Reciprocal Differences in Tolerance to Seed-Hydration Chilling in F₁ Progeny of Gossypium hirsutum L.

We demonstrated heritable variability of injury response to chilling of imbibing seeds of Gossypium hirsutum L. Response to chilling of imbibing seed from reciprocal crosses of chilling-tolerant and sensitive genetic lines was dependent upon the maternal parent. If the maternal parent of a cross is chilling-susceptible, the F₁ embryo was also susceptible.
