Overcoming crossing barriers between jatropha (Jatropha curcas L.) and castor bean (Ricinus communisL.)

A limitation in improvement of jatropha (Jatropha curcas) has been the low genetic variation among the available germplasm. An alternative to create genetic variability and incorporate desirable traits is through wide crossing. Due to reproductive barriers, wide crossing in jatropha has had limited...
