shows an elliptic shape, whereas leaf of ‘Plablue 1545’ shows a lanceolate shape.
Pollen parent ‘14.049.001’ (unpatented) shows a short length of internode on one-year-old shoot, whereas ‘Plablue 1545’ shows a medium length.
Fruit of pollen parent ‘14.049.001’ (unpatented) shows a shallow depth of the calyx basin, whereas fruit of ‘Plablue 1545’ shows a medium depth of the calyx basin.
The new variety is closest to the variety ‘Biloxi’ (unpatented), but is distinguished therefrom by the following characteristics which are different than ‘Biloxi’.
Ratio of length/width of the leaf of ‘Biloxi’ (unpatented) is longer than the ratio of length/width of the leaf of ‘Plablue 1545’.
Shape of the leaf of ‘Biloxi’ (unpatented) is elliptic, whereas shape of the leaf of ‘Plablue 1545’ is lanceolate.
Length of inflorescence of ‘Biloxi’ (unpatented) is shorter than the length of inflorescence of ‘Plablue 1545’.
Density of fruit cluster of ‘Biloxi’ (unpatented) is higher than the density of fruit cluster of ‘Plablue 1545’.
‘Biloxi’ (unpatented) shows a smaller fruit size and less firm fruit than the fruit of ‘Plablue 1545’.
Depth of the calyx basin in the fruit of ‘Biloxi’ (unpatented) is shallow, whereas depth of the calyx in the fruit of ‘Plablue 1545’ is medium.
Fruiting type of plant of ‘Biloxi’ (unpatented) is on one-year-old and current season's shoots, whereas fruiting type of plant of ‘Plablue 1545’ is on one-year-old shoots only.
Time of beginning of flowering on one-year-old shoot of ‘Biloxi’ (unpatented) is less early than in ‘Plablue 1545’
Time of beginning of fruit ripening on one-year-old shoot of ‘Biloxi’ (unpatented) is less early than in ‘Plablue 1545’.
Differences in the ratio of length/width and the shape of the leaf of ‘Plablue 1545’ (designated 15.09.020) and ‘Biloxi’ (unpatented) are shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 13 . Differences in density of fruit cluster of ‘Plablue 1545’ (designated 15.09.020) and ‘Biloxi’ (unpatented) are shown in FIG. 8 and FIG. 14 . Differences in fruit size of ‘Plablue 1545’ (designated 15.09.020) and ‘Biloxi’ (unpatented) are shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 15 . Differences in depth of calyx basin in the fruit of ‘Plablue 1545’ (designated 15.09.020) and fruit of ‘Biloxi’ (unpatented) are shown in FIG. 11 and FIG. 16 . These differences are maintained during the harvest season.
The accompanying photographs show typical specimens of the new variety, designated 15.09.020 in the illustrations, including fruit, foliage and flower, in color as nearly true as it is reasonably possible to make in color illustrations of this character.
The plants depicted in the drawings were planted October 14 in the farm of La Mogalla in Cartaya (Huelva), Spain, about 7° W, 37° N, 45 feet elevation.
Drawings/photographs were taken April (about April 4 and April 12): minimum temperate about 7° to 9° Centigrade, maximum temperate about 18 to 22° Centigrade.
The following detailed description of the new variety is based upon observations taken of plants and fruits grown “underglass”, i.e. undertunnel, in the farm of La Mogalla in Cartaya (Huelva), Spain, 7° W., 37° N., 45 feet elevation.
The following description is in accordance with UPOV terminology and the color teminology herein is in accordance with The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart (R.H.S.C.C.), 3rd edition published in 1995. The color descriptions and other phenotypical descriptions may deviate from the stated values and descriptions depending upon variation in environmental, seasonal, climatic and cultural conditions.
The new variety is principally propagated by softwood cuttings. Although propagation by softwood cuttings is presently preferred, other know methods of propagating blueberry plants may be used.
Blueberry root and develop well after transplanting.
‘Plablue 1545’ is propagated by softwood cuttings. It is a variety with fruit production from beginning January through middle June. It is a self-fertile variety. It produces large quantities of pollen throughout the seasons and pollination is good.
Production: Plants described are from high elevation nursery in Segovia, Spain, 3° 59′W., 41° 22′N., 2742 feet elevation.
Trials pursued in Cartaya (Huelva), Spain.
