Title: Occurrence of Viable Eggs in Haploid Peach
Authors: M.R. Pooler and R. Scorza
Abstract:
Haploid peach trees (Prunus persica Batsch,
IX = In = 8) were evaluated for the presence of
unreduced eggs as indicated by the production
of normal fruit with viable seed following open
pollination.
Two of seven haploid genotypes
produced unreduced eggs: 'PAlal-lN' and
'PRRL1-1N' produced normal fruit from 0.44%
and 0.35% of the flowers studied, respectively.
Unreduced pollen was also observed in haploid
trees and occurred in all anthers sampled.
