Recap of 2017 presentation

  • Breeding new varieties is challenging

– Cultivars are tetraploid and heterozygous

  • Segregate when crossed
  • Each variety is a completely new genetic

combination

Recap of 2017 presentation

  • New breeding system

– Cultivars are diploid hybrids from inbred lines – Can create a new variety that is identical to an existing one, but with additional traits – Propagated by true seed

Advantages of new system

  • 1. Incrementally improve cultivars
