InvestigationOpen accessPhrase in the titleSelection of Inbred Lines of Alfalfa for Creating Synthetic VarietiesNuraliyev Serikbay Kenzhebaevich, Meirman Galiolla Tolendinovich, Abayev Serik Saribaevich et al.The importance of breeding inbred lines of alfalfa with high combining ability has been shown for using as initial components of newly created synthetic varieties with adjustable genetic basis of the intrapopulational heterosis effect in case of panmixia. The article is dedicated to the following issues of the general scheme of selection process: Self-fertility of 250 heterogeneous genotypes that consist … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 23 Dec 2017 · 8,617 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEvaluation of Inbred Lines and Hybrid Maize (Zea mays L.) for Tolerance to Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth in the Guinea Savanna Agro-Ecological Zone of GhanaA. Bawa, M. S. Abdulai, I. K. AddaiThe study was conducted at the experimental field of the Savanna Agricultural Research Institute (SARI) to screen maize inbred and hybrid lines for Striga tolerance. Maize seeds of hybrid and inbred lines were collected from the West and Central African Maize Collaborative Network (WECAMAN), Boake, La Cote d’Ivoire, for the experiment. The experimental design used was the Randomized Complete Block … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 22 Sep 2015 · 7,788 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEstimation of Genetic Correlations on Sweet Corn Inbred Lines Using SAS Mixed ModelPedram Kashiani, Ghizan SalehProblem statement: Genetic correlations among traits refer to the extent of relatedness among them due to genetic causes. Estimating genetic correlations for quantitative traits is tedious if done manually. Approach: However, the use of the computer software SAS, applying mixed-model analysis of variance has facilitated many recent studies in evolutionary quantitative genetics. Results: In this two-way statistical model, the variance … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 10,891 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Investigation of Organelle Genomes of Extra Nuclear Sunflower Mutants with Variegated PhenotypeIrina Dremuk, Nikolay Kozel, Mariya Logacheva et al.The comparative analysis of complete chloroplast and mitochondrial DNA sequences of the original inbred line 3629 and three extra nuclear mutant lines variegated-1, variegated-15, variegated-17, obtained by the N-nitroso-N-methylurea induced mutagenesis, was done. The studied mutant lines were presented two different phenotypes with diverse chlorophyll content: Pale/green mutant line variegated-17 with 1.8% relative (to 3629 line) chlorophyll content in mutant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 24 Oct 2017 · 7,633 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HETEROSIS AND GENETIC DISTANCES BASED ON SSR MARKERS IN HELIANTHUS ANNUUSA. V. Usatov, A. I. Klimenko, K. V. Azarin et al.Identifying the best inbred combinations for the development of commercial hybrid of sunflower remains the main challenge to sunflower breeders. In the present research the level of heterosis of F1 hybrids, genetic diversity of parental lines based on SSR markers, as well as its connection with specific combining ability of sunflower were studied. Ten sunflower elite inbred lines (3 restorer … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 7 Mar 2014 · 8,003 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy on Nitrogen Concentration of Corn HybridsPravin Gautam, Dawn Gustafson, Zeno Wicks IIIProblem statement: Though Nitrogen (N) is vital in different physiological and developmental processes in plants and animals, it poses several environmental, nutritional and health problems, if present in excess amounts. Reduction in excess input of N into the soil, thereby reducing environmental problems and consequently nutritional and health problems, can be achieved by balancing their concentration in animal feed. Therefore, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 10 Mar 2011 · 8,273 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMapping QTLs Linked to Physio-Morphological and Plant Production Traits under Drought Stress in Rice (Oryza sativa L.) in the Target EnvironmentS. Michael Gomez, S. Satheesh Kumar, P. Jeyaprakash et al.Drought stress is a major constraint for rice (Oryza sativa L.) production and yield stability in rainfed ecosystems. Identifying genomic regions (QTLs) contributing in drought resistance will help to develop rice cultivars suitable for water-limiting environments through marker-assisted breeding. QTLs linked to physio-morphological and plant production traits under drought stress in the field were mapped by evaluating 177 F6 recombinant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 14,471 accessesView PDF Cite
