Six hexaploid triticale strains were crossed as female parents with a set of six commercial
wheat cultivars to study the effect of parental genotypes on crossability in triticale x wheat
crosses. Significant differences were observed in crossability among different parental
lines. Crossability in triticale x wheat crosses ranged from 0.7 to 59.7%. The highest mean
seed sets of 26.3 and 22.50/. were obtained with'DT 78 and Raj 3077, respectively.
