THE PHYSICAL-CHEMICAL ASSESSMENT OF PARENTAL GENOTYPES USED IN THE BREEDING PROGRAMME OF MORUS SP. PLANTS
Abstract
The paper work present the physical chemical assessment of parental genotypes used in obtaining of new mulberry hybrid lines developed in the Mulberry Breeding Programme. The experimental works used 5 female mulberry varieties belonging to Morus alba, Morus bombycis and Morus multicaulis and 2 Morus alba male mulberry varieties. The values of somatometric and chemical content estimation shall constitute the standard values for mulberry hybrids selection.
