National Journal of Plant Improvement, 2007

Abstract

ABSTRACT The P1 P2 F1 and F2 generations of H 7 variety (P1) as female parent with four male parents (P2) viz., PLR 1, GBL 1, Green round and GCL 99-1 were Studies for six districts morphological characters viz., growth habit, fruit bearing habit, fruit shape, fruit colour, seedling colour and spiny leaf. The singe dominant gene was responsible for inheritance of spiny leaf, and possibly two complimentary genes for growth habit and three complimentary genes for fruit bearing habit were indicated in the present study. The ratio of 162: 94, 45: 19 and 27: 37 for fruit shape; 3: 1, 57: 7 and 54: 10 for fruit colour and 9 : 7, 54 : 10 and 162 : 94 for seedling colour indicated complex nature of inheritance for these characters and the differences in segregation pattern might be due to the presence of variety number of genes among the parental lines used in the study.
