¹ The experiment was repeated two times: in 2016 and 2018. In 2016, 12 crosses were evaluated, and in 2018, 6 crosses were evaluated. ² Values from the pair of reciprocal crosses are not significantly different according to the chi-square test at p = 0.05. ³ Values followed by the same letter are not significantly different according to LSD testing at p = 0.05.
