Un blé «nain», est [...] une plante dont tous les organes sont réduits : tige, feuille, épi, grain, racine. De tels blés [...] n'ont [...] joué aucun rôle dans l'évolution variétale. Le nanisme dont il sera question ici est partiel, limité, en ce sens qu'il ne porte que sur la longueur des entre-nœuds de la tige : d'où le terme «demi-nain» proposé par VOGEL en 1956 pour ce type de plante. 2, record 2, French, - demi%2Dnain
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Quelques auteurs (EPHRAT, BORLAUG) ont maintenant tendance à revenir à l'appellation «nain»; les plantes dont tous les organes sont réduits sont alors dénommées «nains vrais». Nous utiliserons ici cette dernière terminologie (dans laquelle le qualificatif «nain» implique uniquement une réduction de la longueur de la tige). 2, record 2, French, - demi%2Dnain

Casi todos conocen las dos principales clases de trigo —trigo harinero y trigo duro— pero pocos saben que el trigo también tiene tres hábitos diferentes de cultivo : primavera, invierno y facultativo. El hábito de crecimiento de una variedad limita su supervivencia a ciertas zonas geográficas, definidas principalmente por la latitud. Los trigos con hábito de primavera tienen un ciclo continuo de crecimiento, sin período de inactividad. En las zonas donde los inviernos son severos, como el norte de Kazajstán o Canadá, se siembra el trigo en primavera cuando ya no hay peligro de heladas. En las zonas con inviernos muy moderados, como la India o Australia, se siembra el trigo de primavera en otoño y el cereal crece durante el invierno. 2, record 3, Spanish, - h%C3%A1bito%20de%20crecimiento
