INTERPLOT COMPETITION BETWEEN WHEAT OR BARLEY CULTIVARS OF DIFFERING HEIGHTS

Robert J. Baker, B. G. Rossnagel

Open publisher page 6 citations

Abstract

Four trials with 18 triplet combinations of tall, intermediate and short cultivars of spring wheat, and four trials with 18 triplet combinations of one short and two tall cultivars of spring barley, were conducted over 3 yr at Saskatoon to test the hypothesis that differences in height would not cause interplot competition for grain yield. Significant competition between cultivars was detected in two trials with wheat and in one of the barley trials.Key words: Wheat (spring), Triticum aestivum L., barley (spring), Hordeum vulgare L., interplot competition, grain yield
