Description

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Dendranthema grandiflora (Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat.), identified as MN Sel. 83-267-3.
MN Sel. 83-267-3 is a product of a planned breeding program which had the objective of creating chrysanthemum inbreds to increase homozygosity at loci controlling important phenotypic traits and for eventual use as a parent in creating F1 hybrid seed chrysanthemums. The plant originated as a seedling from a self-pollination of MN Sel. 79-214-2 (unnamed and unpatented), made in 1982 at St. Paul, Minn., during the course of breeding efforts in an on-going garden chrysanthemum breeding project. MN Sel. 83-267-3 is a second generation inbred.
MN Sel. 83-267-3 was discovered and selected as one flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross in the fall of 1983, in the St. Paul campus field test plots at the University of Minnesota. The first act of asexual reproduction of MN Sel. 83-267-3 was accomplished when vegetative cuttings were taken in March-April 1984, in a controlled environment in St. Paul, Minn., from the initial selection that had been dug from the field in October 1983. MN Sel. 83-267-3 has been maintained as part of the breeding germplasm for crossing objectives.
In 1987, MN Sel. 83-267-3 was selected to be included in five environments (Chart A) for evaluation as a day neutral (DN) plant. It was established to be a three week short day (SD) response group plant. Under increasingly stringent long day (LD) photoperiods, it was superior to standard greenhouse and garden SD cultivars, as well as garden DN cultivars. Other characteristics that made this plant outstanding were the semidouble decorative flower type, short plant height, and insensitivity to thermophotoperiodic delay in flower bud initiation and development. The distinctive characteristics caused us to select the plant for further testing for production as a greenhouse pot plant.
MN Sel. 83-267-3 has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary significantly with variations in environment such as temperature, light intensity and day length. Under normal growing conditions that satisfy the factors for plant growth, the normal phenotype occurs. However, we have observed that when grown during December through February, with low light levels, the flower color will be uniformly purple under any of the following conditions: 1. 62° F. nights (N), SD photoperiod (0800-1600 hours); 2. 62° F. N, LD photoperiod: natural daylength plus four-hour night interruption (NI) with incandescent light (2200-0200 hours); 3. 62° F. N, LD photoperiod: natural daylength conditions plus 18 hours 400 watt HID-HPS light (0300-2100 hours) and 4. 55° F. N, LD photoperiod: natural daylength plus four-hour NI with incandescent light (2200-0200 hours). These purple flower changes are not sports due to mutation. Descriptions of these changes are included as appropriate. Horticultural examination of selected units initiated since 1983 have demonstrated that the combination of characteristics as herein described for MN Sel. 83-267-3 are firmly fixed and are retained through successive generations of asexual reproduction.
Day Neutrality
Chrysanthemums are quantitative short day (SD) plants for flower bud initiation (FBI) and qualitative (obligate) SD plants for flower bud development (FBD) (Schwabe, 1952). If a SD plant is grown under photoperiods exceeding the 13.5 hour (average) critical SD photoperiod, it will not flower (e.g. continue with FBD after FBI). FBD of SD chrysanthemums is reversibly controlled by red and far-red light. Continuous or intermittent lighting, using either incandescent (red and far-red light) or fluorescent (red light) lights, in the middle of each long dark period (night) inhibits FBI and FBD in SD cyrysanthemums (Cathey and Borthwick, 1970).
All SD chrysanthemums eventually initiate terminal flower buds (i.e. undergo autonomous FBI) under long day (LD) conditions (Langton, 1977). They will not, however, continue with FBD under LD conditions unless they are day neutral (DN). True DN plants are rare. In a DN plant, FBD is not inhibited by LD photoperiods and will continue (following autonomous FBI) for all flower buds (primaries, secondaries, tertiaries, etc.) under any photoperiodic conditions, e.g. SD or any LD (in which the duration of light is longer than the critical SD photoperiod), and with any combination of light quality (red, far-red, red/far-red).

Potential Impact of Day Neutral/Heat Insensitive Cultivars
Day neutral (DN) and heat delay insensitive cultivars could impact greenhouse chrysanthemum production in several ways. Cultivars insensitive to heat delay have already proved useful to the commercial grower, allowing for scheduling of such cultivars under any high temperatures normally incurred in greenhouse production schedules (30°-39° C.) When this trait is coupled with day neutrality, thermophotoperiodic interactions (heat buildup under black cloth used for short day photoperiods) are eliminated, allowing for production in the wide range of temperatures and photoperiods inherent with seasonal and latitudinal changes. Genotypes such as Mn. Sel. 83-267-3 should be adaptable to a wider latitudinal and seasonal production range than currently available heat-delay insensitive cultivars which are not DN.
Since a DN cultivar will flower under any photoperiod, there is no need for chrysanthemum growers to manipulate the environment to induce flowering. Manual or automated photoperiodic black cloth, used to induce short days for flowering, would become unnecessary and/or obsolete. This would eliminate the costs of initial investments in the black cloth system, maintenance and depreciation, as well as the labor involved in operating the system twice daily. In addition, the commercial production protocols of 2-3 weeks of long days for vegetative growth, followed by 8+ weeks of short days for flower bud initiation and development would be unnecessary. A DN cultivar does not need to be moved into long and then short day photoperiods for flowering. Rather, such cultivars could be flowered under naturally long daylengths (spring to fall) and supplemental long day lighting could be added during winter months (low light conditions and short day photoperiods) or they could be flowered using current production schedules until growers phase out investments in existing black cloth systems.

DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW PLANT
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be basic characteristics of MN Sel. 83-267-3 which, in combination, distinguish this chrysanthemum as a new and distinct cultivar.
