to identifying of the high yielding wheat lines with optimal characteristics and to determine the traits which could be used as the selection index for increasing of grain yield, 40 recombinant inbred lines derived from a cross between norstar and zagros cultivars were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications. the measured characters consisted of peduncle weight, ...

some substitution lines between two parental lines for complex traits allows for the identification of single Genetic analyses of complex traits in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) chromosomes containing QTLs for those traits (Berke are facilitated by the availability of unique genetic tools such as chroet al., 1992a,b; Cantrell and Joppa, 1991). Single recipromosome substitution lines and recombin...

Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) is an important cash crop, and its agronomic traits directly affect yield and quality. Molecular studies on flax remain inadequate because relatively few flax genes have been associated with agronomic traits or have been identified as having potential applications. To identify markers and candidate genes that can potentially be used for genetic improvement of cruci...

Genetic analyses and association mapping were performed on a winter wheat core collection of 96 accessions sampled from a variety of geographic origins. Twenty-four agronomic traits were evaluated over 3 years under fully irrigated, rainfed and drought treatments. Grain yield was the most sensitive trait to water deficit and was highly correlated with above-ground biomass per plant and number o...

in order to determine the relationship between the variables grain yield and biological yield and some important agronomic traits, and to find the direct and indirect effects of important agronomic traits on both grain and biological yields, 364 soybean genotypes (3 planting dates) were studied. the study was based on a design augmented with 3 checks and 6 blocks implemented, in seed and plant ...
