Title: Genetic Analysis on Single Fruit Seed Numbers and Seed Coat Color of Bitter Melon
Abstract: Taking bitter melon inbred line '29'and 'Huizhoudading'as parent,this study developed 6 generations(P1 ,P2 ,F1 ,B1 ,B2 ,F2 )from the cross,and analyzed the inheritance of single fruit seed number and seed coat color,respectively. The results showed that the single fruit seed numbers of bitter melon was controlled by 2 pairs of equi-dominant major genes plus additive-dominant polygenes(E-6 model).The additive effects and dominant effects of the two major genes were equal. The dominant effect of polygenes is positive and F1 expresses over-parent heterosis.Seed coat color of bitter melon was controlled by a pair of dominant genes,black is the completely dominant traits to brown-yellow.
