Comment	[ Hide all but 1 of 8 ] Major hexaploid wheat types are catagorized into four groups with respect to three major gene pairs that control gross morphology, namely, Q & q, C & c, and S1 & s1 (737). The genotypes of the groups are as follows: Common wheat QQ/cc/S1S1 vulgare group. Club wheat QQ/CC/S1S1 compactum group. Shot wheat QQ/cc/s1s1 sphaerococcum group. Spelt wheat qq/cc/S1S1 spelta group, including vavilovi. The majority of hexaploid wheat stocks are already, or can be readily, classified into these groups. Durum and carthlicum groups have the genotype 'QQ/cc/S1S1' (743). Diploid wheat is assumed to have genotype 'qq'.
