β¦ Synopsis
Twelve genotypes representing a wide range of autumn cauliflower were grown in two seasons from six seedling propagation treatments in three sequential sowings. Genotypes differed in their mean time of maturity and spread of maturity, and in their sensitivity to environment for these characters. Those genotypes derived from self-incompatible stocks showed greater stability than those from self-compatible stocks. In particular, a National Vegetable Research Station breeding line 'KC' revealed outstanding stability and is thus a potential new variety. The best environments for discriminating between genotypes were those which gave the least check to early growth.
