Abstract
THE spike of Triticum vavilovi Jakub. is distinctive in that the internodes of the rachilla are more elongate and the number of rachilla nodes increased compared with other hexaploid wheats. The elongated rachilla internodes sometimes so reduce the extent to which the florets overlap as to give the spikelet two or three distinct levels (Fig. 1).
