Research Project:
Testing and Evaluation of Berry Crops for Commercial Production in the Pacific Northwest
Location: Horticultural Crops Research
Project Number: 5358-21000-037-03
Project Type:
Specific Cooperative Agreement
Start Date: Jul 22, 2005
End Date: Sep 30, 2009
Objective:
Cooperate with plant breeders in the Pacific Northwest in testing and developing commercially acceptable berry crop cultivars. Research production systems and evaluate how advanced selections and new releases respond to these systems in terms of yield and quality. Study genotypic variation in yield components and hardiness of blackberries to better understand potential sources of variation.
Approach:
Yield component data will be collected from advanced selections planted in different production systems to better understand how these factors change with cultural system, which components can be manipulated to improve yield, and what to look for in new selections. Documents SCA with Oregon State University. Formerly 5358-21000-036-16S (6/2008).
