VINTAGE, tested as ORUS 2786-5, was selected in Corvallis, Oregon in 2003 from a population grown from open pollinated seed of `Isabel' red raspberry. 'Isabel' is a patented cultivar (PP9,340) developed by Sweetbriar Development, Inc. (Watsonville, CA) that has proprietary selections as parents. VINTAGE is being released primarily due to its outstanding fresh fruit quality, especially flavor and bright color, in a primocane fruiting red raspberry that is suited for the fresh market.
VINTAGE has been evaluated most extensively in trials at Oregon State University's North Willamette Research and Extension Center (Aurora, Ore.; OSU-NWREC) and in USDA-ARS plots in Corvallis, Ore. VINTAGE plants are similarly vigorous to 'Heritage' but the canes tend to be not as stiffly erect or as tall. The canes have prickles that are denser basipetally and tend to be slightly less prickly than `Heritage'. The canes have shown no serious cane diseases. VINTAGE ripens ahead of `Heritage' but later than `Autumn Bliss', `Chinook', and 'Rafzaqu' ('HimboTop' (R) ). The average harvest date of 5% ripe fruit is around 23-25 August, of 50% ripe fruit is 9-18 September, and of 95% ripe fruit is 7-8 October in the Willamette Valley of Oregon. VINTAGE has yields that are comparable to `Heritage', being slightly less in one trial and slightly greater in another. VINTAGE has consistently produced yields around 1.2-1.9 kg/plant.
VINTAGE fruit are similar in shape to `Heritage' but they are slightly less conical and more rounded. The fruit is attractive, with uniformly sized, shaped, and arranged drupelets. While the fruit are rated as very good for drupelet coherence, they may not hold together as tightly as `Heritage' but they have a comparable firmness. The fruit separate more easily from the plant than those of 'Heritage'. The fruit are medium size (3.2-3.4g) and 20-35% larger than `Heritage'. One of the most outstanding characteristics of VINTAGE is its bright red, attractive color, much brighter and less dark than the fruit of `Heritage'. VINTAGE fresh fruit are very sweet and rate as excellent for flavor, much better than those of `Heritage'.
VINTAGE fruit have a combination of excellent sweetness (soluble solids 12.4-12.8%), moderate pH (3.41-3.45) and a moderate titratable acidity (11.5-11.9) helping to give the fruit a sweet flavor but the lower titratable acidity may prevent it from being a good processing berry. In general the soluble solids and pH are higher than those of `Heritage' and the titratable acidity almost half of those for `Heritage' fruit. The fruit texture when the fruit are eaten is more pleasant, less dry and seedy, than those of `Heritage'.
VINTAGE is introduced as a very sweet, outstanding flavored, bright red, and large primocane fruiting red raspberry with excellent overall quality for the fresh market and yields comparable to current industry standards. VINTAGE should be adapted wherever other primocane fruiting raspberries can be successfully grown. | 1860779 | PI 667656 |

‘Onyx’ is a new trailing blackberry (Rubus subg. Rubus Watson) cultivar from the U.S. Department of Agriculture–Agricultural Research Service (USDA-ARS) breeding program in Corvallis, OR, released in cooperation with the Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station. ‘Onyx’ is a vigorous, somewhat erect, thorny, trailing blackberry that produces moderate yields of uniform, firm, and sweet high quality fruit with excellent flavor that are suited for the local and wholesale fresh market. ‘Onyx’ is being released primarily as a result of its outstanding fresh fruit quality in the late season.
‘Onyx’, tested as ORUS 1523-4, was selected in Corvallis, OR, in 1997 from a cross made in 1995 of OSC 1466 and ORUS 1117-11. OSC 1466 was selected in 1966 and has always been noted for its productivity and outstanding fruit quality, especially flavor, but its fruit are small. ORUS 1117-11 is a thornless selection with high yields of late-ripening fruit with excellent quality. ‘Onyx’ is being released
primarily as a result of its outstanding fresh fruit quality in the late season.

