http://capitalhort.cas.psu.edu/ResearchThings/BlackberryTalk.pdf

is a 2006 report from Penn State.
They grew-out 13 different cultivars of blackberry. Thorny, Smooth,
Primocane.
And the winner is.... Cacanska. Produced 3x as much fruit as some other
better-known ones.

Thornless: . Apache
. Cacanska . Doyle's Thornless . Navaho . Ouachita(2) . TripleCrown
Primocane Bearing: . PrimeJan(2) . PrimeJim(2)
(both are thorny)

I only count 8 varieties....I guess they counted some varieties twice to get
thirteen.
