Abstract:
Primocane fruiting red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) cultivars 'Heritage' and 'Amity' were compared for two seasons, 1985 and 1986, in terms of fruit yield. In 1986 they were also compared for suceptibility to solar injury of fruit (failure of some drupelets to develop red color). 'Heritage,' currently the only commercial cultivar, out-yielded 'Amity,' which proved poorly adapted to Colorado conditions. 'Amity' snowed significantly less solar injury of fruit, suggesting that red raspberry cultivars do differ in susceptibility.
