Özet

In this study five generation inbred lines of summer squashes (Cucurbita pepo L.) were developed through inbreeding by using earliness as the selection criteria where plant, flower, fruit and seed charecteristics were investigated. Plants were grown in two seasons in a year. In 1999, six inbred lines [Safir 1(8), Safir 1(9), Gieda 11(38), Gieda 7(20), Atlanta 7(23), Atlanta 7(24)] and four hybrid lines [GiedaxSafir 6 (15), GiedaxSafir 6 (23), Gieda x Atlanta 12 (16), Gieda x Atlanta 12 (18)] in F-5 generation were grown in randomized block design with three replications. Data related to plant, flower, fruit and seed characteristics of these 10 lines are presented.
