Abstract SUMMARY AflD OONCI3SION The present work was carried out to study iitheritonoe of growth habit, nuraber of leaflets per lecz er of locules per fruit,leaf length,leaflet 1entb and 1readtb, numb or of flowers per cluster, fruit ,equatialand polar diaraeters of fruit and fruit shape. For this .r)O5O crosses were made aiaong five tomato varieties mci— _.L- Red Currant (ILycopersicon pinpinellifoliuxa). Results of this stuy can be summarized in the fOUowing:— The indeterninato growth habit of Pritchard,Barliana,or Red Currant is governed by one gene doii4’it to that controlling the determinate growth. habit of both Geneme and. Margiobe. 2.. Number of leaflets per leaf itthnri’bed on a simple Men&. e2ian basis. In crosses between Gexienie (5 leaflets) and each of Pritchard, Earliana or Red. Currant (7 leaflets), the larger number of leaflets was dominant over the aria— her number. The segregated in a ratio of 3 plants with seven leaflebs per leaf to plant With 5 leaflets per leaf. 3— The smaller number of locules per fruit in both Red Currant and Genone is c.orninant over the larger number of locules in Pritchor..., A!arlobe or Earhiana varieties and is controlled by one major gene. |
