Title: ´Ida` and ´Linnea` - Novel Lingonberry Cultivars with Commercial Potential
Authors: B. A. Gustavsson and V. Trajkovski
Abstract:
'Ida' and 'Linnea' lingonberry have been named and released by the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences for use in commercial production.
Seeds were originally obtained from the province of
Smaland, Sweden, and gave rise to the new cultivars through open pollination. 'Ida' is characterized by
very large berries and repeated flowering and early ripening berries. 'Linnea' is vigorous, high yielding
and produces berries with good storage capacity.
Both cultivars are very winter hardy and relatively resistant to fungal diseases.
