Abstract

To search for appropriate combinations of self-incompatible Chinese radishes, seed set analysis of KU # 1, OW # 1 and Kow Puey, extracted lines were studied at Chia Tai Company Research Station, Chiangmai, from December 1986 to March 1987. differences among S-alleles as well as their homozygotes were confirmed with the lines KU 1-2-12, OW 1-7-3, OW 1-7-7 and Kow Puey 3/7 while Kow Puey 3/5 was doubtful. Possible crossing among those lines showed that KU 1-2-12 x OW 1-7-3, OW 1-7-3 x KU 1-2-12, OW 1-7-7 x Kow Puey 3/7, KU 1-2-12 x OW 1-7-7, KU 1-2-12 x Kow Puey 3/7 and Kow Puey 3/7 x OW 1-7-3 gave notably high seed set of 5.2, 3.2, 3.2, 3.0, 2.8 and 2.3 seeds per pod respectively. These lines were suitable to use as the parental line in F1 hybrid seed production. On the other hand, Kow Puey 3/5 was not recommended to use in hybrid seed program due to its highly self-fertile.
