Inheritance of Plant Height in two Ethiopian Castor Varieties N3 | TTL | RDF/XML | JSON-LD
Ethiopian Institute of Agricultural Research (EIAR)Castor varieties are tall in plant height which makes them difficult for harvesting. A study was carried out to investigate the inheritance of plant height among two tall Castor varieties Hiruy and Abaro and one dwarf experimental line MD-1 during 2012 to 2014 at Melkassa. The F1 from reciprocal crosses of Abaro and Hiruy with MD 1 were all tall. The F2...Created March 18, 2023 • Updated December 30, 2023 -
