✦ Synopsis

Estimates of broad-sense heritability for cut-flower vase longevity were 36 and 46 percent for a sample of Gerbera clones. Estimates of narrow-sense heritability for vase longevity were 0, 24 and 38 percent over 3 generations ofthe Davis Population. Response to selection for this character in this population is expected to be slow.

Additive genetic components of variance and narrow-sense heritabilities were estimated for flowering time (FT) and cut-flower yield (Y) for six generations of the Davis Population of gerbera using Derivative-Free Restricted Maximum Likelihood (DFRML). Additive genetic variance accounted for 54% of t
