TL;DR: In this paper, the authors found that in 2n CG×4n CG and its reciprocals, the egg was found to be fertilized within 24 hours but in 2 n D 154× 4n D 154 and its reciprocal crosses no pod sets at all.
Abstract: 1 Pods set in both types of crosses (2n CG×4n CG and 4n CG×2n CG) Five pods are found to reach up to maturity in case of 2n CG×4n CG Pods set in case of the second cross shed within a week 2 In 2n D 154×4n D 154 and its reciprocal crosses no pod sets at all 3 The cross pods (2n CG×4n CG) are shorter than those of both parents 4 In 2n CG×4n CG and its reciprocals, the egg is found to be fertilized within 24 hours But in 2n D 154×4n D 154 and its reciprocals, pollen tube does not reach the ovule in one day 5 Complete fusion of the egg and the sperm in case of 2n CG×4n CG and its reciprocals is not observed even in two days But in case of 2n D 154×4n D154 and its reciprocals no fertilization is observed 6 Degeneration of ovules starts on the 3rd day in case of 4n CG×2n CG In 2n D 154×4n D 154 degeneration starts on the 2nd day and in its reciprocal degenerating ovules are marked on the 3rd day

TL;DR: UPGMA (Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Mean) analysis suggests a close relationship as well as distinctiveness between parents and the raised hybrid.
Abstract: A hybrid line (Corchorus capsularis L. – pollen parent × C. trilocularis L. – stigma parent) of jute (family: Tiliaceae) has been assessed for its stability (using cytomorphological parameters) and viability (using different stain tests including DAPI - 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole) in advance generations (F4 to F6). The trueness of the hybrid is studied following the use of RAPD (random amplification of polymorphic DNA) markers. Results indicate that the hybrid line is stable, viable and true. UPGMA (Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Mean) analysis suggests a close relationship as well as distinctiveness between parents and the raised hybrid. Upon considering different genetic efficiency parameters, taken together, it seems that OPA 02, OPA 03, OPB 01, OPB 02, OPB 06, OPC 01 and OPC 06 are effective and efficient RAPD markers for molecular screening of jute germplasms including hybrid(s). OPB 06 is found to be female specific RAPD marker.

TL;DR: The genus Corchorus comprises species which are systematically widely related and a karyotypic study of these species will throw light on this aspect and breeders will then get a tool for handling this subject.
Abstract: In Corchorus sidoidesF. Muell ♀ x C. siliquosus L. ♂, the pod set was 19.05 per cent. and the percentage of pod harvested (out of set pods) was 100 per cent.. All seeds of the cross pods were non-viable.
