Abstract

A new pineapple ( Ananas comosus ) variety of the Bromeliaceae family was developed from a cross between the parental genotype ‘Dole-12’ and the commercial variety ‘Dole-11’ and has been designated ‘HND-32’. This new variety combines from its progenitors' different characteristics producing a unique hybrid showing irregular presence of spines in leaf margins, green leaves with red mottling colors, a reddish inflorescence at bottom stage, a cylindrical-slight taper shaped fruit with a long-conical crown, a distinctive ochre shell color, and an ivory white pulp with balanced sweet/acid-pleasant flavor, and tolerance to natural flowering differentiation.
