THE RESULTS OF INTRACULTIVAR CROSSINGS OF ANEMONE CORONARIA L.: COLOR AND SHAPE OF PERIANTH

Summary. The paper presents the results of 30 crossing combinations of Anemone coronaria L. Inheritance of decorative features of a fl ower by seedlings of the fi rst generation is studied. In most case the seedlings from crossing combinations of varieties of the De Caen group inherit perianth parent form, and from 2,2% to 50% seedlings from crossing of anemone varieties of St. Brigit group got perianth shape characteristic for De Caen group. In most situations, as in De Caen group, so in St. Brigit group, seedlings from crossing combinations of varieties with different color corolla had other perianth color. When crossing varieties of St. Brigit 52,2- 98,9% of seedlings in eight from eleven combinations have got other perianth center color. The largest quantity other perianth color were obtained in following crossing combinations: Hollandia × The Bride, Sylphide × The Bride, Mr. Fokker × Hollandia, Sylphide × Hollandia, Sylphide × Mr. Fokker, The Governor × Mount Everest, Admiral × Mount Everest, Lord Lieutenant × The Governor, Admiral × The Governor, The Bride × The Governor.
