Guide to bread wheat breeding at CIMMYT

This special report provides a detailed introduction to the three subprograms of the CIMMYT Wheat Program. First published in the late 1980s, the report has been updated regularly as the bread wheat breeding methodology has evolved. It addresses the breeding of bread wheat in the three subprograms: bread wheat for irrigated and high rainfall conditions, bread wheat for semi-arid and high latitude conditions, and hybrid bread wheat. The report is designed to help colleagues, trainees, visiting scientists, mid-career fellows, and other interested persons acquaint themselves with the Program's philosophy, objectives, organization, structure, strategies, and specific activities. The authors wish to thank Alma McNab, Wheat Program WriterlEditor, and Ma. Concepcion Castro, Translations Assistant, for assisting in the preparation of this document.