Description and specifications of a new and distinct blackberry cultivar which originated from seed produced by a hand pollinated cross of OSC 1466 (non-patented)×ORUS 1117-11 (non-patented) is provided. This new trailing blackberry cultivar can be distinguished by its high yields, large fruit size, excellent fresh fruit quality, mid-late season fruit ripening, and healthy plants.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to the discovery of a new and distinct cultivar of blackberry hybrid plant botanically know as a Rubus subgenus Rubus hybrid and herein referred to as ‘ONYX’, as herein described and illustrated.
The new and distinct cultivar of blackberry originated from a hand pollinated cross of OSC 1466 (non-patented)×ORUS 1117-11 (non-patented).
Plants and fruit of this new cultivar differ phenotypically from its parents. The new cultivar is later ripening and larger in fruit size than the female parent OSC 1466 (non-patented) and has firmer, more uniformly shaped fruit than the male parent ORUS 1117-11 (non-patented). The new cultivar also has thorny canes, unlike the ORUS 1117-11 (non-patented) parent. The new cultivar has higher yields of firmer fruit than either of the parent blackberries. Although blackberries (Rubus subgenus Rubus) are highly heterogeneous and outcrossing, and most clones contain genes from more than one species, the new cultivar and its progenitor lines phenotypically exhibit characters predominately of the trailing western United States species, Rubus ursinus Cham et. Schltdl. (western trailing blackberry). Rubus idaeus L., (red raspberry), R. armeniacus Focke (Himalaya blackberry). R. baileyanus Britton, and R. argutus Link Porter (highbush blackberry) can all be found in the pedigree of this new cultivar.
The seeds resulting from this controlled hybridization were germinated in a greenhouse in the winter of 1995 and planted in a field in Corvallis, Oreg. in the spring. The seedlings fruited during the summer of 1997 and one, designated ORUS 1523-4, was selected for its mid-late season ripening, large fruit size, excellent fruit quality, and excellent plant health.
During 1997, the original plant selection was propagated asexually from dormant, hardwood cane cuttings from the above noted location. An observational plot of 3 plants was established at the above noted location and at Aurora, Oreg. in the spring of 1998. Subsequently, larger replicated plantings were established Aurora, Oreg. with asexually multiplied plants.
The new cultivar has been asexually multiplied annually since 1997 by the use of cane cuttings. The new cultivar was established in vitro from a cane cutting and microcuttings have been taken and rooted from this sort of culture. During all asexual multiplication, the characteristics of the original plant have been maintained and no aberrant phenotypes have appeared.
Test plantings over a wide geographic area have shown this new cultivar to be adapted to differing soil and climatic conditions although it is best adapted to Mediterranean type climates where trailing blackberries are typically grown.
Plants of the new cultivar are vigorous and prolific and establish well after planting. Primocanes and floricanes have typical trailing blackberry growth habit. The plants are thorny with size and density of thorns being less than ‘Marion’ (non-patented) at the base, comparable at midpoint, and more thorny at the terminus. The primocanes emerge and grow vertically for 30-60 cm before arching to the ground and growing along the ground. Primocanes are typically lifted and tied onto a trellis system and after going through the dormant period break bud, flower and fruit as floricanes. Plants show no particular susceptibility to anthracnose [Elsinoe veneta (Burkh.) Jenkins], septoria (Septoria rubi Westend), cane blight (Leptosphaeria coniothyrium ([Fuckel] Sacc.) spur blight (Didymella applanata [Niessl] Sacc.), and purple blotch (Septocyta ruborum [Lib.] Petr.) nor have they tested positive for Raspberry bushy dwarf virus. The bloom period of the new cultivar averages 4-5 days later than the ‘Marion’ (non-patented) and 8-11 days later than ‘Black Diamond’ (non-patented).
Fruit of the new cultivar begin ripening 19 days later than ‘Siskiyou’ (non-patented) and 9 days later than ‘Marion’ (non-patented). The average harvest date of 5% ripe fruit is 9 July, of 50% ripe fruit is 16 July, and 1 August for 95% ripe fruit in the Willamette Valley of Oregon and the midpoint of harvest is 7 days later than for ‘Marion’ (non-patented). Fruit yields of the new cultivar are usually around 14, 309 kg/hectare (6.39 tons/acre) and are comparable to those for ‘Marion’ (non-patented). Yields are consistent from year to year.
The fruit is conical, with very uniformly sized, shaped and arranged drupelets giving the fruit a very uniform, attractive shape. The fruit are bright glossy black. The fruit is medium large (6.1 g) and typically 1 g larger than ‘Marion’ (non-patented) and 0.5 g smaller than ‘Siskiyou’ (non-patented). The new cultivar maintains a uniform fruit size throughout the harvest season. The new cultivar exhibits excellent fruit fertility with full drupelet set in contrast to ‘Siskiyou’ (non-patented), which can have poorly set fruit tips; it also has much better drupelet set than ‘Marion’ (non-patented). The fruit is firm at maturity, rating much higher than ‘Marion’ (non-patented) and comparable to ‘Metolius’ (non-patented) and ‘Siskiyou’ (non-patented).
The fresh fruit rates very good in flavor, being comparable to ‘Obsidian’ (non-patented), ‘Metolius’ (non-patented), and ‘Kotata’ (non-patented) but slightly lower than ‘Marion’ (non-patented) or ‘Siskiyou’ (non-patented). The flavor is sweet with a nice acidic balance with aroma typical of western blackberries. The fruit texture is comparable to ‘Marion’ (non-patented), ‘Metolius’ (non-patented), ‘Obsidian’ (non-patented), and ‘Siskiyou’ (non-patented) and the seeds are much less noticeable than in ‘Chester Thornless’ (non-patented) and ‘Ouachita’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 17,162). The soluble solids concentration averages 13.7% on shiny black fruit, similar to ‘Marion’ (non-patented) (13.3%) and lower than ‘Navaho’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 6,679), (15.6%). Dry seed weight averages 3.28 mg/seed, and seeds are smaller than those of ‘Marion’ (non-patented) and ‘Black Diamond’ (non-patented) (each 3.95 mg seed).
Fruit clusters are medium-long (similar to ‘Marion’ (non-patented)), cymose, and are mostly borne on the periphery of the plant canopy, providing easy access to harvest. Flower fertility is high and clusters are well filled.
The new cultivar has been named the ONYX cultivar.

