Title: Interspecific Hybridization of <i>Trifolium uniflorum</i> L.<sup>1</sup>
Abstract: Interspecific hybrids were obtained by crossing Trifolium uniflorum L. with T. repens L. and colchicine‐induced autotetraploid T. occidentale D. E. Coombe. The conclusion that the matings resulted in species hybrids was based upon morphological, cytological, and chemical evidence. The hybrids were vigorous plants, producedflowers, and varied in fertility. Multiple‐species hybrids of the three species were easily obtained. Trifolium uniflorum and T. occidentale have characteristics that possibly can be used to develop improved varieties of T. repens .
