‘Daytona’ Grape

Abstract

‘Daytona’, a pink bunch grape (Vitis X sp.) recommended for fresh fruit consumption, has been released by the University of Florida Agricultural Experiment Station. ‘Daytona’ is resistant to Pierce’s disease (PD), has vini-fera-like fresh fruit character, and has larger bunch and berry size than other PD-resistant cultivars. ‘Daytona’ is suited to homeowner use in areas where PD is a limiting factor to grape growing.
