Inheritance Of Chaff Color, Head Shape, And Grain Texture In Wheat, Delmar C. Tingey
Inheritance Of Chaff Color, Head Shape, And Grain Texture In Wheat, Delmar C. Tingey
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The data presented in this thesis are the results obtained from a study of the F2 and F3 generations from a cross between the wheat varieties, Dicklow and Hard Federation. Toward the end of the summer of 1922 this problem was assigned to me by Professor George Stewart. The plants then growing in the field were in the F2 generation, the cross having been made in 1920 by Professor Stewart. The chief purpose of the cross was to improve the grain quality of spring-irrigated wheat by the application of Mendelian principles in such a way as to …

In handling grain the question of the changes that may occur in weight after threshing is always before the dealer. If there is any considerable loss during storage his profits are consumed, while if there is a gain it is possible for him to work on a much closer margin.

Farmers are urged to treat all their seed grain with Formalin, during the coming spring, and thus save to the state, next year, thousands of dollars now lost by smut-infested grain.
Formalin can be purchased at any drug store for about seventy-five cents per pound. Pour one pound of Formalin in fifty gallons of water and completely submerge the seed grain, which is loosely held in burlap sacks, for ten minutes. Dry the seed and it is ready for use.
