Semi-Dwarf Cereal Mutants and Their Use in Cross-Breeding III. Proceedings of the Final Research CO-Ordination Meeting on Evaluation of Semi-Dwarf Cereal Mutants for Cross-Breeding Held in Rome, 16-20 December 1985.

摘要

A Co-ordinated Research Program on the ''Evaluation of semi-dwarf mutants as cross-breeding material in cereals'' was initiated in 1980, with the main objective to provide cereal breeders with new, alternative sources of genes for semi-dwarf, lodging resistant plant types. The present publication includes papers presented at the final Research Co-ordination Meeting. Papers presented by participants in the Co-ordinated Research Program demonstrate that these objectives were successfully achieved. As an additional result of this program more improved genotypes of cereals with other desirable characters as earliness, better harvest index and improved plant architecture have become available for practical breeding.
