Micropropagation of Lowbush Blueberry from Mature Field-grown Plants [PDF]
HortScience, 1990 Bud cultures from nonjuvenile field clones of lowbush blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium Ait.) were established on Z-2 medium with 59 μm 2iP. Reversion to juvenile characteristics with small and rounder leaves occurred only on two explants after 19 weeks in culture. These shoots grew vigorously and could be easily subcultured.

Irrigation Scheduling for Young Highbush Blueberry Plants in Arkansas
HortScience, 1987 Abstract A moisture accounting method was used to schedule trickle irrigation on 3-year-old highbush blueberry plants (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) ‘Bluecrop’ planted in 140-liter barrels. Crop coefficients (K) of 1.00, 0.75, and 0.50 were used to relate Class “A” Weather Bureau pan evaporation to consumptive water use during three growth stages.
