Growth habit of some winter wheat varieties and its relation to winterhardiness and earliness
1939
Quisenberry, K.S. | Bayles, B.B.
Growth habit as determined from spring seedings of 28 wheat varieties was studied at eight experiment stations in the years 1934 to 1936, inclusive. Data on earliness from fall sowing and winter survival from other tests are included in order to study their relation with the degree of winterness. The varieties rank in about the same order to study their relation the the degree of winterness. The varieties rank in about the same order for degree of winterness when grown at each of the stations. Degree of winterness is not closely related to time of heading from fall seeding or to winterhardiness in the varieties studied. None of the early varieties were as hardy as most of the late ones. However, a few of the late varieties were no more hardy than earlier maturing ones.
