Abstract
The present invention provides a new and distinct strawberry variety designated as ‘Zarina’ (105218).
Description
Latin name of the genus and species: Fragaria×ananassa.
Varietal denomination: ‘ZARINA’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct early day-neutral strawberry variety designated as ‘ZARINA’ (a.k.a. ‘105218’). This new variety is the result of a controlled-cross between a female parent cultivar designated ‘1007’ and a male parent cultivar designated ‘880’ (both unpatented, proprietary cultivars) made by the inventor and first fruited in Watsonville, Calif. growing fields.
Following selection and during testing, the plant was originally designated ‘105218’ and subsequently named ‘ZARINA’. The new variety of ‘ZARINA’ was asexually reproduced via runners (stolons) by the inventor at Watsonville, Calif. Asexual propagules from the original source have been tested in Watsonville growing fields and to a limited extent, growing fields in low and high elevation. The properties of this variety were found to be transmissible by such asexual reproduction. The cultivar is stable and reproduces true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
This invention relates to a new and distinctive day-neutral type cultivar designated as ‘ZARINA’, but may be considered a weak day-neutral in that it is somewhat similar to a short day. It is primarily adapted to the climate and growing conditions of the central coast of California. This region provides the necessary temperatures required for it to produce a strong vigorous plant and to remain in fruit production from April through October. The nearby Pacific Ocean provides the needed humidity and moderate day temperatures and evening chilling to maintain fruit quality for the production months.
The following traits in combination distinguish strawberry variety ‘Ginza’ from the known strawberry varieties. Plants for the botanical measurements in the present application were grown as annuals. In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 1995 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
The following are the most outstanding and distinguishing characteristics of this new variety when grown under normal conditions in Watsonville, Calif.
-
- High-yield, and
- Large Fruit
The produced fruit is attractive and of excellent quality. Produced fruit is pink-red to light-red at maturity, medium to large in size, firm, conical to cylindrical in shape with a smooth surface lacking creases. Seeds may be slightly sunken below the surface.
‘ZARINA’ is primarily adapted to the growing conditions of the central coast of California, characterized by foliage small to medium in size and medium green in color. Production generally begins in April and produces continually into October with 40% to 50% of its production in the months of August through September.
‘ZARINA’ is different from strawberry variety ‘BOB’, a.k.a. ‘105626’ and strawberry variety ‘GINZA’, a.k.a. ‘102011’ disclosed in the co-pending applications. The table below shows differences among these varieties.

When ‘ZARINA’ is compared to the proprietary female parent ‘1007’, it is similar in size. ‘ZARINA’ produces much more fruit and with seeds less indented.
When ‘ZARINA’ is compared to the proprietary male parent ‘880’, it is shorter and produces a higher yield with a later harvest interval.
When ‘ZARINA’ is compared to ‘Albion’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 16,228), ‘ZARINA’ is a smaller plant but produces a similar yield with comparable fruit size.
The accompanying color photographs depict various characteristics of the ‘ZARINA’ cultivar at various stages of development as nearly true as possible to make color reproductions.
This invention relates to a new and distinctive early producing day-neutral (ever-bearing) type cultivar designated as ‘ZARINA’. ‘ZARINA’ is typical of day-neutral strawberry cultivars and produces fruit regardless of the day length when treated appropriately in moderate, coastal climates. ‘ZARINA's’ fruit is medium to large in size, that is relatively firm to very firm with its shape conical to cylindrical with seeds slightly sunken; color is light orange to medium red at maturity.
Among the characteristics that distinguish the new variety from the other closely related varieties are the timing of fruiting, plant vigor, position of the inflorescences, leaf morphology, leaf size, leaf density, leaf color, and disease and pest resistance.
‘ZARINA’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions, and the phenotype may vary significantly with variations in environment. The following observations, measurements, and comparisons describe this plant as grown at California, when grown in the field, unless otherwise noted. As stated above, the color determination is in accordance with The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 1995 Edition, except where general color terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. Plants for the botanical measurements in the present application are annual plants.
