Abstract: Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a very important cereal crop in China. Seed production is a key step for wheat industrialization. Currently, there are 6 procedures for wheat seed production in China. They are three-nursery, two-nursery, one-nursery, four-stage seed production, circular selection from lines and one-nursery three-stage seed production. To meet the need of wheat industrialization, general principles and a universal procedure for wheat seed production are proposed based on wheat genetic characterizations and analysis on the current procedures for seed production. This paper can be consulted by wheat breeders, seed producers and spreaders.
