Origin & Breeding History: DrisStrawFiftyFive' originated from a cross conducted on February 12, 2010 in East Malling, Kent, United Kingdom. The cross was made between the proprietary female parent designated 'KGEM0102' and the proprietary male parent designated 'RUK219-001'. A single plant was selected in May of 2011. Asexual propagation by stolons began in July of 2011 in East Malling, Kent, United Kingdom based on fruit shape, size and flavour. Further propagation and testing was conducted in East Malling from 2011 to 2016.
Tests & Trials: The detailed description of 'DrisStrawFiftyFive' is based on the UPOV report of Technical Examination, application number 2017/1843, purchased from the Community Plant Variety Office, in Angers, France. The trials were conducted at the Escaroupim Studies Center - Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Rural Development, in Portugal from 2019 to 2020.
