'Royalty' - A purple-red raspberry

Author
Sanford, John; Ourecky, Donald
Abstract
'Royalty' is a backcross between a hybrid purple
raspberry and a red raspberry. It combines many of the
desirable features of both parents, having the large fruit
size and plant vigor of a purple hybrid, and the high fruit
quality of a red raspberry. 'Royalty' is hardy, has wide adaptation,
and has good yield potential. This new cultivar has
triple insect resistance; having immunity to the raspberry
aphid, Amphorophora agathonica Hottes; resistance to the
raspberry aphid, Aphis rubicola, Oestland; and resistance
to the raspberry fruitworm, Byturus rubi Barber. 'Royalty's'
aphid resistance helps it to escape the aphid-transmitted
mosaic and leaf curl viruses, which should extend the
productive life of the planting.
