Abstract

The inheritance of Rht 8 dwarfing gene wasstudied using a Chinese source (cv. Chuan Mai 18) as dwarf and 10 tall indigenous wheat cultivars. The study revealed that dwarfism caused by Rht 8 source is partially dominant. The crosses of this genotype with the tall parents like C 306, Hybrid 65, K 68, NP 824 and NP 846 can give desirable genotypes.
