Early types tended to have more synchronized tiller production and to form developed internodes earlier.
Typically, 200-300 tiller heads are produced at 500 seeds/m2.
The developmental stage of the tillers often varied greatly, particularly in late sowings.
However, the 'land to the tiller' script was still powerful enough to dissuade the parties from pushing through the change fearing a political backlash.
For two of the three traits measured, tillering and internode length, there were no significant interactions; the two chromosome segments contributed additively.
These wheats have intermediate tillering capacity (up to ten tillers), long ears (300 mm) and high ear fertility (up to 200 grains).
The principle governing this rule was land to the tiller.
