Abstract

Description and specifications of a new and distinct cultivar of blackberry plant named ‘A-2491T’ that resulted from a hand-pollinated cross of ‘APF-46’ (non-patented, unreleased genotype) x ‘Natchez’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 20,891). This new cultivar of blackberry plant can be distinguished by its large berries with very good sub-acid fruit flavor, overall high fruit quality with excellent postharvest fruit-handling potential, early season ripening, consistent high yields, and excellent plant health.

Description

Latin name: Rubus subgenus Rubus Watson.
Varietal denomination: ‘A-2491T’.
BACKGROUND
The new floricane-fruiting cultivar of blackberry with the varietal denomination of ‘A-2491T’ is described herein. The new cultivar originated from a hand-pollinated cross of ‘APF-46’ (non-patented, unreleased genotype) x ‘Natchez’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 20,891) made in 2005. The seeds resulting from this controlled hybridization were germinated in a greenhouse in the spring of 2006 and planted in a field near Clarksville, Ark. (West-Central Arkansas). The seedlings fruited in the summer of 2009 and one seedling, designated ‘A-2491T’, was selected for its large berries with very good sub-acid fruit flavor, overall high fruit quality with excellent postharvest fruit-handling potential, early season ripening, consistent high yields, and excellent plant health.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The new cultivar originated from a hand-pollinated cross of ‘APF-46’ (non-patented, unreleased genotype) x ‘Natchez’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 20,891) made in 2005 and located near Clarksville, Ark. (West-Central Arkansas). The botanical designation of the new cultivar of blackberry is Rubus L. subgenus Rubus Watson. The seeds resulting from this controlled hybridization were germinated in a greenhouse in the winter to early spring of 2006 and planted in a field near Clarksville, Ark. The seedlings fruited in the summer of 2009 on floricanes and one seedling, designated ‘A-2491T’, was selected for its large berries with very good sub-acid fruit flavor, overall high fruit quality with excellent postharvest fruit-handling potential, early season ripening, consistent high yields, and excellent plant health.
During 2009, the original plant selection was propagated asexually from root cuttings at the above-noted location, and a test row of 20 plants was established. Subsequently, larger test plantings have been established with asexually multiplied plants at two locations in Arkansas.
The new cultivar has been asexually multiplied annually since 2009 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.
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. The plants were three years old of which the pictures were taken.
FIG. 1 includes three photographs of blackberry canes of ‘A-2491T’ with ripe fruit on the plant.
FIG. 2. is a photograph of ripe fruit of ‘A-2491T’.
FIG. 3 is a photograph showing the abaxial and adaxial sides of a primocane leaf of ‘A-2491T’.
 DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW CULTIVAR ‘A-2491T’
Plants and fruit of this new cultivar differ phenotypically from its parents. The new cultivar has thornless canes, larger fruit, is higher yielding and is floricane fruiting compared to its female parent ‘APF-46’. The new cultivar is lower in fruit acidity and smaller in fruit size than its male parent ‘Natchez’. 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 thornless. Plants and fruit are resistant to anthracnose (Elsinoe veneta (Burkh.) Jenkins), and plants have shown no evidence of susceptibility 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 bloom period of the new cultivar begins on average 27 April for 10% bloom and 7 May for 50% bloom and was very near that of ‘APF-45’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 22,449), ‘Osage’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 26,120) and ‘Ouachita’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 17,162).
Fruit of the new cultivar has an average first harvest date of 9 June and was very near that of ‘Natchez’ and ‘APF-45’, one day earlier than ‘Osage’ and four days earlier than ‘Ouachita’. The average floricane fruiting period is 50 days.
Fruit yields of the new cultivar on floricanes are on average 6.1 kg (13.5 lb/plant), comparable to that for ‘Natchez’ in West-Central Arkansas.
The fruit is long conical shaped, glossy with a uniform black finish. The primary floricane fruit is large (ave. 9.0 g) and comparable to ‘Natchez’ and usually 3.0 g or larger than its similar-season comparison cultivar ‘Osage’, and 2.0 to 2.5 g larger than ‘Ouachita’. Fruit size of the new cultivar can be reduced later in the harvest season, with average secondary and tertiary fruit sizes of 4-5.7 g berries providing for an overall seasonal fruit size average of 6.1 g. The new cultivar exhibits excellent fruit fertility with full drupelet set. Fruit firmness is a noteworthy characteristic as firmness was consistent. Red drupelet reversion was substantially less than ‘Natchez’. The overall postharvest storage potential of fresh fruit of the new cultivar is greater than that of ‘Natchez’.
The dry seed weight for the new cultivar averaged 4.2 mg/seed, slightly smaller than ‘APF-45’ (4.5 mg), ‘Ouachita’ (4.5 mg) and slightly larger than ‘Osage’ (3.8 mg).
The fresh fruit rates very well in flavor and is a noteworthy attribute of the cultivar and is comparable to or exceeding that of ‘Natchez’. Consistent excellent flavor was noted at repeated observations of fruit of this cultivar over the years of evaluation. A primary fruit characteristic of ‘A-2491T’ is reduced acidity (0.89 g/L expressed as citric acid) compared to the more acidic ‘Natchez’ (1.14 g/L). The flavor is sweet and sub-acid, with desirable aromatics. The soluble solids concentration averages 9.2% on shiny black fruit, comparable to ‘APF 45’, ‘Osage’, ‘Natchez’, and ‘Ouachita’. 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 Royal Horticultural Society Color Chart designations (1986 2nd edition). 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 drip irrigation at or 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 1.14 m (45 inches) and grown in a hedgerow training system. Weeds were controlled with pre- and postemergence 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.
