Hordeum Depressum Crosses With the Hordeum Murinum Complex

Plant type and chromosome behavior of the Hordezrvz I J T Z L T ~ I ~ Z L ~ ~ ~ coillplex were reported by A~Iorrison (1958), Ailorrison et al. (1959) and Rajhathy and R~Iorrison (1962). They have labeled the genonies as GG for H . ~ ~ ~ L C Z L ~ J Z Steud. (2X), GGMhlI for H. I ~ ~ L Y ~ I ~ Z L ~ L. (4X) and G G M h l H H for H. ~nzlriI I Z L Z L. (6X). This paper supports the previous work and also includes somc additional investigations involviilg crosses between H. depressz~77z Rvdb. and the H .
