Abstract

A new and distinct variety of grapevine characterized by the production of medium, green-colored seedless grapes that mature in late August when grown in the San Joaquin Valley of Central California. The grapes of this new variety are produced on strong woody stems and branches 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-17’.
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
The claimed plant is not subject of a related application.
STATEMENT OF ANY FEDERALLY-SPONSORED RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
The claimed plant is not subject of Federally-sponsored research or development.
VARIETY DENOMINATION
The new variety of Vitis vinifera is the result of hybridization of ‘Princess’ (unpatented), the pollen parent, and ‘Red Globe’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,787), the seed parent. The new variety was first hybridized by Timothy P. Sheehan in the Spring of 2000. The new variety was asexually propaged in the dormant season of 2003, grafted on virus-free rootstock in a Vitis vinifera variety block located East of Fowler, Calif. The new variety was planted as rooted cuttings in the dormant season of 2006 in a Vitis vinifera variety block located several miles South of McFarland, Calif. The new variety produces a medium, green-colored seedless grape with a sweet flavor. The new variety has been shown to maintain its distinguishing characteristics through asexual propagation.
The new variety is distinguished from its pollen parent, ‘Princess’ (unpatented), in that the new variety produces green-colored seedless grapes, as compared to the white-colored seedless grapes produced by its pollen parent, ‘Princess’ (unpatented). The new variety is distinguished from its seed parent, ‘Red Globe’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,787), in that the new variety produces medium sized green-colored seedless grapes, as compared to its seed parent, ‘Red Globe’(U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,787), that produces exceptionally large red-colored seeded grapes.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of grapevine that produces a medium, green-colored seedless grape that matures in late August when grown in the San Joaquin Valley of Central California.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The ‘Sheegene-17’ grapevine is characterized by producing a medium, green-colored seedless grape that has a sweet flavor and it is productive and mature for harvesting and shipment in late August when grown in the San Joaquin Valley of Central California. The new variety can be compared to ‘Thompson Seedless’ (unpatented) but the grapes produced by the new variety are larger and mature two to three weeks later, among other distinguishing characteristics.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
The accompanying drawing is a color photograph of the new variety of grapevine displaying leaves, tendrils, shoots, mature grapes, late berry cluster, mature berry cluster, and four grapes cut in half.
Across the top portion of the photograph is a late berry cluster with a young shoot to the right of the cluster.
Directly below the cluster and to the left is an immature shoot with leaves.
At the center of the photograph is a mature berry cluster with a mature cane and nodes to the right of the cluster.
Just below the mature berry cluster are four grapes cut longitudinally and horizontally displaying the heart and pulp.
Below the cut grapes are leaves displaying the upper and lower surfaces.
