By: Contributor(s): Material type: ArticleArticleLanguage: English Publication details: 1956. Canada : National Research Council of Canada,ISSN:
  • 1916-2790
  • 1916-2804 (Online)
Subject(s): In: Canadian Journal of Botany v. 34, no. 4, p. 629-640Summary: The procedures involved in the various phases of chromosome substitution in common wheat are briefly outlined and explained. Complications encountered with reciprocal translocations are clarified. The following subjects are discussed: development of chromosome-deficient series in other varieties, transfer of single chromosomes from donor varieties to chromosome-deficient lines to develop substitution lines, alien substitutions, and combination of two chromosome substitutions into a single line. There is a brief discussion of the value of the chromosome substitution method especially in the study of gene dosage and interaction as affecting certain characters.
