Some Notable Characteristics of Seedless Muscadine Grapes Observed in FAMU's Grape Breeding

摘要

Two bronze and four red/black seedless Muscadine grape vines were obtained from 16.244 Muscadine hybrids, in the grape b programs at FAMU. Their seed traces were unnoticeable in ripe fruits, and could be the parthenocarpy seedless. The fruits were andranged from 1.7 to 3.4 g. Sugar contents (SSC %) and total titratable acid contents (TA %) were similar to Fry Seedless. No rot was observed with red/black color fruit hybrids, but there was some with bronze color fruit hybrids. The other notable horticcharacteristics observed in these hybrids were pistillate flowers with erect stamens; red/black fruits were produced by green sh vines; presence of uniform fruit ripening, and erratic yields.
