Leaf marks change considerably from strain to strain. As well as these continually occurring adaptations in leaves, there are a considerable number of mutations and possible features in leaf shape. It may turn out that leaf shape is related with other characteristics in Blow. Broad leaflets might be linked with a low calyx-to-leaf proportion and [...]

Seedling marks can be exceedingly helpful in the efficient and deliberate choice of future parental stock. If correct selection can be exercised on little sprouts, much bigger populations can be grown for 1st selection, as less space is needed to raise little sprouts than mature plants. Whorled phyllotaxy and resistance to damping-off are 2 marks [...]
