Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Medicago hybrida and M. suffruticosa are closely related, as indicated by ease of hybridization and the vigor and fertility of the F1.
- Observation The F1 of Medicago hybrida x M. suffruticosa showed good pollen viability (94-98%).
- Observation In the F2, glandular hairs on pods versus no hairs segregated in a normal 1:3 ratio.
- Observation Hairiness of M. suffruticosa was recessive to the no-hair condition of M. hybrida.
- Observation M. suffruticosa possessed the dominant alleles for pod coiling.
- Observation M. hybrida could not be hybridized with the M. sativa-falcata group.
- Observation M. suffruticosa could not be hybridized with the M. sativa-falcata group.
- Observation M. leiocarpa could be crossed with both M. hybrida and M. suffruticosa.
