Pistil Treatments for Improved Fertility in Hybridization of Eucalyptus gunnii (Hook)

  • Conference paper
Sexual Reproduction in Higher Plants

Abstract

Pistil treatments, especially on the stigma, have become more and more used since a few years in breeding programs. The main purpose is to avoid some barriers at different levels of incompatibility: this will occur, for example, in a mating system with high level of autogamy or in inter generic crosses with large genetic distances between the two parents.
