Other claims from this paper (13)
- Association dw1 in heterozygous and homozygous states increased earliness.
- Association Homozygous TMF increased earliness.
- Association Dw1 reduced plant size and vegetative regrowth.
- Association TMF decreased overall maturity less than dw1 and produced a hybrid phenotypically similar to the original.
- Observation TMF hybrids were phenotypically similar to original hybrids across backgrounds.
- Association SFT caused late flowering with single flower inflorescences.
- Association SFT increased vegetative growth.
- Association dw1-SFT restored maturity toward the original hybrids.
- Association TMF TMF-SFT restored maturity toward the original hybrids.
- Association dw1-SFT combinations increased yield in some backgrounds.
- Association TMF TMF-SFT combinations increased yield in some backgrounds.
- Observation dw1 dw1 in some backgrounds maintained original hybrid yield while maturing early.
- Recommendation The authors call for further evaluation of phenotype, yield and fruit characteristics against industry standards.
