Quantile Regression Facilitates Simultaneous Selection of Negatively Correlated Floral Traits among BC1F1 Progeny of Male-fertile Hybrid Hibiscus Cultivars Lohengrin and Resi (H. syriacus × H. paramutabilis)

Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 144(1), 70–76.

By: H. Chen*, L. Xue*, T. Li* & R. Contreras*

author keywords: hybrid sterility; wide hybrid; ornamental plant breeding; woody plant breeding
TL;DR: The female fertility of hybrid cultivars was extremely low or zero; however, the male fertility was not reduced compared with H. syriacus cultivars and quantile regression was recommended to set a single selection threshold to be applied to the selection of two negatively correlated traits, which was more effective than independent selection of petal numbers and petal areas among progeny.
