Title: Small Fruit Breeding for the Southern United States: Strawberries
Author: G.J. Galletta
Abstract:
This review briefly summarizes the development of the strawberry {Fragaria × ananassa Duchesne) industries of the southern United States during the twentieth century, their problems, major cultivars, and breeding programs.
The breeding objectives, contributions, and personnel of the several state and federal improvement programs are presented in more detail.
Some ideas are offered about the future of the southern
strawberry industries, and how the objectives of the fewer remaining breeding programs may have to be altered to accommodate the new and continuing problems of the growing and consuming public.
