✦ Synopsis

May Euphytica find a soil and a climate favourable to its growth" DORST (1) 1. THE NAME EUPHYTICA When a committee was formed to prepare a journal of plant breeding one of the first problems was to find a suitable name.

At first the name "Heterosis" was chosen and the second meeting of the editorial board was held under this name (3 Oct. 1951). But since an association of technical staff of agricultural and horticultural institutions at Wageningen already had this name, it was thought better to give the journal another name.
