Abstract

A new bright yellow gerbera (Gerbera hybrida Hort.), 'Sunmyo' was bred from a cross between red medium-gerbera 'Beauty' and yellow gerbera 'Tamara' in 2001. Characteristics trials were conducted three times from 2004 to 2006. Bred cultivar 'Sunmyo' showed bright yellow color (YG12B), black center, semi-double type, and middle size flower with stable flower shape. The average yield of 'Sunmyo' increased up to 37% (70.0 stems per year) as compared to control cultivar 'Biro' (51.0 stems per year). The vase life is 7.5 days. The survival rate is 85.0%, and days to first flowering are 95 in the plastic house passing the winter season.

절화용 거베라 'Sunmyo'는 적색의 'Beauty'를 모본, 황색의 중형인 'Tamara'를 부본으로 하여 2001년에 교배하여 선발한 계통으로부터 육성하였다. 2007년부터 3년간 특성검정을 실시하였는데, 'Sunmyo'는 화색이 밝고 선명한 황색의 절화용으로 화형이 안정된 반겹꽃의 중륜화 품종이다. 절화 수량은 본당 70.0본/년으로 대비품종인 '비로'(51.0본/년)에 비해 37.0% 증수 되었으며 절화 수명은 7.5일로 나타났다. 월동 후 생존율은 85.0%이었으며 개화 소요일수는 95일이었다.
