In recent years, there has been renewed interest in black raspberry (Rubus occidentalis L.) breeding. This has been spurred by an increase in black raspberry consumption due to studies that have shown them to be particularly high in anthocyanin content indicating high levels of antioxidants. Present cultivars are ill adapted...
This publication briefly describes raspberry
cultivars. The two main types of raspberries are
red and black. Yellow-fruited raspberries result
from a mutation of red raspberries that prevents
the formation of red color; they are grown exactly
the same as red raspberries. Purple raspberries are
a hybrid between black and red...
The effects of ¹⁵N-labeled fertilizer applied to mature summer-bearing red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) plants were measured over two years. Four nitrogen (N) treatments were applied singularly at 0, 40, or 80 kg·ha⁻¹ of N in early spring (budbreak), or split with 40 kg·ha⁻¹ of N (unlabeled) applied at budbreak...
Raspberries are among the most delicious and delicate of berry crops. This publication briefly describes growing requirements and production systems for several types of raspberry.
Raspberries have been popular since the time of the ancient Greeks. Red raspberries are cultivated throughout the world, particularly in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States and Canada. The raspberry bushy dwarf virus (RBDV) causes significant reduction in yield and crumbly fruit in raspberries, blackberries and raspberry-blackberry hybrids....
Strawberries {Fragaria ananasa) and raspberries {Rubus ideaus) are good sources ofmany important nutrients, and have great potential to improve human health. However, they are highly perishable and have a very short shelf-life mainly due to the attack of fungi and high respiration rate. Edible coatings, especially chitosan-based coatings have been...
