Journal ArticleDOI
Selection from Solanum tuberosum group phureja of genotypes combining high-frequency haploid induction with homozygosity for embryo-spot
J. G. Th. Hermsen,J. Verdenius +1 more
TL;DR: In the progenies from crosses between recessive cultivars (bbbbpppp) and heterozygous pollinators (BdbPP) the ratio of spotted: spotless hybrid seeds appeared to deviate greatly from 1:1.
Journal ArticleDOI
Double-bridge hybrids of Solanum bulbocastanum and cultivars of Solanum tuberosum
J. G. Th. Hermsen,M. S. Ramanna +1 more
TL;DR: The quadruple hybrids (‘double-bridge’ hybrids) appear good starting material for breeding programmes aimed at introducing genes from S. bulbocastanum into S. tuberosum cultivars.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hybrid necrosis as a problem for the wheat breeder
TL;DR: Some practical advice is given to the breeders about the handling of necrotic crosses and some ways to preclude hybrid necrosis are indicated, though the wheat breeder is advised against a systematic avoiding of necrosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sources and distribution of the complementary genes for hybrid necrosis in wheat
TL;DR: By tracing the descendence of these carriers several sources of the necrosis genes could be detected and it was demonstrated that notably the frequent use of certain carrier-varieties as parents in crosses has promoted the distribution of the mortality genes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Successful hybridization of non-tuberous Solanum etuberosum Lind. and tuberbearing S. pinnatisectum Dun.
J. G. Th. Hermsen,L. M. Taylor +1 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that this hybrid together with those between the tomato, Lycopersicon esculentum, and S, pennellii and S. lycopersicoides constitute piers of a bridge between tomato and potato species which in the future might enable gene transfer between these two crops via their wild relatives.
