Abstract

A new and distinct grapevine variety ‘Sugrafortysix’ is characterized in that it produces large, red and ovoid berries and has a large bunch size. The berries of ‘Sugrafortysix’ are firm and very juicy. The new variety ‘Sugrafortysix’ is characterized by an earlier harvest date compared to ‘Scarlet Royal’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 16,229).

Description

Latin name of the genus and species claimed: Vitis vinifera.
Variety denomination: ‘SUGRAFORTYSIX’.
BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to the discovery and asexual propagation of a new and distinct variety of grapevine, ‘Sugrafortysix’, as herein described and illustrated. The new variety was first selected as breeder number ‘GR402R’ by Terry A. Bacon in Wasco, Kern County, Calif. in July 2013. The variety was originated by controlled hybridization.
The new variety ‘Sugrafortysix’ is characterized by an early harvest date, the production of a large-sized, red, ovoid berry and a large bunch size. The berries of ‘Sugrafortysix’ are firm and very juicy.
The seed parent is the varietal selection ‘Sugrathirtyfive’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 20,491) and the pollen parent is an unknown breeding variety from bulk pollen. The parent varieties were first crossed in May 2011. The date of first sowing was March 2012, and the date of first flowering was May 2013.
The new variety ‘Sugrafortysix’ was first asexually propagated in December 2013 in Wasco, Kern County, Calif., by Terry A. Bacon using hardwood cuttings.
The new variety ‘Sugrafortysix’ differs from its seed parent ‘Sugrathirtyfive’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 20,491) in that the berries of the new variety are red compared to the green berries for ‘Sugrathirtyfive’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 20,491).
The berry color of the new variety ‘Sugrafortysix’ is similar to ‘Scarlet Royal’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 16,229). However, the harvest start date of the new variety ‘Sugrafortysix’ is about August 11 compared to August 20 for ‘Scarlet Royal’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 16,229). Additionally, the new variety ‘Sugrafortysix’ has an ovoid berry shape compared to an elongated berry shape for ‘Scarlet Royal’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 16,229).
The new ‘Sugrafortysix’ variety has been shown to maintain its distinguishing characteristics through successive asexual propagations by, for example, cuttings.
Variations of the usual magnitude from the characteristics described herein may occur with changes in any of a variety of factors such as growing conditions, irrigation, fertilization, pruning, management and climatic variation.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
The accompanying color photographic illustration shows typical specimens of the foliage and fruit of the present new grape variety ‘Sugrafortysix’.
The illustration shows the upper and lower surface of the leaves and exterior and sectional view of the fruit.
The photographic illustration was taken shortly after the fruit was picked and the colors are as nearly true as is reasonably possible in a color representation of this type.
 DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
Throughout this specification, color names beginning with a small letter signify that the name of that color, as used in common speech, is aptly descriptive. Color names beginning with a capital letter designate values based upon The R.H.S. Colour Chart, published by The Royal Horticultural Society, London, England, 1986.
Many of the descriptive values in this specification are based on and conform to those set forth by the International Board for Plant Genetic Resources Institute Grape Descriptors (Vitis spp.) of 1983 and/or 1997, which was developed in collaboration with the Office International de la Vigne et du Vin (OIV) and the International Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants (UPOV).
The descriptive matter which follows pertains to ‘Sugrafortysix’ plants grown in the vicinity of Wasco, Kern County, Calif. during 2014, and is believed to apply to plants of the variety grown under similar conditions of soil and climate elsewhere.
