| Abstract: | The genome of Tritordeum, AABBHchHch, was substituted into the cytoplasms of Triticum aestivum, T. turgidum and Hordeum chilense by repeated back-crossing to produce alloplasmic lines. This substitution did not greatly affect the characters studied, except yield per plot and fertile ears per plant, which were lower on T. turgidum cytoplasm. Cytoplasm from either H. chilense or T. aestivum could be used for breeding tritordeum. |
