Genetic Achievements of Claw Health by Breeding

Mendel's search for true-breeding hybrids.

It has been widely believed that Gregor Mendel’s experiments with peas (genus Pisum) were designed to discover the basic principles of heredity (genetics). Those more familiar with the history of genetics know that his work with peas sought to explain the laws governing the origin and development of hybrids (Hartl and Orel 1992, p. 245; Monaghan and Corcos 1985, p. 49–50; Stern and Sherwood 196...

Use of Flow Cytometer in Breeding Festuca X Lolium Hybrids

4-97 ABSTRACT Ploidy in various generic Lolium Festuca progenies were assessed by flow cytometry and compared to conventional chromosome counting. In non-segregating triploid and tetraploid progenies, the cytometer estimated so accurately the level of plant ploidy that chromosomes counting would be no use. In segregant progenies, all the tetraploid plants according to the cytometer had effectiv...

Breeding three line rice hybrids with good grain quality

Studies were conducted on 20 rice hybrids with checks to assess the genetic variability, heritability and correlation among the genotypes for fifteen grain quality characters and grain yield. Seeds collected from the thirteen hybrids and check varieties were used for grain quality analysis. To assess the cooking qualities, a total of 30 unbroken milled grains were measured for their length and ...
