Abstract

Fiveteen collections of guayule from three different native populations in the state of Durango i,e; Nazas, Cuencame and Cañon de la Venada, were evaluated for rubber content under rainfall conditions in the Experimental Field at Matehuala, S.L.P. Statistical significant differences were found between population and between collection within populations. The best collections as a group were those from Nazas with a rubber percent range from 4.4 to 19.0 and average of 9.6. Out of the 15 collections from Nazas, eight were superior to variety N593 wich was included as check variety. Only two collection from Cuencame and two from Cañon de la Venada were also superior to variety N593. It is possible that the progeny from some individual plant collections are genetically homogeneous for rub- ber content as indicated by small standard desviations.
