Abstract
'Saanich' is a new floricane-fruiting red raspberry (Rubus idaeus) cultivar from the breeding programme at the Pacific Agri-Food Research Centre (PARC) of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC). This cultivar was selected from a cross of two PARC selections BC-82-5-161 and BC 80-28-50. It produces a very high yield of medium-sized, firm, sweet fruit suited to machine harvesting and that can be individually quick frozen. It is well adapted for processing and fresh markets. It is resistant to the common strain of the North American raspberry aphid, Amphorophora agathonica, a vector of Raspberry mosaic virus complex.
