ISHS Acta Horticulturae 63: I International Symposium on Floriculture Plant Breeding and Genetics

BREEDING STREPTOCARPUS FOR POT PLANT USE

Author:   P. Allen Hammer
Abstract:
Our aim is to seed-propagate Streptocarpus for use as a pot plant. Preliminary inbreeding studies have shown high variability in selfs of Constant Nymph. A significant loss of vigor occurred in the third generation of selfing. The presence of functional male sterility suggests the possibility of F1 hybrid seed production.
