Abstract
A new pineapple (Ananas comosus) variety of the Bromeliaceae family was developed from a cross between the parental hybrid ‘Dole-17’ and the commercial variety ‘Dole-11’ and has been designated ‘Dole-34’. This new variety differs from its progenitors in bearing a large oval to round shaped fruit with a crown that is lengthened cylindrical with a bunchy top, and with an intense reddish-orange color of the shell. The plant is compact and characterized by long spineless leaves with piping, that are green in color with red mottling. When unripe, fruit shell is dark green turning to uniform reddish-orange color when ripe, and the flesh is sweet and develops a yellow color at maturity. It also shows tolerance to natural flowering differentiation (NDF).
