A new and distinct blackberry cultivar that originated from seed produced from a cross between the thornless maternal blackberry plant ‘ORDS 2707-1’ (unpatented) and the thornless paternal blackberry plant ‘ORDS 2785-2’ (unpatented)). This new blackberry cultivar can be distinguished by its high yields of small-to-medium sized, uniformly shaped, glossy, and distinctly conical berries that can be machine harvested with good firmness and quality for a trailing type of blackberry. The berries are well suited for processing, with an excellent flavor characterized by mild sweetness, and a good sugar/acid balance. The new and distinct blackberry variety has fruit that are borne on vigorous canes which combine two distinct sources of genetic thornlessness (‘Austin Thornless’, ‘Lincoln Logan’) from the respective female and male parent.

The invention further relates to Rubus plants produced using the methods and compositions of the invention.

This invention relates to methods for modifying flowering time and timing of fruit production in a Rubus plant. In addition, the invention relates to plants produced by the methods described herein.

A new and distinct primocane-fruiting red raspberry cultivar that originated from seed produced from a cross between the primocane-fruiting red raspberry plant ‘Caroline’ and the red raspberry plant ORUS 4099-1, the latter of which is a sibling of the recent cultivar ‘Kokanee’. This new red raspberry cultivar can be distinguished by its high yields of bright colored, medium sized berries with low defects, excellent firmness and fruit quality, and a unique flavor that is both tangy and aromatic, with a good balance to tartness and sweetness. The berries are well suited for the fresh market, and, due to their ability to be picked at early/pink stages with good flavor and continue ripening in storage with respect to color, they may offer some additional benefit for packing/shipping as a fresh market variety.
