Natural Crossing in Fiber Flax

Japanese Journal of Crop Science, 1959
Fiber flax belongs to self-pollinating plant, but in the flowering period flowers are usually visited by many kind of insects such as honey bees, Bombus spp., Megachile spp., hover flies, butterflies, etc. The investigation was carried out from 1954 to 1957 to know how many extent viable foreign pollen will be brought and how many natural crossing will
