Origin & Breeding History: 'DrisStrawFifty' originated from a cross conducted in June 2009 in Huelva, Spain. The cross was made between the proprietary female parent variety 'DrisStrawSixteen' and the proprietary male parent designated 'RES 070-001'. A single plant was selected for asexual propagation by tissue culture and vegetative cuttings in March 2010 in Huelva, Spain based on maturity time, fruit size, fruit colour and plant growth habit. Further propagation and testing was conducted in Huelva from 2011 to 2015.
Tests & Trials: The detailed description of 'DrisStrawFifty' is based on the UPOV report of Technical Examination, application number 2016/3286, 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.
