In the years 1964-1994 an extensive programme of wide hybridization within Ihe. Lolium-Festuca complex was carried out in Poland. Six Lolium (ryegrass) and five Festuca (fescue) species at different ploidy level were used for crosses. Hybrids were obtained from 72 cross combinations: 19 interspecific (five Lolium × Lolium and 14 Festuca × Festuca), 51 intergeneric (39 Lolium × Festuca and 12 Festuca × Lolium) and two trispecific (Lolium × Festuca × Festuca), most of them being derived from crosses of four important forage grass species: Lolium multiflorum, L. perenne, Festuca pratensis and F. arundinacea. Interspecific and intergeneric Lolium-F estuca hybrids from 50 cross combinations are maintained at present in the collection of the Institute of Plant Genetics in Poznań. This article presents a complete list of Lolium-Festuca hybrids obtained in Poland in the years 1964-1994 and maintained in the collection. The available literature concerning these hybrids is cited.
