BREEDING ESTIMATION OF RED CURRANT HYBRID FAMILIES
O.D. Golyaeva
The author has analyzed the progenies of red currant varieties from the purposeful crossings and from the open pollination. The valuable families for selection seedlings with the complex of breeding characters have been found (Valentinovka x Osipovskaya, Asya x 1368-12-57, Vika — open pollination). The crossing combinations prospective for selection of seedlings have been se-lected (Niva x 111-19-81, 44-5-30 x 1368-12-57) according to large size of berries and (1044-20-80 x Bayana) according to taste qualities. Selected seedlings are of interest as initial material for fur-ther breeding and for variety investigation.
Key words: red currant, breeding family, crossing combination, productivity, long clusters, large berry size, taste qualities of berries.
