Abstract

Very little information is available on the genetics of seed size and the initial stages of plant development in peas. An experiment involving F2 material available from a full 6 x 6 diallel set of crosses involving 2 wild forms, 2 primitive and 2 European cultivars was set up to investigate a number of plant characters. These were seed weight, seedling shoot and root length and the number of lateral roots at 6, 7, 8 and 9 days after germination, and shoot and root fresh weight at 9 days.
