AA - AABB Crosses

Updated: 15 May, 2002   Returning? Jump to Photos

In the present system, any cultivar that has more sets of aril chromosomes than non-aril is classified as an OB+, RB+, or OGB+.  

This page presents first-generation seedlings, from crosses between a member of the fertile family of halfbreds and a diploid aril. These crosses produce only OB+, RB+ and OGB+ offspring, depending on whether they have onco heritage, regelia heritage or both,  and are thus relatively easy to evaluate.

The first section dates to the period in which I numbered crosses when I lined out the seedlings and seedlings when they were selected to save for further evaluation and possible introduction.  The numbers are therefore no indication of the number of crosses made or the number of seedlings produced by each cross.
