Abstract

This invention is a new and distinct grapevine variety denominated ‘IFG Forty-six’. The new grapevine is characterized by producing naturally large size oblong seedless green berries having a very crisp texture, thin skin and which ripen in late season and are tolerant of rain during ripening. Berries are borne on large size clusters which are somewhat tight and require gibberellin to thin.

Description

Latin name of the genus and species claimed: Vitis interspecific hybrid.
Variety Denomination: ‘IFG FORTY-SIX’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The new and distinct Grapevine plant described and claimed herein originated from a hand pollinated cross of the interspecific hybrid ‘Arkansas 2756’ (not patented) with pollen of ‘IFG 104-253’(U.S. Plant Pat. No. 20,377) hybridized in May 2008. The abortive seed traces were subsequently embryo cultured and the resulting 107 seedlings were planted in the field in April 2009. The present variety of grapevine was selected as a single plant in September 2011 and was first asexually propagated by hardwood cuttings in December 2011 near Delano, Kern County, Calif. These resulting cuttings produced second generation plants that were planted during April 2012 near Delano, Kern County, Calif. and were observed for seven years and found to reproduce true-to-type.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The new grapevine ‘IFG Forty-six’ is characterized by producing naturally large size oblong seedless green berries having a very crisp texture, thin skin and which ripen in late season and are tolerant of rain during ripening. Berries are borne on large size clusters which are somewhat tight and require gibberellin to thin. Berries are responsive to gibberellic acid applications to increase berry size. To the inventor's knowledge, the known variety to which the new grapevine variety is most similar is the ‘IFG Forty-two’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 31,746). ‘IFG Forty-six’ differs from the ‘IFG Forty-two’ by having an oblong shape as opposed to the narrow ellipsoid shape of ‘IFG Forty-two’, by having slightly less crisp flesh texture, and by having a heavier more dense cluster. ‘IFG Forty-six’ is also somewhat similar to ‘Autumn King’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 16,284) but differs from ‘Autumn King’ by having much firmer, crisp berry flesh texture, by having a slightly smaller berry size, by having oblong as opposed to ovoid shaped berries and by being able to produce large crops on spur pruned vines as opposed to requiring cane pruning. ‘IFG Forty-six’ is also somewhat similar to the Thompson seedless variety (not patented) but differs by having much larger, firmer berries, by being able to be spur pruned rather than requiring cane pruning, by being more tolerant of rain during ripening and by ripening approximately eight weeks after ‘Thompson Seedless’. ‘IFG Forty-six’ differs from its maternal parent, the ‘Arkansas 2756’ by producing larger more oblong berries as opposed to the smaller more oval berries of ‘Arkansas 2756’, by having a more desirable yellow-green color as opposed to the darker green color of ‘Arkansas 2756’, and by exhibiting less flesh browning than ‘Arkansas 2756’. It differs from its pollen parent, the ‘IFG 104-253’, by producing slightly larger, more firm berries, by having a more open canopy with weaker lateral shoot growth and by ripening approximately eight weeks later.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
The accompanying photographic drawing illustrates in full color ‘IFG Forty-six’. The photograph was taken outdoors with indirect lighting. The colors are as nearly true as is reasonably possible in a color representation of this type.
The left side of the drawing illustrates a mature leaf.
A mature fruit cluster is represented in the center of the drawing along with a typical berry in cross section.
A young shoot tip can be seen on the right side of the drawing.
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
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 R.H.S. Colour Chart, published in 2015 by The Royal Horticultural Society, London, England.
Throughout this specification, subjective description values conform to those set forth by the UPOV International Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants publication ‘Grapevine Vitis L. Guidelines’.
