Selection APF-1 (non-patented, unreleased genotype)×A-2002 (non-patented, unreleased genotype) is provided.

Description

Latin name: Rubus subgenus Rubus Watson.
BACKGROUND
The new cultivar of blackberry called ‘A-2312’ is described herein. The new cultivar originated from a hand-pollinated cross of Ark. Selection APF-1×A-2002 made in 2000. The seeds resulting from this controlled hybridization were germinated in a greenhouse in the spring of 2001 and planted in a field near Clarksville, Ark. (West-Central Arkansas). The seedlings fruited in the summer of 2002 and one seedling, designated ‘A-2312’, was selected for its firm, large, sweet fruit with excellent postharvest handling potential, attractive fruit appearance, very good flavor, excellent plant health, potential reduced chilling requirement compared to other cultivars, and high yields.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The new and distinct cultivar of blackberry originated from a hand-pollinated cross of Ark. Selection APF-1 (non-patented, unreleased genotype; female)×A-2002 (non-patented, unreleased genotype; male) made in 2000 and located near Clarksville, Ark. (West-Central Arkansas). The botanical designation of the new cultivar of blackberry is Rubus subgenus Rubus Watson.
The seeds resulting from this controlled hybridization were germinated in a greenhouse in the spring of 2001 and planted in a field near Clarksville, Ark. The seedlings fruited in the summer of 2002 on floricanes and one seedling, designated ‘A-2312’, was selected for its firm, large, sweet fruit with excellent postharvest handling potential, attractive fruit appearance, very good flavor, excellent plant health, potential reduced chilling requirement compared to other cultivars, and high yields.
During 2002, the original plant selection was propagated asexually from root cuttings at the above-noted location, and a test row of 10 plants was established. Subsequently, larger test plantings have been established with asexually multiplied plants at two locations in Arkansas. Additionally, the cultivar has been tested at test plots near Lincolnton, N.C., Watsonville, Calif. and in Guatemala with propagation from root cuttings from the Clarksville, Ark. test plot.
The new cultivar has been asexually reproduced annually since 2002 by the use of root cuttings and by rooting adventitious shoots from root cuttings. It forms new shoots from adventitious buds on root cuttings readily. During all asexual multiplication, the characteristics of the original plant have been maintained and no aberrant phenotypes have appeared.
Test plantings over a wide geographic area have shown this new cultivar to be adapted to differing soil and climatic conditions. In testing in Guatemala, the reduced chilling requirement was confirmed due to good performance in this reduced-chilling environment.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying photographs show typical specimens of the new variety in color as nearly true as it is reasonably possible to make in a color illustration of this character.

FIG. 2 is a photograph of ripe ‘A-2312’ fruit.

FIG. 4 is a photograph showing the adaxial side of a primocane leaf.
 DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW CULTIVAR ‘A-2312’
Plants and fruit of this new cultivar differ phenotypically from its parents. The new cultivar is more productive and has larger fruit and reduced chilling requirement compared to both parents. The new cultivar has sweeter fruit that has much better flavor and postharvest handling potential than either of the parent blackberries. Although blackberries (Rubus subgenus Rubus Watson) are highly heterogeneous and outcrossing, and most clones contain genes from more than one species, the new cultivar and its progenitor lines phenotypically exhibit characters predominately of the erect eastern United States species, Rubus allegheniensis Porter (highbush blackberry).
Plants of the new cultivar are vigorous and prolific and row establishment following planting is rapid. Both primocanes and floricanes are erect in growth habit. The canes can be trained to a self-supporting hedgerow although it is beneficial to use a trellis with supporting wires to prevent canes from falling over due to wind or heavy fruit-loads. The plants are thorny. Plants and fruit are moderately resistant to anthracnose [Elsinoe veneta (Burkh.) Jenkins], but plants are susceptible to orange rust [Gymnoconia nitens (Schwein.) F. Kern and H. W. Thurston.]. No screening has been done for resistance to double blossom/rosette [Cercosporella rubi (Wint.) Plakidas]
The floricane bloom period of the new cultivar begins on March 31 (10%) and average bloom lasts 12 days.
Floricane fruit of the new cultivar begins ripening on June 9, 3 days later than ‘Natchez’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 20,891). The average floricane fruiting period is 30-35 days.
Fruit yields of the new cultivar are on average 4.4 kg (9.7 lb/plant), comparable to that of ‘Natchez’, in West-Central Arkansas.
The fruit is elongated conical to blocky, bright glossy black in color, and very attractive. The floricane fruit is large (7-10 g) and 1.0 g larger than ‘Natchez’. Floricane fruit size of the new cultivar is maintained well throughout the entire harvest season. The new cultivar exhibits excellent fruit fertility with full drupelet set. The fruit is firm at maturity, comparable to that of ‘Natchez’. Storage potential of fresh fruit of the new cultivar is comparable to that of ‘Ouachita’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 17,162) and ‘Natchez’ and exceeds that of ‘Prime-Jan’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 15,788) cultivars.
The fresh fruit rates very good in flavor, comparable to ‘Ouachita’ and ‘Natchez’ cultivars. The flavor is very sweet and mildly acidic, with a distinct blackberry aroma. The soluble solids concentration averages 11.9% on shiny black fruit, higher than ‘Natchez’ (9.5%) and ‘Ouachita’ (10.4%).
Floricane fruit and flower clusters are medium-large, cymose, and are mostly borne on the periphery of the plant canopy, providing easy access to harvest. Flower fertility is high and clusters are well filled.
The following is a detailed description of the botanical and pomological characteristics of the subject blackberry. Color data are presented in The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart (1986 2nd edition) designations. Where dimensions, sizes, colors, and other characteristics are given, it is to be understood that such characteristics are approximations of averages set forth as accurately as practicable.
Plants used for botanical data were three years old and grown on a fine sandy loam soil with trickle irrigation near Clarksville, Ark. The plants were fertilized near budbreak (late March on average) with complete or nitrogen fertilizer, and had an additional nitrogen fertilizer application in early July. Primocanes were tipped at approximately 45 inches, and grown in a hedgerow training system. Weeds were controlled with pre- and post-emergence herbicides supplemented with mechanical weed control activities. A single application of liquid lime sulfur was applied to the plants at budbreak, but no other fungicides were used. The descriptions reported herein are from specimens grown near Clarksville, Ark. unless otherwise noted.
