- Mechanism Fruit firmness was described as polygenic and dependent on pericarp, epidermis and flesh firmness.
- Observation Genotypes with rin produced high fruit firmness, especially flesh firmness.
- Mechanism Expression of these traits disrupted maturation synchrony, preventing overripening and softening.
- Observation Parent and progeny mean fruit firmness differed significantly.
- Mechanism Additive genes were the main influence on fruit firmness across combinations.
- Mechanism Stable duplicate epistasis reduced adverse dominant gene effects from soft-fruited parents.
