ABSTRACT:
Genus and species:
Vitis vinifera.
BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The new grape plant ‘13-29-281’ is of
Vitis vinifera
parentage and resulted from a twenty year breeding program which had as its goal the development of a late-ripening, brightly colored, red, seedless table grape. The female, seed parent (unnamed and unpatented) resulted from a series of crosses involving ‘Emperor’, (unpatented) ‘Thompson Seedless’ (unpatented), ‘Hunisa’ (unpatented), and ‘Nocera’ (unpatented). The male parent of the cross is an unnamed seedless grapevine resulting from a series of crosses involving ‘Red Muscatel’ (unpatented), ‘Emperor’ (unpatented), ‘Nocera’ (unpatented), and ‘Hunisa’ (unpatented). The hybridization resulting in ‘13-29-281’ was made near McFarland, Calif. in 1992. The seedling was selected from a population of 11 seedlings of like parentage in 1995. The new selection was then propagated by cuttings and grafting to ‘Freedom’ (unpatented) rootstock. Those resulting plants proved stable and typical of the original seedling grapevine.
COMPARISON WITH PARENTAL CULTIVARS
The new grapevine variety, cv. ‘13-29-281’ somewhat resembles ‘3-14-71’ grapevine which it shares a similar pedigree. It differs from the ‘3-14-71’ grapevine (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 8,297) by having a larger berry with crisper berry flesh and from the ‘Ralli Seedless’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,865) by being much later in ripening with a more elongate berry. ‘13-29-281’ differs from its female parent by bearing stenospermic (seedless) fruit. ‘13-29-281’ differs from its male parent by having red skinned berries as opposed to the green skinned berries of the male parent.
