REML/BLUP to estimate GxE interaction in co-ordinated wheat trials

Evaluation of genotype × environment interaction in durum wheat (Triticum turgidum var. durum L.) regional yield trials

The objective of this experiment was to analyze genotype × environment (GE) interaction for grain yield of 20 durum wheat genotypes to identify the yield stability and adaptability of genotypes using GGE biplot method as well as some univariate stability statistics. The genotypes were evaluated in three rainfed stations of Sararood (Kermanshah), Maragheh and Shirvan, Iran under both rainfed and...

Co-ordinated expression of amino acid metabolism in response to N and S deficiency during wheat grain filling

Increasing demands for productivity together with environmental concerns about fertilizer use dictate that the future sustainability of agricultural systems will depend on improving fertilizer use efficiency. Characterization of the biological processes responsible for efficient fertilizer use will provide tools for crop improvement under reduced inputs. Transcriptomic and metabolomic approache...

Optimal Co-ordinated Control of Hydropower Plants

River hydropower plants must accomplish several tasks. They have to generate electric energy, guarantee the navigation and reduce the extent of a flood if possible. If there is a cascade of hydropower stations in a river, then it is not possible to solve these tasks with a decentralized control strategy optimally. One is faced with a multiple criteria optimization problem. This contribution pre...

Dominance and Stand Structure Analyses of a GXE Interaction Trial

Intra-specific competition of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) is a key factor for individual tree development. Liu and Burkhart (1994) indicated that at the seedling stage environmental gradients dominate on tree growth, where intraspecific competition dominate later stages of the stand. However, little information has been provided on how genetic material and intensive silviculture interactions af...
