Abstract
A new and distinct variety characterized by medium to large, green-colored seedless grapes that ripen in late June, approximately two weeks earlier than does the Perlette Seedless Grape (unpatented), when grown in the San Joaquin Valley of Central California. The grapes of this new variety are produced on strong stems and are well adapted to commercial handling.
Description
Latin name of the genius and species of the plant claimed: The claimed plant relates to a new and distinct variety of Vitis vinifera to be known as ‘Sheegene-7’.
Variety denomination
This invention relates to a new discovery and asexual propagation of a new variety of Vitis vinifera. The new variety was first hybridized by Timothy P. Sheehan of Porterville, Calif. in 2000. The pollen parent is ‘Brickeys Best’ (unpatented) and the seed parent is ‘Red Globe’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,787); the new variety first flowed in 2003. The new variety was asexually propagated in the dormant season of 2003, grafted on ‘Harmony’, virus-free rootstock near Fowler, Calif. Four vines were planted at that time in a variety block of Vitis vinifera located near Fowler, Calif., in the San Joaquin Valley of Central California. The new variety closely resembles ‘Perlette Seedless’ (unpatented) but the grapes are larger and mature approximately two weeks earlier. The new variety has been shown to maintain its distinguishing characteristics through asexual propagation.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of grape which will hereinafter be denominated as ‘Sheegene-7’ and more particularly as a grapevine which produces a medium to large, green-colored seedless grape, which is mature for commercial harvesting and shipping during the fourth week of June in the San Joaquin Valley of Central California. The new invention most nearly resembles ‘Perlette Seedless’ (unpatented) but it produces a larger grape that matures approximately two weeks earlier.
The ‘Sheegene-7’ grapevine is characterized by producing a medium to large, green-colored seedless grape that is mature for harvesting and shipment during the last week of June in the San Joaquin Valley of Central California. The new variety can be compared to the ‘Thompson Seedless’ (unpatented)) but the grapes mature about two weeks earlier, among other distinguishing characteristics.
The accompanying drawing is a color photograph displaying smaller leaves, tendrils and a terminal, a grape cluster showing the shape of a mature cluster, along side is a secondary small cluster and leaf and stem, below that is another small immature cluster and to the left are four grapes cut in half showing color of flesh and shape of the berry. On the bottom of the drawing is a short section of a mature branch and droppping nodes.
Referring more to the horticultural description of the new and distinct variety of grapevine, the following description has been observed under the ecological conditions prevailing at the origin vineyard which is located east of Fowler, Calif., in the San Joaquin Valley of Central California.
