Title: Heritability of Flowering and Harvest Dates in Vaccinium corymbosum L.
Authors: J.F. Hancock, M. Sakin and P.A. Callow
Abstract:
Six highbush cultivars with varying flowering
dates and fruit development periods were
crossed in a diallel fashion to measure the
heritability of flowering and harvest dates.
Sig
nificant levels of general combining ability were
observed for both of the traits, along with high
levels of heritability. 'Bluejay' and 'Spartan'
show promise as parents which can both delay
flowering and hasten harvest.
