Characterisation of somatic hybrids between Solanum tuberosum and its frost-tolerant relative Solanum commersonil
1997-11-01
Abstract excerpt
Somatic hybrids between three dihaploid Solanum tuberosum (2n = 2x = 24) genotypes and the frost-tolerant, diploid, relative Solanum commersonii (2n = 2x = 24) were analysed for variation in morphological traits, fertility and frost tolerance. The somatic hybrids were more vigorous than their parents and in many ways resembled a tetraploid S. tuberosum. All of the hybrids flowered profusely, although the male fert...
