Study on the Inheritance of Aborted Anthers in Citrus Using Seed Parents Having Aborted Anthers

摘要: The incidence of aborted anthers in citrus appears to be a heritable characteristic which is probably due gene-cytoplasmic interaction. However, the absence detailed crosses, this can not confirmed. In present paper, inheritance patterns were studied for 418 seedlings derived from 18 cross combinations, using five varieties with as seed parents. Seed number hybrid was also investigated under field conditions.Hybrid appeared all but apparent ratio differed different combinations. When 'Minneola' and 'Robinson' used pollen parents, many viable obtained. when other cultivars parent, approximately half failed develop anthers. among combinations because it depends on choice parental material.In (MS) fertile (MF) fitted 1:1 segregation. obtained MS MF 1:3 than 1:1. From these results, that parents study heterozygous normal individuals recessive gene homozygous condition. results suggest controlled by two major genes.
