| Abstract:
Closed pollinations between caprifigs containing percentages of “Calimyrna” fig genome and a range of “Calimyrna” female figs were done in 1991; 17 advanced selections were placed in three test plots in 1995 for evaluation in 1998. Additional crosses were done in 1992 using the female cultivar Tena as the female parent and the persistent caprifig D3–11 with 50% “Calimyrna” genome as the pollen parent; 21 advanced selections from these crosses were planted in three test plots in 1997 for evaluation in 1998. | |
