Özet
The inheritance of day-neutrality in octoploid Fragaria L. was investigated in crosses between day-neutral (DN) x short day (SD) and DN x DN types using F. xananassa Duchesne in Lamarck cultivars and elite selections of F. virginiana Miller and F. chiloensis (L.) Miller. Genotypes were considered as DN if they flowered under both the SDs of spring before 30 May (<14 hours) and the long days of summer after 24 July (>15 hours). Wide ranges in the percentage of DN progeny were found among the families regardless of species background (30 % to 87 % in DN x SD and 22% to 93% in DN x DN crosses). None of the families fit the segregation ratios expected if DN was regulated by recessive alleles at one locus, and only about half of the families fit the segregation ratios expected if a single dominant allele regulated DN. Several two-gene models fit the segregation data better than the single locus ones, but none of the genetic models tested fit the DN segregation ratios at the ends of the distribution range. The wide range observed in the percentage of DN progeny across all the families is most consistent with a polygenic model. Several other kinds of observations supported the multigenic regulation of DN: 1) Different DN parents crossed to the same SD genotype often produced different percentages of DN progeny, 2) Some of the day-neutrality sources were more powerful than others in producing of DNs, and 3) None of the DN parents produced 100% DN progeny, which would be expected if there were homozygous dominant DN individuals. Specific combining abilities for DN and flowering strength were significant, while general combining abilities for these traits were not. Our results suggest that parental combinations can be selected that will generate very high proportions of DN progeny that bloom for long periods of time.
