| Abstract |
This is the first CIMMYT Biennial Report on Wheat Improvement. Several reasons entered into the decision to change from an annual to biennial reporting format: The high cost of producing a technical report on an annual vs. biennial basis. Unavoidable delays in the production process, making it difficult to produce an annual report in a reasonable time frame. A strong desire to upgrade the scientific content of the report by giving the scientists a better opportunity to synthesize and analyze results. A belief that the formal reporting of research results every 2 years, in combination with other forms of delivery, is sufficient to meet the needs of cooperators. For the most part, this biennial report covers the period of three crop cycles in Mexico, approximately November 1984 through May 1986: 1984-85 Cd. Obregon winter cycle. 1985 Toluca summer cycle. 1985-86 Cd. Obregon winter cycle. |
