4 o6 THE WHEAT PLANT 



VI. HYBRIDS OF VARIETIES AND FORMS OF THE SAME RACE 



OF WHEAT 



By far the greatest number of wheat hybrids have been produced by 

 the crossing of varieties and forms belonging to the same race, and the 

 hybridisation of the vulgare forms is assiduously carried on by many 

 workers in almost all the large wheat-growing countries. 



The inheritance of the several differentiating characters is generally in 

 agreement with the conclusions summarised in pages 363-377.
