Controlled pollination: The new variety ‘DrisStrawFourteen’ originated as a result of<br />
a controlled cross pollination between the proprietary breeding lines ‘159K312’<br />
(female parent) and ‘128K296’ (pollen parent) in an ongoing breeding program. The<br />
resulting seedling was asexually propagated in Shasta County, California USA and<br />
was subsequently propagated from stolons from 2005 to 2009 where the<br />
characteristics remained true to type through successive generations. Breeders: Philip<br />
J Stewart, Martin P Madesko, JoAnne F Cross and Bruce D Mowrey all employees of<br />
Driscoll Strawberry Associates Inc. Watsonville, California USA.<br />
