Temperature-dependent sugar accumulation in interspecific Capsicum F1 plants showing hybrid weakness.

Abstract excerpt

In plants, F1 hybrids showing hybrid weakness exhibit weaker growth than their parents. The phenotypes of hybrid weakness are often suppressed at certain temperatures. However, it is unclear whether hybrid weakness in Capsicum annuum × C. chinense is temperature-dependent or not. Our study showed that Capsicum hybrid weakness was suppressed at 30 and 35 °C and was induced at 15, 20, and 25 °C. Moreover, we...
