Hybrids of Ægilops

Nature volume 122, page 610 (1928)Cite this article

Abstract

DURING the last four years I have been engaged in the study of crosses between species of Ægilops. One of these, which I wish to record at present, is the hybrid between A. ovata L. and A. cylindrica Host.; this possesses all the morphological characters of A. triuncialis L. and cannot be distinguished from it except that the hybrids so far have proved sterile I hope shortly to complete the cytological study of the crosses.
