A miniature plot for cereal testing that provides approximately the same competitive pressures of population dynamics found in rod rows has been devised and tested. The linear hill plot is 30.5 cm long. Approximately 2.4 replicates are needed to give precision equal to one replicate of a single rod row. Linear hill plots should have particular value in situations where seed, land or operating costs are limiting, for example, as supplementary tests or for hybrid wheat (Triticum aestivum) and early testing.
