Origin of Vaccinium Cultivars

Vaccinium L.

The origin of a Vaccinium cultivar is a descriptive characteristic that records the parent forms, breeding methods, and geography of a cultivar's development in order to evaluate its biological features.

In the reference 16 varieties crop Bilberry, where this is mentioned in the description.

For members of the genus Vaccinium, the origin of a cultivar documents the plant's genetic history, including parental lines and the method of seedling derivation. This data is necessary for the official registration of the cultivar and its inclusion in registers of breeding achievements.

This parameter serves as an indicator of the crop's adaptive potential. The genetic involvement of specific species, such as Vaccinium corymbosum or Vaccinium angustifolium, allows for the prediction of the cultivar's chilling requirement, growing degree-days, and resistance to pathogens under conditions of introduction.
