Abstract
Abstract The effects of pollen source on fruit set, berry size, seed characteristics, and potential pollen fertility were evaluated for low-chilling highbush type blueberries (Vaccinium spp.) pollinated in the greenhouse. Self-pollination of each clone, except for US79 which has low pollen viability, resulted in fruit set equal to or better than any type of cross. Berry weight and number of viable seeds per berry were not significantly higher for fruit produced from half-sib crosses than selling. Outcrosses generally produced the greatest berry weight and seed number.
