A novel source of genetic variation in ryegrasses ( )

A short period of colchicine treatment at the seedling stage induces changes in the capacity for tillering, vegetative growth and flowering time in inbred lines of Lolium multiflorum . The changes are heritable and are observable in the selfed-seed generation following that in which the treatment wa...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A short period of colchicine treatment at the seedling stage induces changes in the capacity for tillering, vegetative growth and flowering time in inbred lines of Lolium multiflorum . The changes are heritable and are observable in the selfed-seed generation following that in which the treatment was given. Information is also given to confirm such changes in an additional ten inbred lines of Lolium perenne .
