Abstract

Changes in the number of days to first emergence of the spike head with increasing duration of vernalization were examined in the common wheats (Triticum aestivum L.) 'Rescue,' 'Winalta,' 'Kharkov 22 MC,' and the disomic substitution lines of 'Winalta' and 'Kharkov 22 MC possessing the 5A chromosome from 'Rescue.' The data suggest the existence of three Vrn1 alleles in addition to the Vrn1 allele which occurs in 'Cadet.'Key words: vernalization, Triticum, Vrn alleles, chromosome 5A.
