| Summary: | On the basis of the correspondence between N. I. Vavilov and G. D. Karpechenko in 1924-1926, their working relationship during this period has been analyzed. G. D. Karpechenko had just become head of a newly established genetics laboratory at Vavilov’s institute, and the director tried to help him to understand the tasks and research methodology. As a result, for the years ahead, theoretical justification and experimental implementation of new methods of breeding material development was identified. A comprehensive genetic study of the collection of plant genetic resources was made, and its further utilization in practical breeding work with major agricultural crops was worked out. |
