Publication number: 20030056256Abstract: A new and distinct variety 9-9-12 of the vinifera grape, comparable to Thompson Seedless as a dessert fruit and of similar quality for fresh consumption. The improvements in this invention appear to be very large berry size and more attractive berries after gibberellin treatment, and as well as extension of the harvesting season of fresh seedless grapes.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2001Publication date: March 20, 2003Inventor: Harold P. Olmo

Publication number: 20030014791Abstract: This new variety ‘12-76-71’, a red, seedless, table grape, is unique because of its combination of strong muscat flavor, seedlessness and high productivity. It closely resembles ‘Flame Seedless’ table grape which is one of its progenitors, but is different because of its later ripening and muscat flavor. The stenospermic fruit has muscat flavor, very firm flesh and is very sweet at maturity. Additionally, the fruit retains its form and quality over a long period of preservation in handling, storage and marketing.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 27, 2001Publication date: January 16, 2003Inventor: Harold P. Olmo

Patent number: PP4784Abstract: A new and distinct variety of grapevine having the ability to produce early market seedless table grapes and very large raisins. The variety is further characterized by its unusually large berries with only occasional traces of seed development, a cluster that is naturally self-thinning at blossom time and its adaptability to short pruning methods.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 1980Date of Patent: November 3, 1981Inventors: Harold P. Olmo, Albert T. Koyama
-
Patent number: PP4787Abstract: A new and distinct variety of grapevine useful for production of table grapes superior to the Emperor variety in its higher and more consistent yields with short pruning systems, its earlier production of full color berries which are larger in size than Emperor and its ability to cold store for a long period in excellent condition.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 1980Date of Patent: November 10, 1981Inventors: Harold P. Olmo, Albert T. Koyama
-
Patent number: PP4788Abstract: A new and distinct variety of grapevine having early maturing grapes similar to the Perlette variety but which is superior to Perlette by its lack of need for hand thinning of berries and its greater uniformity of and larger berry size than Perlette. The variety is further characterized by its suitability for drying into raisins.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 1980Date of Patent: November 10, 1981Inventors: Harold P. Olmo, Albert T. Koyama
-
Patent number: PP4856Abstract: A new and distinct variety of grapevine of the vinifera species having the general characteristics of the commercial Emperor but differing in the following important attributes: Earlier coloring and maturity of the fruit, a much brighter red color, essentially seedless with only soft greenish rudiments present, and similar to Emperor in shipping and cold storage qualities.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 1980Date of Patent: June 8, 1982Assignee: The Regents of the University of CaliforniaInventor: Harold P. Olmo
-
Patent number: PP4866Abstract: A new and distinct variety of grapevine of the vinifera species characterized by its early ripening, greater production of sugar and less total acidity than French Colombard. The new variety is useful for production of white table wine but more particularly for distillation and production of high-quality brandy.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 1980Date of Patent: July 13, 1982Assignee: The Regents of the University of CaliforniaInventors: Harold P. Olmo, James F. Guymon, deceased
-
Patent number: PP5013Abstract: A new and distinct variety of grapevine of the vinifera species, named `Symphony`, having the ability to produce either a light and dry white table wine characterized by a delicate Muscat-type aroma and flavor when harvested before full maturity or a natural sweet wine when picked more mature. The wine is very slow to oxidize and retains its typical aroma and flavor even after long periods of aging. The usual bitterness associated with Muscat-type varieties made as dry wines is not evident in the new variety.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 1981Date of Patent: March 29, 1983Assignee: The Regents of the University of CaliforniaInventor: Harold P. Olmo
-
Patent number: PP5056Abstract: A new and distinct variety of grapevine capable of producing late harvest red table grapes similar to the Emperor variety but which is superior to Emperor in its heavier and more regular cropping and in its greater uniformity of color, largeness of berry size and better palatability.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 1980Date of Patent: May 31, 1983Assignee: Regents U.C.Inventors: Harold P. Olmo, Albert T. Koyama
-
Patent number: PP6166Abstract: A new and distinct variety of grapevine rootstock is provided. It is characterized by its immunity to feeding by the nematode vector of grapevine fanleaf virus and to feeding by phylloxera. When grafted with scion cultivars, such as `Cabernet Sauvignon,` `Chenin blanc,` and `Carignane,` the variety may be planted in soil contaminated with viruliferous nematodes and/or phylloxera and will produce healthy fruit and excellent yields.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 1986Date of Patent: May 3, 1988Assignee: The Regents of the University of CaliforniaInventors: Lloyd A. Lider, Harold P. Olmo, Austin C. Goheen

Patent number: PP19981Abstract: Rootstock ‘8909-05’ is a cross of Vitis rupestris ‘A. de Serres’×Muscadinia rotundifolia ‘Cowart’. This invention relates to a new and distinct variety of grape rootstock with resistance to a broad array of soil-borne nematodes including root-knot, dagger, citrus, lesion, and ring nematodes. The rootstock also resists grape phylloxera. Rootstock ‘8909-05’ is one of the rare sources of resistance to ring nematode. The rootstock has extremely strong and broad nematode resistance.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2008Date of Patent: May 12, 2009Assignee: The Regents of the University of CaliforniaInventors: Andrew Walker, Kim Everist, Harold P. Olmo
