Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of primocane-fruiting raspberry named ‘HFG 1359’. The new variety reliably provides balanced, heavy crop load on both primocanes and floricanes, with large, broad conic, firm, semi-matte, pinkish-red colored berries suited for the fresh market. Plants possess high vigor and produce high numbers of spawn.

Description

Latin name of the genus and species of the plant claimed: Rubus idaeus L.
Variety denomination: ‘HFG 1359’.
BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY
The new primocane-fruiting raspberry cultivar designated as ‘HFG 1359’ is shown herein. Botanically known as Rubus idaeus L., the new variety ‘HFG 1359’ resulted from a hand-pollinated cross of female parent ‘Pacific Gema’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 28,080P3), and the male parent ‘Pacific Starlet’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 28,046P3), both of which are releases from the same program. Hand-pollination from this directed cross occurred in April 2012. Seeds from the resulting population were harvested, cleaned, germinated, and subsequently established as seedlings in spring 2013 in Watsonville, California, Santa Cruz County, USA.
‘HFG 1359’ was first identified in October 2013 in a substrate block where seedlings had been planted into 10 L pots the prior spring. The selection ultimately identified as ‘HFG 1359’ was first propagated asexually by crown division (of that original potted ‘HFG 1359’ plant, which became the mother-plant for subsequent ‘HFG 1359’ plants) in December 2013. More specifically, the crown on the original ‘HFG 1359’ plant was parted into basal cane pieces (approximately 15 cm long) with root attached, re-potted and placed inside of a screenhouse. The remaining roots were chilled for 4 weeks and planted inside into an onsite greenhouse to force etiolated shoots. Once rooted, individual etiolated shoots (propagules) were planted into 10-plant plot replicates. Harvest and postharvest data were collected from plots of ‘HFG 1359’ for two years, from 2014 through 2016.
In January 2016, additional root pieces from the original mother-plant were planted into an on-site greenhouse. Two actively growing etiolated shoots were forced from roots, transplanted and potted. Once established, these young plants were sent to Lafayette, OR, USA, where vegetative material was established in vitro for micropropagation. Tissue-cultured plantlets of ‘HFG 1359’ were evaluated extensively over the next several years across diverse environments for performance and genetic stability.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present cultivar, ‘HFG 1359’ offers many advantages over the existing cultivar and maternal parent, ‘Pacific Gema’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 28,080 P3). Particularly for fruit color, ‘HFG 1359’ is noteworthy for its pinkish-red colored berries, as compared to the dark red fruit color of ‘Pacific Gema’. Fruit color of ‘HFG 1359’ is non-darkening under postharvest evaluations, maintaining a fresh appearance. In contrast, ‘Pacific Gema’ darkens substantially during postharvest holding tests. Further, berries of ‘HFG 1359’ detach more easily from the receptacle than ‘Pacific Gema’, which aids in improved harvest efficiency. The non-darkening color, and case of fruit detachment offers significant advantages to growers, who require fast picking speeds to maintain harvest efficiency.
In contrast to the male parent ‘Pacific Starlet (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 28,046 P3), ‘HFG 1359’ is significantly greater in vigor, plant fitness, and provides greater yields. A combination of robust plant growth and consistently greater yields are critical for growers to stay competitive. Like its male parent, ‘HFG 1359’ develops medium-sized raspberries.
The present cultivar, ‘HFG 1359’ was derived from the same parental cross that resulted in ‘PBBrasp1381’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 29,369 P2). It offers reduced acidity and increased sugar content in comparison to ‘PBBrasp1381’. These differences allow ‘HFG 1359’ to offer an improved eating experience for consumers of raspberries that prefer a sweeter perceived flavor. ‘HFG 1359’ is noteworthy for its pinkish-red colored berries, as compared to the darker red fruit color of ‘PBBrasp1381’.
‘HFG 1359’ offers advantages over commercial known variety ‘Finnberry’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 35,090 P2). ‘HFG 1359’ is significantly firmer than ‘Finnberry’ which allows for a longer shelf life. Fruit color of ‘HFG 1359’ is non-darkening under postharvest evaluations, maintaining a fresh appearance. In contrast, ‘Finnberry’ darkens substantially during postharvest holding tests.
Thus, these characteristics help define ‘HFG 1359’ as a new and distinct cultivar of primocane-fruiting raspberry. ‘HFG 1359’ may be recognized by its non-darkening, pinkish-red berries that detach easily from the receptacle, and provide excellent harvesting and packing efficiency for growers.
