✦ Synopsis


Estimates of additive, dominance, maternal, and paternal components of variance were obtained for a sample of 18 traits, including measurements of yield, scapes, flowers, disk, ray and trans florets, leaves, and branching in the Davis population of Gerbera hybrida. The results, based on the covariance of reciprocals, indicate that although heritability averaged 0.52, extranuclear maternal or paternal effects are not important sources of variability. Therefore, reciprocal differences do not seriously affect estimates of additive variance or heritability in this population.

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
