Synthesizing current knowledge on the ecology, phenology, and cultivation of Vaccinium membranaceum
More than 100 edible native berries grow across Canada's vast territory and are used by over 600 Indigenous Peoples of Canada as a main component of their diet. This research provides critical insights into the ecology, phenology, and cultivation of black huckleberry (Vaccinium membranaceum), a species of significant ecological and cultural importance ...

Abstract Premise The proper classification of taxa is often debated, particularly when organisms lack qualitative diagnostic traits. Highbush cranberry taxa (Viburnum spp.) have been the subject of such disputes since their characterization by 18th‐ and 19th‐century botanists. Despite their allopatric distributions—V.

`CAMELLIA': A NEW MIDSEASON SOUTHERN HIGHBUSH BLUEBERRY CULTIVAR [PDF]
A new southern highbush blueberry cultivar named `Camellia' was released in 2005 by The University of Georgia and the USDA–ARS. `Camellia' is a hybrid containing mostly Vaccinium corymbosum and a small amount of V. darrowi. The new cultivar was selected in 1996 at the Coastal Plain Experiment Station in Tifton, Ga.

`Duplin' and `Sampson' Southern Highbush Blueberries
`Duplin' (NC 1852) and `Sampson' (NC 2675) are southern highbush blueberry genotypes that bloom with `Croatan', the predominant highbush cultivar in eastern North Carolina, and ripen with or slightly later than `Croatan'. `Duplin' appears to have flower bud hardiness similar to standard highbush cultivars when grown at intermediate elevations in the ...

Plants, Pollinators and Pheromones: Promises and Lies of Semiochemicals
ABSTRACT Pollination is traditionally regarded as a quintessential mutualism, yet many plants employ deceptive strategies to achieve reproductive success. Among the most intriguing is sexual deception, wherein flowers mimic the sex pheromones and visual signals of female insects to attract male pollinators—without providing any reward.

Crop Water Requirements of Mature Southern Highbush Blueberries [PDF]
Measures of crop water use for mature blueberry plantings could offer improved irrigation management by growers, reducing irrigation diversions. The objective of this research was to provide crop coefficients for mature southern highbush blueberry plants. Measures of crop water requirements were made using a water balance enabled by suction lysimeters.
