in order to determine combining ability, heritability and heterosis of some agronomic traits in rice, 4 pure lines were crossed with 2 cytoplasmic male sterile testers. parents and their f1 progenies arranged in rcb design with three replications. analysis of variance showed significant differences among genotypes for all traits, except for filled grains/panicle. furthermore, the crosses effect...

this present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary inclusion of 4, 8 and 12 g kg-1 phytogenic feed additives mixture on performance, egg quality, ovary parameters, serum biochemical parameters and yolk trimethylamine level in laying hens. the results of experiment have shown that egg weight was increased by supplementation of 12 g kg-1 feed additive whereas egg production, feed...

A genetic map containing 103 microsatellite loci and 200 F2 plants derived from the cross R15 × Ye478 were used for mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL) in maize (Zea mays L.). QTLs were characterized in a population of 200 F2:4 lines, derived from selfing the F2 plants, and were evaluated with two replications in two environments. QTL mapping analysis of plant height was performed by using...

Additive manufacturing (AM) is one of the most trending technologies nowadays, and it has potential to become disruptive for manufacturing. Academia industry pay attention AM because enables a wide range new possibilities design freedom, complex parts production, components, mass personalization, process improvement. The material extrusion (ME) technology metallic materials becoming relevant eq...
