Comparison of Hill and Rod Row Plots in Common and Durum Wheats¹

Yields of 10 cultivars of common and durum wheat were studied in hill and rod row plots in two different years. Correlations between the two methods, when adjusted for attenuation, were high in all four tests. In all cases, the cultivars exhibited a greater range of yield in the hill plots than in the rod row plots. Hill plots appear to be very useful for genetic studies and for early generation selection.

Key Words: Triticum aestivum • Triticum turgidum • Genetic correlation • Yield components • Competition

² Population Geneticist and durum wheat breeder, respectively.
