CIMMYT wheats were introduced into Inner Mongolia in early 1970's, and were characterized by short stature with good lodging resistance, big spike, strong tillering ability, and rust resistance. In total, 480,000 ha were planted to Penjamo 62, Potam 70, Yecora 70, Cajeme 71. Yield potential, bread-making quality, and rust resistance of local varieties could be improved by crossing CIMMYT germplasm.
