Seed yield is a major breeding target in tetraploid red clover. We investigated if marker‐assisted parentage analysis can identify progeny plants with two high seed‐yielding parents in tetraploid red clover and if this technique is more advantageous than traditional half‐sib selection. Parentage analysis was successfully performed on the progeny from the 10% highest seed‐yielding genotypes from a...
Red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) is a major forage legume crop with diploid and tetraploid cultivars. Seed yield is an important trait in red clover, but the underlying reasons for low seed yield in individual genotypes are not well known. Here we investigated direct associations between seed yield and ovule abortion, male meiotic abnormalities, and pollen quality in well-characterized, diploid...
Tetraploid red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) often produces insufficient seed to be economically interesting. Numerous studies have identified poor pollination due to long corolla tubes as its cause, but other studies disagree. Therefore, we investigated seed yield, corolla tube length and flowering traits in 244 plants from five diploid and five tetraploid cultivars during 2 years. Tetraploids produced...
