Abstract
Given an integer partition of , a realization of is a latin square with disjoint subsquares of orders . Most known results restrict either or the number of different integers in . There is little known for partitions with arbitrary and subsquares of at least three orders. It has been conjectured that if then a realization of always exists. We prove this conjecture, and thus show the existence of realizations for many general partitions.
