The purpose of this study was to determine the nature and amountof genetic variation and possible associations between winterhardinessand earliness in winter x spring wheat crosses.Four winter wheat cultivars selected for differences in earlinessand winterhardiness were crossed with a nonhardy, day length insensitivespring wheat cultivar. The following year, experiments containing...
