Abstract
The crossability percentages of 131 landraces of wheat (Triticum turgi dum L.) native to Sichuan, Shaanxi, Gansu and Xinjiang provinces of Ch ina with rye (Secale cereale L.) were tested. 45 landraces showed cros sability percentages higher than 5% with 5 landraces expressing crossa bility percentages over 60%. The geographical distribution of crossabi lity of these tetraploid wheat landraces was reported. Some utilizatio n of high crossability resources was also discussed.
