In results of our investigation for induction of gynogenesis were established the suitable cucumber genotypes (T19 and S.R.PI8360) as mother and father components,optimal doses of gamma rays for pollen irradiation(0.3 and 0.5 KGy),some specific peculiarities in development(slower growth and developm...
