and am so glad for the forum search function to reference back here ... this process has already identified three triploids that are just what i'm hoping to work with in bridging, and are available at $5 each from vendors i know and trust. most appreciative of the list and hybridizing info!
the layers of scientific knowledge here are so very helpful, and the conversation making the steps toward understanding it all, and using that information to move forward, are superb.
