Selfing


Been waiting for a good opportunity to jump in-  thanks guys
 
I have spoken with a professor on C. maxima plant breeding and it has been shown that this particular species DOES NOT lose plant vigor through imbreeding.   Obviuosly the Willemse line of fruit are the best example of that.  Sorry Bill, but you cant compare fox to pumpkins.
 
The problem lies in that there havent been enough seeds grown from multiple generations of imbreeding. Therefore there isnt enough data  to draw conclusions from.
 
Great job putting up that chart, Rock.  That is some great info there.
