Abstract

In the past twenty years many workers have made contributions to a better understanding of hybridization and introgression through studies of members of the grass family. The present study is an attempt to increase the understanding of the importance and amount of hybridization and introgression in members of the Tribe Hordeae. This study is concerned with a hybrid complex involving Agropyron subsecundum (Link) Hitchc. (bearded wheatgrass), Agropyron trachycaulum (Link) Malte (slender wheatgrass) and Elymus glaucus Buckl. (blue wild rye).
