Abstract
A new bright yellow gerbera (Gerbera hybrida Hort.), 'Sunmyo' was bred from a cross between red medium-gerbera 'Beauty' and yellow gerbera 'Tamara' in 2001. Characteristics trials were conducted three times from 2004 to 2006. Bred cultivar 'Sunmyo' showed bright yellow color (YG12B), black center, semi-double type, and middle size flower with stable flower shape. The average yield of 'Sunmyo' increased up to 37% (70.0 stems per year) as compared to control cultivar 'Biro' (51.0 stems per year). The vase life is 7.5 days. The survival rate is 85.0%, and days to first flowering are 95 in the plastic house passing the winter season.
