Abstract

Hordeum spontaneum C. Koch emend. Bacht. varieties have been both intercrossed and crossed with two cultivated barley varieties ofH. vulgare (L.) emend Vav. et Bacht. with a view of eliciting the nature of inheriting “the spikelet-pedicel” of the lateral spikelets and the shape of their apex in the said wildgrowing barley. The investigations of F1 and F2 showed the inheritance of the “spikelet-pedicel” to have a dominating nature and to segregate in F2 in conformity with the Mendelian monohybrid type. In the second case the forms with shorter awn-like formations, or their rudiments, were dominating.
