Abstract
As a consequence of selection the distribution and frequency of B chromosomes varies among survivors of rye seedlings planted in different environments. The mean B frequency per plant decreased under conditions of "high" as compared with "low" density of planting. Differences in weather and soil type between two sites also caused a significant shift in the distribution and frequency of B chromosomes.
