NAFEES ALTAF, M. MOHSIN IQBAL, ASIA GULNAZ AND EHSAN ULLAH KHAN

Abstract: Narrow embryonic leaves are characteristics of seedless cell lines. Narrow embryonic leaves are related to over 20 seed shapes and in small size seeds which have higher frequency of narrow embryonic leaves. The intensity of leaf narrowness varied in different seeds. It seems that more than one factor is involved in seedless trait in cultivars of Kinnow mandarin.
