Parental selection is crucial for hybrid breeding, but the methods available for such a selection are not very effective. In this study, a 6×6 incomplete diallel cross was designed using 12 rapeseed germplasms, and a total of 36 hybrids together with their parental lines were planted in 4 environments. Four yield-related traits and seed oil content (OC) were evaluated. Genetic distance (GD) was...

Bean seed weight and shape are important traits of different market bean classes. One of the first associations found between a genetic marker and a quantitative trait was reported by Sax ( 1923) for the relationship between seed pigmentation {P gene) and seed weight in common bean. More recently three types of molecular markers have been used to study the genetics of seed weight in common bean...

production of high rapeseed yield is important in rapeseed breeding programs. with regards to the importance of estimation of general combining ability (gca), specific combining ability (sca), additive and dominance genetic variances, gene action, heterosis and heritability, an experiment was carried out in a 9×9 diallel design. nine parents with 36 crosses were studied in a randomized complete...

The aim of the this study was to identify SNP markers associated with five important wheat quality traits (grain protein content, Zeleny sedimentation, test weight, thousand-kernel weight, and falling number), and to investigate the predictive abilities of GBLUP and Bayesian Power Lasso models for genomic prediction of these traits. In total, 635 winter wheat lines from two breeding cycles in t...

this study was conducted to evaluate 13 promising triticale lines and cultivars based on yield traits, metabolizable energy and anti-nutritional compounds. the experiment was carried out using a rcb design with three replications at the seed and plant improvement institute, karaj and gonbad, during 2008-2009 cropping season. these genotypes were studied in the next year, at the animal science r...

Garden orache (Atriplex hortensis L.), a halophytic forb in the family Chenopodiaceae, is well adapted to dry saline habitats. Here, we presented the results of the effect of salinity and seed weight on seed germination and radicle emergence of A. hortensis. Highest germination percentages were obtained under non-saline conditions and increases in salinity inhibited seed germination with less t...

The present experiment was carried out during Kharif, 2019 at Jawaharlal Nehru krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, India. A total of 500 accessions were evaluated and observations recorded on twelve traits viz., days to flower initiation, fifty percent flowering, maturity, plant height (cm), number primary branches per plant, secondary capsules seeds capsule, capsule length 1000 s...

Cherry is a hand-harvested fruit due to various difficulties and constraints. This condition results in the use of labor at high rate. Turkey's annual cherry production level 724 thousand tons. Various tools or machines that have been developed for harvest potential contribute greatly this area. The share required harvesting total requirement around 70%. In research, it was aimed collect necess...
