Notes:
Summary Eighteen clones of white clover chosen at random were examined for their seed setting possibilities. Large differences in the size of the inflorescence and the rate of fertilization were found among the clones, so that breeding strains of white clover with better seed-setting seems possible. The number of ovules per floret seemed not very variable.
