Abstract:The development of stone fruit varieties that meet modern production requirements is a labor-intensive process involving low yields of progeny obtained through controlled intraspecific and interspecific hybridization, which can take up to 25 years. The non-viability of hybrid seeds is caused by the abortion of the embryo that does not have time to complete its morphophysiological development and endosperm abortion in interspecific hybrids. It is possible to preserve hybrids having a unique combination of trait… Show more
