Seeds, Rootstocks & BreedingWill pollinating a mango flower with another variety immediately change the flesh into a hybrid?
The cross concerns the sexually produced embryo and the future plant grown from it. The flesh surrounding the seed belongs to the fruiting mother tree, so its appearance is not a direct identification of the seedling's eventual fruit. Keep fruit observations and offspring observations separate. To assess the new combination, establish the sexual seedling, verify its pedigree where needed, and evaluate its own fruit later.
