Following is a detailed description or specification of the present variety.
MNUS 248 is a result of a cross between Glooscap and an unnamed seedling designed MNUS 99, made in a controlled breeding program in 1986 at Beltsville, Md. MNUS 248 was discovered and selected at the University of Minnesota North Central Experiment Station at Grand Rapids, Minn. in 1988. The variety has been stable and uniform through propagation by stolons and by in vitro micropropagation from stolon meristems. Off-types, variants, and mutations have not been observed. MNUS 248 was propagated by stolons for later observation in trails at the University of Minnesota Horticultural Research Center near Excelsior, Minn. and the North Central Experiment Station at Grand Rapids, Minn. from 1989 to 1990, and at the USDA Beltsville Agricultural Research Center, Beltsville, Md. in 1991 and in 1996.
MNUS 248 was evaluated in replicated yield trials from 1992 through 1996 at The Horticultural Research Center, the North Central Experiment Station, and the West Central Experiment Station at Morris, Minn. (Tables 1 through 12). At each site, plantings were estabished in 1991, 1993 and 1995 and harvested for one or two subsequent seasons. MNUS 248 and other common cultivars of the midwestern U.S. and eastern Canada were planted in a randomized complete block design. Plants were spaced 0.45 m apart within rows that were 1.2 m apart and 4 m long. The plants were permitted to form a matted row that was approximately 0.4 m wide. At Grand Rapids, a split plot design was employed on 7 m long plots which were split with half of the plot being mulched for protection during the winter and the other half receiving no mulch. All plots were irrigated, fertilized, and sprayed with fungicide and insecticide as needed in accordance with standard commercial recommendations.
Fruit: The fruit of MNUS 248 matures in the middle part of the fruiting season for short day varieties. The fruit matures approximately at the same time as fruit of the cultivars Glooscap, Kent, Cavendish, and Jewel which are commonly grown in Minnesota (Tables 1, 2, 3 and 4). Compared to these varieties, the berries of MNUS 248 generally have been similar in size to those of Glooscap and Kent and smaller than those of Cavendish and Jewel (as measured by average berry weight; Tables 1, 2, 3 and 4). Subjective comparisons of the fruit characteristics of MNUS 248 with other adapted varieties are presented in Tables 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. The flavor is well balanced between sugars and acids with a characteristic strawberry aroma. The flesh is moderately firm with a consistent, creamy, melting mouthfeel. The skin is of medium toughness but tends to become weak in hot weather. The fruit of MNUS 248 have a glossy skin with slightly uneven deep crimson skin color corresponding to R.H.S. Colour Chart plate 53A in lighter areas and 185A in darker areas. The skin does not tend to darken as much as Glooscap. The flesh color is fairly uniform dark red through the fruit and corresponds to R.H.S. Colour Chart plate 34A except for a whitish vascular cylinder. The surface of the fruit is smooth to slightly uneven. The shape is blunt-wedge or blunt-conic with large shoulders on primary berries to blunt-conic on the secondary and tertiary berries. The berries are equaal in length and width to slightly longer than broad. The peduncle is medium to long in length and prostrate by the time of the first harvest. The calyx is equal in diameter to the fruit, showy, inserted in a shallow basin, and clasping to partially reflexed. Sepals are borne in two whorls with the inner whorl being elliptic with sharp points, and the outer whorl being narrow lanceolate with rounded tips. The achenes are yellow and below the surface of the fruit and are absent from only a narrow band at the calyx end of the fruit.
Flowers: The inflorescence is usually slightly below or level with the foliage when the flowers are open. The flower size is medium. The diameter of the calyx is similar to or larger than the diameter of the corolla. The diameter of the inner calyx is similar to the diameter of the outer calyx. Secondary flowers have five petals which tend to be greater in breadth than in length and these are free or touching but usualy not greatly overlapping one another. The color of the petal corresponds to plate 155C of The R.H.S. Colour Chart.
Plants: Plants of MNUS 248 have crowns that are medium in height with many petioles and usually form a matted row of high plant density and flat to flat-globose habit. Stolons are thin and green proximal to the mother plant and, distally, take on a slight red anthocyann coloration. Stolons may have bracts at the blind nodes. Pubescence on the stolons is sparse to moderate in density and spreading.
Leaves: The leaves have medium to short petioles giving the appearance of a flat-globose to globose canopy. Pubescence on the petioles is sparse and spreading (divaricate). Petiolules may be present on the petiole. The leaves have three leaflets with medium roughness from interveinal blisters and sparse pubescence on the adaxial side of the leaflets, primarily on top of veins. Leaflets are equal in size, broadly elliptic, sparsely pubescent, medium green on top, light green on the bottom with prominent veins. The leaflets of MNUS 248 have a slight waxy bloom on the upper side giving a slightly bluish-green cast. The color of the terminal leaflet corresponds to R.H.S. Colour Chart 146A on the upper side and 147C on the lower side. The terminal leflet is equal in length and width, has a flat to cupped profile, a rounded base, and single teeth that are obtuse on older leaves. Stipules are small to medium in size and pointed.
Fruiting: Results are pesented in Tables 1, 2, 3 and 4 from replicated trials conducted at three Uniersity of Minnesota experiment station sites in Minnesota: The Horticultural Research Center near Excelsior, the North Central Experiment Station at Grand Rapids, and the West Central Experiment Station at Morris. MNUS 248 has generally produced high yields and medium-large berries in trils in Minnesota. The fruit matures in the middle part of the season for short-day cultivars, approximately at the same time as its parent, Glooscap, and other common midseason cultivars grown in Minnesota such as Kent, Jewel and Cavendish. In all trials in Minnesota, MNUS 248 consistently had yields similar to or greater than these other mid-season varieties. Glooscap, a parent of MNUS 248, is currently to most widely planted midseason cultivar among commercial Minnesota producers. MNUS 248 had a higher yield than Glooscap in 16 of 19 trials and a greater average berry weight in 17 of 19 trials. MNUS 248 has been productive on soils of heavy and light texture in matted row production systems. It has had limited testing in hill systems.
Responses to diseases and stresses: Relative to other cultivars tested in Minnesota, MNUS 248 has moderate resistance to the common foliar diseases, leaf spot (Mycosphaerella fragariae Tul.) and powdery mildew (Sphaerotheca macularis Walls ex Fr.) and moderate to high resistance to leaf scorch (Diplocarpon earliana Ell. and Ev.) (Tables 10, 11 and 12). MNUS 248 is resistant to five eastern North American races of Phytophthora fragariae Hickman (Races A-1, A-2, A-3, A-4 and A-6), the fungus that causes red stele root rot (Table 13). It is moderately tolerant, relative to other cultivars tested, of black root rot-causing organisms, Rhizoctonia spp. and Pythium spp. based on field observations in The Horticultural Research Center, Excelsior, MN (Table 11). Plants of MNUS 248 seldom have exhibited symptoms of winter injury in Minnesota trials and have been among the most hardy of varieties and selections tested (as indicated by plant stand, winter stand loss and vigor ratings in Tables 1,2,3 and 4; and winter injury ratings in Table 11). Thus, it is particularly hardy in temperatures to about -40° C., typical of the United States Department of Agriculture Zone Hardiness 3 and 4.
