Variation in wild populations of papaver dubium

SUMMARY Five juvenile characters which increased or decreased regularly during development showed dominance in the direction of rapid development throughout the vegetative stage. For these

characters, a difference between the mean of the F1's and the mean of corresponding inbreds appeared very early in the life cycle and was maintained thereafter, sometimes being

augmented by more rapid growth of F1's than of inbreds. Two other characters, while agreeing in general with this pattern of growth, deviated from it at one stage of their development.
