Descripción:	An intervarietal hybridization study was started at EMBRAPA/CPAC in 1980 with the objective to obtain a dwarf cultivar with high yield and fruit quality. However, the techniques used nowadays are inefficient and expensive. A technique from lndian Agriculture Research lnstitute (IARl) which requires few flowers per panicle and many plant shown reduced success in the percentage of hybrid fruits (1.45%). The improvement of lARl's technique using the selection of flowers in the panicle, the anther opening, the control of humidity and also the fungus attack promoted an increase in the success of hybrid fruits for 8.2%. A new technique using top-working on dwarf genotypes and confining then in small cages with pollinator flies, may increase the efficiency and decrease the cost of this research.