Agricultural Research Center, and the Idaho Agricultural Experiment Station. 'Coho' is high yielding and late-ripening, and produces large, bright red, very firm fruit that separate easily from the receptacle. The cultivar is best suited for fresh markets, although it has been reported to be excellent when individually quick frozen (IQF; commercial processor, personal communication). The 'Coho' ripening season is later than 'Tulameen' and slightly earlier than 'Kitsilano' and it produces larger fruit than the latter.'Coho' is named after the salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch Walbaum) that is renowned for its brilliant red body coloration and late spawning runs.The fruit are bright red; not nearly as dark as 'Willamette' nor as light-colored as 'Chilcotin'. Fruit flavor was rated excellent. Fruit are similar to 'Tulameen' in firmness and were rated the firmest of all compared cultivars. The combination of firmness, flavor, and bright red, nondarkening color suggests that 'Coho' should be excellent for the fresh market. 'Coho' has not been tested for suitability to mechanical harvesting, but in subjective evaluations based on ease of separation, it seems similar to 'Chilliwack', which is considered to be easily mechanically harvested.

The seedlings first lightly bore fruit during the summer of 1986. The subject cultivar was selected for its thornless cane, vigorous, traling vines, high berry productivity, and large, firm black fruit of high quality. During 1987, the above described cultivar was propagated asexually both by cane layering and cane cuttings for the purpose of further testing and evaluations by research horticulturists at Oregon State University's Department of Horticulture. The researchers found the cultivar to have outstanding potential.In 1989 Oregon State University's North Willamette Agricultural Experiment Station at Aurora, Oreg., included samples of the cultivar in their blackberry test plots. Test at other locations show that the cultivar may adapt to other areas of the Pacific Northwest outside of Northwestern Oregon.During all asexual multiplication, the characteristics of the original plant have been maintained and no aberrant phenotypes have appeared.Plants of the cultivar are highly vigorous and develop large diameter canes. Although nominally thornless, the 3 lower 12 -to 18-inch bases of the canes do contain small, soft incipient type spines similar to those found on raspberry canes. These small spines tend to disappear completely from the canes at a point about 12 to 18 inches above the ground level. The plants are genetically thornless, having genes for thornlessness derived from its distant "Austin Thornless" ancestor. Plants are moderately resistant to blackberry leaf and cane spot (Septoria rubi) which is a major cause of blighted foliage on a number of other Northwest adapted blackberry cultivarsFruit of the new cultivar ripens in mid-July about the same time as "Marion," a leading Northwest standard cultivar. The harvest period is about 20 days duration. The plants have never suffered from spring frosts and the canes have survived winter temperatures of 5* F. The fruit varies in shape from bluntly cone shaped to bluntly pointed cylindrical. The length of the fruit usually exceeds its diameter by about 40%. Fruit clusters are medium large and borne on long stout stems which facilitate easy picking. Flower fertility is high and -fruit drupelets tend to fill out the berries completely.

