The influence of penetration resistance (PR), an easily measured indicator of soil strength, on the growth of Pinus caribaea var. hondurensis radicles and seedlings was investigated. Negative exponential relationships between PR and both radicle and primary root elongation were observed. All root elongation ceased at PR levels of 3.25 MPa. Tip diameters of radicles and primary roots were positively correlated with PR values up to 2.4 MPa, whilst numbers of primary roots, total root lengths and lengths of longest roots were all negatively correlated with PR. Hypocotyl elongation was also reduced by increasing PR, although the reductions occurred at higher PRs than those which inhibited root development. In contrast, primary shoot development was unaffected by PR levels which were sufficient to stop root elongation, but was reduced in soil with a PR of 4.8 MPa. There were significant family x soil type and family x PR interactions for radicle, hypocotyl, primary root and primary shoot development. 1f these interactions are correlated with performance in the field, then they may serve as useful indicators of family suitability to both soil type and high strength soils.

SUMMARYThe vernalization and photoperiodic response of six locally adapted bread wheat cultivars grown under natural daylength conditions during the summer or winter months was examined in glasshouse experiments. The wheat was vernalized by chilling imbibed grains at 2 ± 1°C for 0, 15 or 45 days. Vernalization for 45 days followed by long summer days led to floral initiation in all cultivars within 28 days but vernalization for 0 or 15 days only led to floral initiation in one cultivar. Vernalization followed by long days reduced the time from transplanting to anthesis, resulting in early ear emergence. Vernalization followed by short days accelerated the development of all the cultivars, but normal development could also occur without vernalization at this time of year. Apical differentiation of the primary shoot and its length and development gave the most reliable information on the period of vernalization required.
