Genetic Distance Based on SSR Markers and Testcross Performance of Maize Inbred Lines
The identification of parental inbred lines to develop superior hybrids is a rather costly and time-consuming step in maize breeding. In some cases, pedigree information has been used to select diverse parental lines. In the case of Iranian maize inbred lines, this information is not fully available. In this study we investigated the genetic distance (GD) based on Simple sequence Repeats (SSR) ...
متن کاملSSR Variation in Important U.S. Maize Inbred Lines
that some of the inbreds continued to contribute substantially to hybrids marketed in the USA. For example, Historically important public inbred lines continue to play an imB73 and Mo17 were used in about 28% of all seed portant role in maize (Zea mays L.) improvement in many different breeding programs. Their continued use means they have undergone planted in the USA in 1979. This fell to 12.8...
متن کاملGenetic variation for grain mineral content in tropical-adapted maize inbred lines.
Increasing the concentrations of Fe and Zn in staple food crops through breeding has been proposed as one strategy to minimize the adverse effects of widespread mineral deficiencies in humans. This approach requires the presence of adequate genetic differences in concentrations of grain minerals for improvement. Eight trials involving different sets of tropical maize inbred lines adapted to the...
متن کاملGenetic Diversity in Maize (Zea mays L.) Inbred Lines
Thirty yellow inbred lines of normal maize were evaluated for thirteen parameters at the experimental field of Hajee Mohammad Danesh Science and Technology University during 2010-11 to study the genetic divergence using multivariate analysis. The thirty inbreds fell into six distinct clusters. The intra-cluster distances in all the six clusters were more or less low, indicating that the genotyp...
متن کاملSelected Lines and Inbred Strains
In their quest to elucidate the genetic influences contributing to alcoholism, researchers have long used selected lines and inbred strains of rodents. Selected lines are obtained by repeatedly mating those animals within a population that show extremely high or low values of the desired trait. Inbred strains are generated by mating male and female siblings, irrespective of any particular trait...
