Crossability
Trait information:
Species can be crossed when EBN numbers are the same. Varieties (2n=48) have 4EBN, derived dihaploids (2n=24) 2EBN. Published EBN nummers summarised by Spooner & Hijmans (2001). In some cases a best guess was used. For interspecific hybrids the EBN number of the parents is used, when identical.
