Determining the Importance of Combining Ability for Late Blight Resistance in Early Generations of Potato Breeding When Susceptible Clones are Discarded
2008-12-01
Abstract excerpt
At times it may be desirable to determine the importance, rather than the actual values, of general (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) in parental materials. In screening large populations for disease resistance over years it may be difficult or impossible to accurately estimate these effects. Once a clone has been found to be susceptible it is usually discarded or lost to the disease, but multiple evaluat...
