Abstract
Hybrids produced by crossing Japanese mint with Mentba spicata, the common wild spearmint, gave good yields of oil per acre which was low in menthol content. Hybrids of Japanese mint with Mentba aqrratica produced oils high in menthol content but low in yield per acre. Both hybrids were more vigorous than the female parent, and one was resistant to mint rust. Two tetraploids of spearmint obtained colchicine treatment contained only traces of oil.
