Abstract

This invention relates to a new and distinctive day-neutral type of strawberry designated as ‘San Andreas’. ‘San Andreas’ is a day-neutral (everbearing) cultivar similar to ‘Diamante’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,435) but with higher yield and better quality fruit, better disease resistance and better flavor. It is similar to ‘Albion’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 16,228) for fruit quality but with higher yield, and larger and more attractive fruit.

Description

Genus and species:
The strawberry cultivar of this invention is botanically identified as Fragaria ×ananassa Duch.
Variety denomination: The variety denomination is ‘San Andreas’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a new and distinctive day-neutral type cultivar designated as ‘San Andreas’, which resulted from a cross performed in 2001 between the cultivar ‘Albion’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 16,228) and advanced selection Cal 97.86-1. ‘San Andreas’ was first fruited at the University of California Wolfskill Experimental Orchard, near Winters, Calif. in 2002, where it was selected, originally designated Cal 1.139-2, and propagated asexually by runners. Following selection and during testing, the plant of this selection was designated ‘CN223’ and, later for introduction into commerce, ‘San Andreas’. Asexual propagules from this original source have been tested at the Watsonville Strawberry Research Facility, the South Coast Research and Extension Center, and to a limited extent in grower fields starting in 2005.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
‘San Andreas’ is a day-neutral (everbearing) cultivar similar to ‘Diamante’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,435) but with higher yield and better quality fruit, better disease resistance and better flavor. It is similar to ‘Albion’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 16,228) for fruit quality but with higher yield, and larger and more attractive fruit.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
The figures depict various characteristics of the ‘San Andreas’ cultivar.
FIG. 1 shows the general flowering and fruiting characteristics of the plant in a field planting.

FIG. 3 shows representative mid-season fruit.
 DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
‘San Andreas’ is typical of day-neutral strawberry cultivars and produces fruit regardless of day length when treated appropriately in and, subtropical climates. ‘San Andreas’ is moderate to weak in expressing the day-neutral character, being comparable in flowering response to ‘Diamante’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,435) and ‘Albion’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 16,228), and less so than ‘Fern’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,267) or ‘Irvine’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,172). The production pattern for ‘San Andreas’ is similar to that for ‘Albion’. ‘San Andreas’ will be of special interest for winter plantings and in summer plantings where ‘Diamante’ and ‘Albion’ have been successful.
  • Plants and foliage:
Fruiting plants of ‘San Andreas’ are similar in morphology to ‘Diamante’ and ‘Albion’ although somewhat larger early in the season. ‘San Andreas’ plants are similar in appearance to plants of ‘Aromas’, but more compact and smaller throughout the season. Comparative statistics for foliar characters near mid-season are given for ‘San Andreas’ and the three comparison cultivars in Table I. Individual leaflets for ‘San Andreas’ are similar in shape and size to the comparison cultivars, but are somewhat longer than broad, and less rounded. Leaves (including petioles) for ‘San Andreas’ are longer than those for ‘Diamante’ and ‘Albion’, mostly due to greater petiole length. Petioles are generally thinner than those of the comparison cultivars and tend to have heavy pubescence. The adaxial (upper) and abaxial (lower) surfaces of leaves for ‘San Andreas’ are similar in color to the comparison cultivars at mid season, but slightly darker early in the season. Leaves of ‘San Andreas’ have similar concavity to ‘Aromas’, ‘Diamante’, and ‘Albion’.
  • Disease and pest reaction:
‘San Andreas’ is moderately resistant to powdery mildew (Sphaerotheca macularis), Anthracnose crown rot (Colletotrichum acutatum), Verticillium wilt (Verticillium dahliae), Phytophthora crown rot (Phytophthora cactorum) and common leaf spot (Ramularia tulasnei) (Table 3). When treated properly, it has tolerance to two-spotted spider mites (Tetranychus urticae) equal to that for the comparison cultivars. ‘San Andreas’ is tolerant to strawberry viruses encountered in California.

  • Flowering, fruiting, fruit, and production characteristics:
‘San Andreas’ is similar to other California day-neutral cultivars (e. g. ‘Diamante’ and ‘Albion’) in that it will flower independently of day length, given appropriate temperature and horticultural conditions. Comparative statistics for flower and fruit characters near mid-season are given for ‘San Andreas’ and the three cultivars in Table 4. The primary flowers for ‘San Andreas’ are slightly larger than those of the comparison cultivars with a calyx that is distinctly larger than the corolla on primary fruit. The sepals are similar in length and shape to those of the comparison cultivars. The calyx for ‘San Andreas’ varies in position but is usually more reflexed than for ‘Aromas’ or ‘Diamante’, similar to that of ‘Albion’. The fruit shape for ‘San Andreas’ can vary, but is typically a medium to long and highly symmetrical conic. It is easily distinguished by fruit shape from ‘Aromas’ (shortened and rounded conic), ‘Diamante’ (usually a flat conic) or ‘Albion’ (long conic). ‘San Andreas’ usually has a greater proportion of symmetrical fruit than the comparison cultivars, especially early in the fruiting season. External fruit color for ‘San Andreas’ is slightly lighter than ‘Aromas’ or ‘Albion’, distinctly darker than for ‘Diamante’. Internal color is somewhat darker with greater red pigment than for the comparison cultivars (Table 2). Achenes vary from yellow to dark red, but are usually red, and range from even with the fruit surface to slightly indented.
‘San Andreas’ has been tested under a variety of cultural regimes, and optimal performance is obtained when nursery treatments and nutritional programs similar to those for ‘Albion’, ‘Diamante’, and ‘Aromas’ are used.
