May 2015 – ‘DR4879CE’ is a summer cucumber hybrid currently in De Ruiter trials. Trials in 2014 in both Ontario and British Columbia showed a competitive level of production with improved fruit quality…
The anticipated claims for intermediate resistance to Cucumber green mottle mosaic virus and high resistance to Powdery mildew make the variety suitable for summer crops. De Ruiter is very excited to commercialize this new variety that has good production, excellent quality and a good disease package.
