Background: This study was conducted during the 2020/2021 cropping season at Setif Agricultural Experimental Station, it aims to assess efficiency of using numerical image analysis (NIA) in selection durum wheat genotypes semi-arid areas. Methods: The genetic materials used this consist 11 advanced lines and 4 which 3 are local landraces as control evaluate their performance, tested were sown a...

This study was carried out with five triticale cultivars (Özer, Truva, Karma-2000, Alperbey and Tatlıcak-97) 10 advanced lines to determine the grain yield components during 2020-2021 2021-2022 growing seasons under Duzce ecological conditions. In this study, parameters of genotypes such as spike length, number spikelets per spike, grains weight thousand kernel weight, were investigated. Accord...

Grain weight, which is controlled by quantitative trait loci (QTLs), is one of the most important determinants of rice yield. Although many QTLs for grain weight have been identified, little is known about how different alleles in different QTLs coordinate to determine grain weight. In the present study, six grain-weight-QTLs were detected in seven mapping populations (two F2, one F3, and four ...

Genomic regions responsible for accumulation of grain iron concentration (Fe), grain zinc concentration (Zn), grain protein content (PC) and thousand kernel weight (TKW) were investigated in 286 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from a cross between an old Indian wheat variety WH542 and a synthetic derivative (Triticum dicoccon PI94624/Aegilops squarrosa [409]//BCN). RILs were grown in si...

to evaluate durum pasta quality traits, using international standards, a study was conducted on seven improved and local durum wheat varieties. the traits examined included grain vitreousity (i.cc. no. 129), grain hardness index (h.i.), yellow berry (y.b.(, black point (h.p.), hectoliter weight (h.l.w.), thousand kerne! weight (t.k-w.j, protein percentage (i.cc. no. 105.1), protein quality ...

Wheat is a major staple food crop providing about 20% of dietary energy and proteins, and food products made of whole grain wheat are a major source of micronutrients like Zinc (Zn), Iron (Fe), Manganese (Mn), Magnesium (Mg), Vitamin B and E. Wheat provides about 40% intake of essential micronutrients by humans in the developing countries relying on wheat based diets. Varieties with genetically...
