Example

[0018]The following detailed description of the ‘NJS98-35’ variety is based on observations of plants growing in the field on Chatsworth, N.J. and City Point, Wis. The characteristics of the variety were compared to ‘Stevens’ (unpatented) and ‘Ben Lear’ (unpatented), two of the most widely used cranberry varieties. The observed propagules were 3-8 years of age.[0019]Scientific name: Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait.[0020]Parentage:[0021]Seed parent.—The variety ‘Franklin’ (derived from an ‘Early Black’בHowes’ cross) (unpatented).[0022]Pollen parent.—The variety ‘Ben Lear’ (selected from the wild in 1900 in Berlin, Wis.) (unpatented).[0023]Plant:[0024]Vigor.—General observations of ‘NJS98-35’ plantings indicate average plant vigor. The amount of growth generated from 1 cutting planted in a 3″ pot in May 2006 (3 pots per variety) was measured after 4 months; ‘NJS98-35’ had 94 cm of top growth, ‘Stevens’ (unpatented) had 88 cm, and ‘Ben Lear’ (unpatented) had 104 cm.[0025]Growth habit.—Trail...

Abstract

A new cranberry variety distinguished by significantly higher yields, higher anthocyanin content (red pigment), lower titratable acidity, and larger fruit size. In addition, high TAcy values in September provide for an earlier harvest window for processed fruit, especially relative to ‘Stevens’ (unpatented), a primary commercial variety.

Description

STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT[0001]This invention was made in part with United States Government support awarded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Cooperative State Research, Education and Extension Service, under grant SRG 88-34155-3491. Therefore, the Government may have certain rights in this invention.[0002]Latin name of the genus and species of the plant claimed: Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait.[0003]Variety denomination: ‘NJS98-35’.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0004]The present invention relates to a new and distinct American cranberry variety having a combination of traits, including significantly higher yields and higher anthocyanin (red pigment) content, as compared to currently cultivated commercial varieties. The new variety, ‘NJS98-35’, resulted from crossing the variety ‘Franklin’ (unpatented) as the seed parent and the variety ‘Ben Lear’ (unpatented) as the pollen parent. The parent varieties are genetically distinct from the majority of ...
