Awesome development and such helpful info put in more layperson terms (thanks!) on the haploid information, Maurice, thanks! And, right, Mike, the idea is that after Tets are converted and crossed further for their mutation value (for example, there are at least six generations behind the Tet cultivar Edith Sliger) you could then get back to the diploid form to cross Dip Edith Sliger further with the dip lines (thus possibly increasing the genetic mix of the dip lines). Great to have more about this to read during the winter! Thumbs up
