Seed quality and seeding practices can help to reduce pest problems in crops. A healthy, vigorous crop stand is better able to withstand diseases and insect pests, and the crop emerges faster and covers the ground more completely, allowing it to compete more successfully against weeds. 2, record 1, English, - crop%20stand

Le cèphe du blé, Cephus cinctus, ressemble à une petite abeille. La femelle pique avec son ovipositoire en dents de scie la tige du blé, juste sous l'épi, et y dépose ses œufs. Les jeunes larves se développent rapidement et creusent, en mangeant, un canal jusqu'au nœud le plus bas de la tige; là, elles creusent un anneau qui atteint presque l'extérieur. Elles filent ensuite de délicats cocons où elles restent dans un état torpide jusqu'au printemps, époque à laquelle elles se transforment en nymphes. Parvenues à l'état adulte, elles quittent enfin brièvement la tige du blé pour répéter le cycle. 2, record 2, French, - c%C3%A8phe%20du%20bl%C3%A9

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 3, French, - demi%2Dnain

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».

The actual method used in initial crossing of wheat varieties is conditioned by the fact that wheat is bi-sexual and normally self-pollinating. Before the wheat plant has shed its pollen, the anthers are removed with forceps from the flowers of the plant that is to become the female parent, and a cover is slipped over the emasculated wheat head to exclude foreign pollen. Two or three days later, the cover is taken off and ripe anthers are removed from another wheat plant, selected as the male parent, broken over the stigma of each emasculated flower, and the cover replaced. The fertilized egg cells now develop into grains which usually mature a little more than a month later. 2, record 4, English, - self%2Dpollinating

Scientific wheat breeding in Canada had its origin in 1903 when Dr. Charles Saunders (son of William Saunders, the founder of Canadian Experimental Farms) selected one head of Marquis wheat from across of the European variety, Red Fife, and a much earlier maturing, unknown variety of hard red spring wheat from Calcutta, India. Since that time, more sophisticated breeding techniques have evolved but the original challenge of man against nature continues to be ever present. 1, record 8, English, - Marquis%20wheat
