Narrative
In 1997, 'Metolius', tested asORUS 1452-I,was selected from a 1994 cross between 'Douglass' and 'Kotata' (Fig. 1). 'Douglass' (IJSPP8423; Douglass, 1993) is an early thornlesstrailing blackberry with soft fruit but excellentflavor. While 'Douglass' was developed by aprivate breeder, several of its progenitors wereoriginally from the USDA?ARS program in Corvallis. Although, 'Douglass' parents were published in the patent. the full pedigree has notbeen published previously. 'Kotata' is an earlyto midseason commercial trailing cultivar thatis very thorny, has good yield and has excel-lent fruit quality. While 'Kotata' fruit must behandled gently, it can be shipped in the wholesale fresh market. The ploidy level of 'Metolius' is unknown and is difficult to estimate. The mater-nal parent 'Kotata' is heptaploid (2n = 7x =49)and paternal 'Douglass' is octoploid (2n = 8x =56)(Meng and Finn, 2002: Thompson. 1995).'Metolius' is being released primarily due to itssuperior performance as a very early ripeningfresh market berry. The cultivar is named after a famous Oregon trout fishing river that emerges from a large spring at the base of Black Butte, in the central Oregon Cascade Mountains.
