`Star' Southern Highbush Blueberry [PDF]
Southern highbush blueberry cultivars are hybrids bred from a gene pool developed by crossing northern highbush cultivars (largely V. corymbosum L.) with one or more low-chill blueberry species native to the southeastern United States. Vaccinium darrowi Camp has been the most widely used source of climatic adaptation to warm areas. Vaccinium darrowi is

‘Gupton’ Southern Highbush Blueberry [PDF]
Southern highbush blueberries (Vaccinium sp.) are hybrids derived from crosses between the (northern) highbush blueberry (V. corymbosum) and germplasm developed from Vaccinium spp. that is both native and adapted to the southeastern United States. Southern highbush blueberries have an advantage over rabbiteye blueberries, the predominant type grown in ...

‘Suziblue’ Southern Highbush Blueberry [PDF]
Southern highbush blueberries (Vaccinium sp.) continue to increase in importance in Georgia and across the southern United States. Growers are particularly interested in their early ripening to enter the market just after fruit from the southern hemisphere decreases in market volume.

PLANT PARASITIC NEMATODES ASSOCIATED WITH RABBITEYE, SOUTHERN HIGHBUSH AND HIGHBUSH BLUEBERRIES [PDF]
Two replicated blueberry plantings, one containing one highbush, (Vaccinium corymbosum) two southern highbush and two rabbiteye (V.ashei) cultivars, and another containing one highbush and three rabbiteye cultivars were sampled in October, 1991 and plant parasitic nematodes extracted and counted.
