Parthenocarpic multiflora

March 12, 2016

Is anyone breeding a parthenocarpic multiflora tomato? That would be interesting.

Parthenocarpic parent candidates might include at least these:
* Gold Nugget
* Santiam
* Siletz
* Legend
* Oroma
* Saucey

Oregon Cherry is considered to have a low degree of parthenocarpy. Another possibility.

I have and am growing Siletz and Legend.
They do set fruit in our cool spring weather here in PNW.

Are you saying you crossed a parthenocarpic tomato with a multiflora tomato?

No , sorry for the misunderstanding.

I have not made crosses.

No worries. You just had me a little excited is all.

Your input that you gave is still appreciated, though.

I was planning on crossing ILDI (thank you Ginger2778) and Siletz this year because I was wondering the exact same question. What would these two genes do together in the same plant?

I'll let you know how it goes.

Awesome. That's exactly what I was thinking. Thanks for your interest.
