secale montanum is one of the important perennial grasses growingnaturally in arid to semiarid pastures and rangelands, with a typical mediterraneanclimate, in northern and western iran at altitudes of 800-2900 m. in this paper, seedstorage protein profiles of nine wild populations of s. montanum from differentregions of iran and their phenotypically superior progenies as well as a multi-origin...

To develop inbred lines, parents are crossed to generate segregating populations from which superior inbred progeny are selected. The value of a particular cross thus depends on the expected performance of its best progeny, which we call the superior progeny value. Superior progeny value is a linear combination of the mean of the cross's progeny and their standard deviation. In this study we sp...

The research aimed to produce new genotypes by hybridization. It was conducted in the Ornamental Plants Research Center of Mahallat from 2016 to 2018. Four varieties of gladiolus including Amsterdam, White Prosperity, Advance Red and Rose Supreme were chosen for hybridization. The progenies were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The highest heritability in...

A variant clone of vesicular stomatitis virus recovered from a high-passage, evolving virus population replicated rapidly and produced remarkably high yields of virus, but these variants never dominated during further passages. We show that this clone is highly competitive, but it can overwhelm its progenitor population only when seeded above threshold level during dilute passages.

Efficiency in the use of genetic variability, whether existing or created, increases when properly explored and analysed. Incorporation of biotechnology into breeding programs has been the general practice. The challenge for the researcher is the constant development of new and improved cultivars. The aim of this experiment was to select progenies with superior characteristics, whether or not c...

background: the variation of the radon progeny concentration in outdoor environment and meteorological parameters at fine resolution were studied for one year at a continental location, national atmospheric research laboratory, gadanki, india.  materials and methods: the concentrations were measured using alpha progeny meter by collecting air samples at a height of 1 m above the earth’s surface...

grapevine is among some of the most important horticultural crops in the world and as well in iran. since last century attempts have been made throughout the world to improve grapes. research in grape breeding for the purpose of improving table grape as well as raisin traits has started since 1996 in iran with crossing some selected seedless (askary, yaghoti, bidane sefid (sultana) and bidane g...

Tree breeding is basically aimed at producing quality products like seeds and clones and the most valuable contribution of molecular markers in breeding programs would be to reduce the time of selection or to reduce the number of breeding cycles. This can be achieved either by the early identification of superior progeny or by the identification of parents that will yield superior progeny. The ...
