In open pollinated tomatoes, where the seed parent is known, can you tell the pollen parent by whether or not the seedlings are indetirminant or bush type?
I have seeds from Defiant, bush type, one seedling is definately crawling/indeterminant, and the only other tomatoes around are more defiant and one cherokee
purple. Cherokee purple crawls, and I'm hoping it might be the poppa of one of the seedlings. Does that sound likely?
Let me see, I think folks said earlier that Defiant has one copy each of pH2 and pH3, so the crawling seedling has about 75% odds of at least one resistance gene?
I don't remember reading about resistance in cherokee purple?? Does it have any? Last year was a low blight year here, and the first year I grew Cherokee purple.
