Expression of Determinate Habit in Cucumbers (Cucumis sativus L.)1

Year: 1971

Type: article

Abstract: Inheritance of determinate habit in cucumbers was reinvestigated using 3 different sources of the determinate character. The determinate genes in the 3 lines were allelic. The penetrance of a determinate gene when present in a single dose in the heterozygotes was dependent upon its relative dominance, the presence of modifiers, and the presence or absence of early fruit set.
