Abstract: ‘BB14-321NA-1’ is the first known genotype selected in a low-chill temperate environment of Central Chile and tested also in the tropical environment of Peru. ‘BB14-321NA-1’ is a high-yielding early season variety that can break buds and produce fruit with very low chill or no-chill since it does not develop endo-dormancy. The fruit of ‘BB14-321NA-1’ is very large with medium blue color, high bloom and excellent fruit appearance. Fruit is firm and has juicy texture. The eating quality of ‘BB14-321NA-1’ is very good, and ‘BB14-321NA-1’ appears to have the option of jumbo early fruit for early spring production in many places of the world. It can be cultivated in soil and soilless production systems.

Abstract: ‘BB14-232PT-2’, is the second known genotype selected in a tropical environment of Peru. ‘BB14-232PT-2’ does not require chill-hours for either budbreak or fruit production, possibly because ‘BB14-232PT-2’ does not develop endo-dormancy. The fruit of ‘BB14-232PT-2’ is a medium to large size berry, with medium dark blue color, excellent fruit firmness and crunchy texture. The eating quality of ‘BB14-232PT-2’ is excellent and superior to many of the varieties currently grown in Peru, with a sugar/acidity balance of 16 to 20. Time of fruit production in ‘BB14-232PT-2’ can be regulated by the pruning date and environment conditions.

Abstract: ‘BB17-321PT-1’ is the third known blueberry genotype to be selected in a tropical environment of Peru. ‘BB17-321PT-1’ does not require chill-hours for either budbreak or fruit production. The fruit of ‘BB17-321PT-1’ is a medium to large size berry, with medium blue color and extremely crunchy and firm texture. Current season shoots lose apical dominance, easily promoting several laterals without the need of any summer pruning. The eating quality of ‘BB17-321PT-1’ is excellent and the crunchiness is superior to all varieties currently grown in Peru known to Applicant, with a sugar/acidity balance of 20 to 30. Time of fruit production in ‘BB17-321PT-1’ can be regulated by the pruning date and environment conditions.

Abstract: ‘BB14-112PT-2’, is another genotype selected in a tropical environment of Peru. ‘BB14-112PT-2’ does not require chill-hours for either budbreak or fruit production. The fruit of ‘BB14-112PT-2’ is large to extra-large size berry, with medium blue color, good fruit firmness texture. Leaves are large and shoots has short internodes. The eating quality of ‘BB14-112PT-2’ is very good and superior to many of the varieties currently grown in Peru, with a sugar/acid balance of 12 to 15. Time of fruit production in ‘BB14-112PT-2’ can be regulated by the pruning date and environment conditions.
