| Abstract: | Summary Seedlings from 77 accessions including inbreds, F1 hybrids and seven F2 populations were exposed to approximately 60% shading for 35 days following transplanting into the field.Most of the lines did not set fruit under the shading due to heavy abscission of flowers. A few exceptional lines, hybrids and F2 segregants showed resistance to abscission and set normal fruits under the shading regime. This procedure is suggested for screening against stress-induced flower abscission. An association is suggested between resistance to shading and to high temperatures and its genetic control.Contribution from the Agricultural Research Organization, The Volcani Center, Bet Dagan, Israel No. 1209-E, 1993 series. |
