Efficiency of Embryo Rescue From Crosses Between Tomato (Lycopersicon Esculentum) and Two L. Peruvianum Accessions With Heat-Stable Nematode Resistance
Abstract:Ten tomato cultigens were crossed with L. peruvianum accessions PI 126443 and PI 129152. Fruit (536 total) were harvested between 15 and 65 days after anthesis (DAA). Culturable embryos were obtained from 13% of the fruit. There were 140 embryos plated, from which 36 plants were obtained (7% of fruit, 26% of embryos plated). 'Campbell 28', Fla. 7217, and Fla. 7182 were the most efficient tomato lines for producing F1… Show more
