With the aim of producing synthetic wheat, interspecific hybridizations were performed between 7 genotypes of wheat grown in Tunisia (female parent) and 11 ecotypes of Aegilops tauschii, originating from Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran, Turkmenistan and Syria (male parent). The possibility of obtaining hybrid plants, with and without embryo rescue, was studied. Aegilops pollen induced the formation of 270 hybrid caryopses from 5638 pollinated flowers. The average number of caryopses obtained was about..
