Identification, Elucidation and Deployment of a Cytoplasmic Male Sterility System for Hybrid Potato
Recent advances in diploid F1 hybrid potato breeding rely on the production of inbred lines using the S-locus inhibitor (Sli) gene.As #8 LIGHT BLOND a result of this method, female parent lines are self-fertile and require emasculation before hybrid seed production.The resulting F1 hybrids are self-fertile as well and produce many undesirable berri
