accessions that produce monoembryonic seed generally
contain zygotic embryos, and of course these are the preferred
seed parents for breeding. The number and diversity
of high quality, monoembryonic diploid parents is limited,
though some that have been used by various programs
around the world include ‘Clementine’ selections, ‘Fallglo’,
‘Fortune’, and ‘Temple’ for mandarin breeding. In the
UF-CREC citrus breeding program, we are also utilizing a
number of good new monoembryonic parents from our
diploid citrus breeding program, many shown previously to
possess good general combining ability, producing families
with relatively high percentages of hybrids that yield fruit
with acceptable quality. For grapefruit/pummelo improvement,
selected high quality pummelos are being used as
seed parents.
