Genetic variability, correlation and path coefficients for fifteen agro-morphological traits were studied on 100 oat lines including two checks. Genotypic phenotypic of variation high leaf number per tiller weight panicle. Traits such as plant, tiller, panicle, stem width, individual plant yield, length internode thousand seed showed heritability accompanied by genetic advance indicating that t...

to identify qtls controlling grain yield and yield components, an f2 population consisting of 188 plants derived from the cross between two rice pure lines, binam and kadous, were grown in research field of faculty of agricultural sciences, university of guilan, rasht, iran, in 2008, and were recorded for 9 important traits related to grain yield. to construct linkage map, 85 marker of ssrs and...

Morphological and molecular characterization of twenty six landraces rice and four high yielding rice accessions were studied to observe genetic diversity assessment and identification of superior genotypes for crop improvement program. Fourteen morphological and twenty seven DNA based molecular markers, simple sequence repeat (SSR), were used extensively to carry out this study. A wide range o...

The qTSN4 was identified as rice QTL (Quantitative Traits Locus) increasing total spikelet number per panicle and flag leaf area but potentially reducing panicle number depending on the environment. So far, this trade-off was mainly observed at grain maturity and not specifically studied in details, limiting the apprehension of the agronomic interest of qTSN4. This study aimed to understand the...

Wild species and derived introgression lines (ILs) are a good source of genes for improving complex traits such as heat tolerance. The effect of heat stress on 18 yield traits was studied in four treatments in two seasons, under field conditions by subjecting 37 ILs and recurrent parents Swarna and KMR3, N22 mutants, and wild type and 2 improved rice cultivars to heat stress using polycover hou...

Inflorescences of grass species have a distinct morphology in which florets are grouped in compact branches called spikelets. Although many studies have shown that the molecular and genetic mechanisms that control floret organ formation are conserved between monocots and dicots, little is known about the genetic pathway leading to spikelet formation. In the frizzy panicle (fzp) mutant of rice, ...
