Abstract
Plants of wheat were cloned and the clonal units transplanted to the field. Mortality was 3 per cent in 1960 and 18 per cent in 1961. A high percentage of the clonal units retillered profusely and produced considerable grain. Differences in yield and its components between units of a clone were non-significant in 1960 but significant differences in number of heads occurred in 1961. Based on the clonal test, varietal differences in yield and its components were significant in 1960 and conformed to known performance. The clonal test established that each of the two varieties was heterogeneous for yielding ability. Significant differences in yield and its components were found between clones. In the seeded small plot test of the next generation significant differences again occurred. Correlations between clonal and small plot yield performance were highly significant.
