The experimental allopolyploid (2n = 42) Triticum durum Desf. cv. Cappelli (2n = 28) × Haynaldia villosa (L.) Schur. (2n = 14) obtained in 1972 has now reached the 12th generation. In the present paper, morphological data on the allopolyploid plants from the 8th to the 10th generation are reported. A comparison between the characters of the allopolyploid and its parents is also presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