LEWIS has had superior performance in New Zealand in research trials and grower's production fields. In NZ, LEWIS had very good yields of medium-large, medium-red, very firm and shiny berries that seperate from the plant easily. The plants produce a moderate number of canes with medium vigor and thickness and few spines. The main defeciencies of LEWIS in NZ are its susceptibility to rust (Phragmidium rubi-idaei Karsten), root rot (Phytophthora cactorum Shroeter) and budmoth (Heterocrossa rubophago Dugdale). Lewis is considered outstanding for the fresh market and is recommended for some Northern and most Central and Southern districts of NZ.LEWIS has performed well in Oregon and Washington; fruit yields are similar to 'Meeker,' but with larger and firmer fruit. pH is similar to 'Meeker' and 'Willamete'; greater soluble solids and intermediate titratable acidity and anthocyanin levels. Fruits ripen 2-5 days later than 'Meeker.' Fruits can be mechanically harvested.LEWIS has tested positive to raspberry bushy dwarf virus after several years in the field, however, it appears no more susceptible than 'Meeker.' In OR and WA, LEWIS has shown no other particular disease problems. While not extremely sensitive to Phytophthora root rot, on heavy or wet soils, LEWIS will show symptoms of the disease.LEWIS has been an excellent parent in New Zealand and Pacific Northwest breeding programs and readily transmits large fruit size.LEWIS is introduced as a berry for the fresh market, pick-your-own operations and for processing. Its large, attractive glossy fruit have made it a preferred berry for fresh market sales.LEWIS nuclear stock has tested negative for tomato ringspot, raspberry bushy dwarf, and tobacco streak viruses by ELISA and has indexed negative on grafting to R. occidentalis.

The Tolkomelen word has the sense of 'quieter waters at the head' or 'travel by way of a backwater or slough'. The name was considered particularly appropriate since 'Chilliwack' produces firm fruit that travels well.The 'Chilliwack' cultivar has had great success in the Santiago area of Chile and in the state of Victoria in southeastern Australia. In Chile it fruits in November and December and is air freighted to cities in the Northern Hemisphere. Fresh quality is excellent. Plants show some tolerance to Phytophthora-incited root rots. It has been an importantparent in breeding programmes.

| 24 | PI 553372 | 'Nootka' | Rubus idaeus L. subsp. idaeus | British Columbia, Canada | COR |  | | 1981 | DEVELOPED | 1977 | | | | | Cultivar | Orig. in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, by H.A. Daubeny, Agr. Canada Res. Sta. Carnival x Willamette; cross made in 1964; selected in 1966; tested as BC 64-6-142; introd. in 1978. Fruit: round to conic, firm, medium to dark red; separates readily from receptacle, resistant to pre- and postharvest rot, long harvest season; drupelets numerous and medium; well adapted to machine harvest. Plant: productive; vigorous; canes fairly upright; relatively long laterals; winter hardy in the Pacific Northwest. Susceptible to spur blight; moderately susceptible to cane Botrytis; some resistance to root rot; resistant to the common strain of the North American aphid vector of the raspberry mosaic virus complex.NOOTKA (1978) - raspberry - Refers to Nootka Sound on the West Coast of Vancouver Island. The most likely explanation of the word nootka is that the first Europeans to go there heard the First Nations People say noo-ka-eh, the imperative of the local very meaning "go around".The 'Nootka' cultivar was not successful when it was first released, mainly because it was not that different than 'Willamette' the standard cultivar of the time. However, there is renewed interest in the cultivar because it seems to be resistant to the potentially devastating pollen borne raspberry bushy dwarf virus and, as well, has a particularly high level of soluble solids and is well-suited to machine harvest. It has been an important parent in breeding programmes.
