For example, the cvorage yearly work load of a 15 horsnpowcr tractor

selection stations extend into zany dircotions of productive and
scientific investigations, They conduct soleotive coed-growing and
experimental agronomic work in grain, leguminous seed and olive orope
and perennial grasoosj they carry on re?carah in chemical ar~rieulture,
physiology and crop protactl.nn. In addit~or,, some station conduct
experimental Mork in animal hushandiiy and farm mechanization.
Selection stat~.ona were givan the following functions:
a) To develop new high-yielding varieties adaptable to local
soil and climatic conditions, and to improve selection and local
varieties.
b) To oultivate superior seeds of agricultural crops which
are suitable to particular zones in sufficient quantities to aesure
an adequate supply for the seed districts of the rayon experimental
forme,
o) To develop agricultural practices which are beet suited to
part3.eular agricultural zones of the Soviet Union and which will lead
to large stable harvests.
The selection and steed growing work of the stations are based on

1?inving ol~nn;ed the tlleoretioal basis of selection praotio?s,
many stations ben to apply inter-variety hybridization followed
by eeleotion of gametes during fertilization, as a method ohioh
creates many different biologically-valuable and agrioulturaliy-
useful varieties.
A comparative study of hybrids of selectioo and forced fertili-
zation showed the :neat advantage of the former over the latter.
This eras clearly shown in the comporison of ,hybrids of sirrt.lar
oombinations obtained by forced pollination and by limited and free
pollination (crossing of airs), in experiments conducted at the
Miranovil Selection Station. For example, in the oroasing of winter
wheat Eritrospermum 15 with Shmitovka lO in 1947, the following
results were obtained in the second generation.

the former exoeeds the standard Ukrainka in yield capacity by an
cwer'ago of 8 centnara pea' hectare, and the 1e~tter by 5.6 contners per
hectare. ThoGe winter whoats, Sovotskaya and Yubiloyneys, are
distinguished from Ukrainka by their greater winter reaistance and
repiatanre to brown rust.
In the past four or f4.ve years, the Uralsk, Shatilovsk, l1arym,
Kraanodarsk, Kamc.linsk, Azorbaydzhan, Stavropol', Barnaul' and
sevoral other etationo have been 3ueeesafu11y conducting work on this
method of freely crossing intervarietiea. A number of seleotaon
atdtions are applying a definite variation of winter forms of wheat
into summer variation, and variationa of summer into winter.
Academician P.P. Luk-yanenko obtained very noteworthy results
in the oourae of his work on the transmutation of the winter whec~.t

effected by using ?il y developed, normally ripened buds of the graft
and the endosperm of the uncultivated plant, Later however, undevel-
ored buds and endosperm were used in transmutations. Such hybridiza-
tion is conducted under field conditions, in which development of the
buds is incomplete. Hybridization therefore is carried over to the
crest or secondary portion of a seed of another variety or typo, which
continues to develop on the maternal plant. In this way vaiuable types

good gr~i;ing, nubstantially intprovecl tho nutritive ua1itio9 of the
kernel of tho winter wheat varietyt, gorvonota, and raised sharply
the resiatanoo to yollow rust quality of tho variety, Voroshilov.
The Onokhogsk Seleotion Station, by using this same method,
improved tho variotioa of summer wheat Leda and Lyutestnong 062.
According to the rosulta of variety testin ~, the improved Lyutedtsens
062 (family 2433) is more yielding than the original by 2 - 3 oentners
po?r hootF~re and the absolute weight of itta kernel is higher.
At the Leningrad Station, in the process o~ seed growing, a number
of high yielding seeds of the summer wheat Tulun 70 3/8 were seleotecl.
The family L-74 excelled the original variety in yield by 5.2 contnera
per hectare or 22% above the standard.
In recent year, a number of stations have widely acoepted
Lyseniko's method of inter-variety orossing to produce an improved
variety of auparior winter rye seeds. The Gort'kov, Morcdov, Onokhoyak,
Kamalinslt Stations from this method obtained a superior seed which
excels original seeds in yield by 2 ? 3 centnera per hectare. Experi-
ence atteststo the great effect of Chia method of artifioial pollination
of farm orops which was suggested by A.I. Muaiyko. For example, with
corn, the increase in harvest of pollinated crops reaehea 3 - 4
centnera per hectare, with winter rye 2 w 4 centnera, with eunflower

It was organised in 193 on the soil base of a poorly constructed
