Abstract:The need for improved aubergine varieties is increasing because of climate change’s effects such as drought. To solve this problem, the use of wild ancestor of aubergine, Solanum insanum, as a source of genes seems appropriate since this species is found in various climates. The objective was to obtain aubergine genotypes with genes from the wild species, S. insanum, giving them the ability to adapt to drought. Drought tolerance of accessions from Solanum melongena and Solanum insanum and their F<sub>1&l… Show more
