If a tetraploid blueberry pollinates a diploid blueberry will it be seedless? Or just without viable embryos?

    Can a northern highbush blueberry pollinate a southern highbush, or  a rabbiteye blueberry?  
  I would presume that if their bloom periods were concurrent, all of the different blueberry types/species could serve as pollenizers for one another, provided appropriate pollenators(bumblebees, etc.) are present.
