Identification and development of cultural practices for upland rice production systems for savanna soils of Colombia

Creator:: Leal-M, Dario
Abstract:: A great potential for increasing upland rice production exists in the savanna soils of Colombia. These vast areas are currently underutilized. However, they have good soil structure, flat topography, coupled with sufficient and well distributed rainfall, making savanna soils ideal for upland rice cropping system. The major constraints to upland...

A comparison of three systems of phenotypic selection for grain yield in three spring barley populations

Creator:: Hayes, Patrick M.
Abstract:: Concerns regarding the most effective means of evaluating segregating generations of spring barley prompted this investigation. Three methods of selection were considered: bulk, pedigree, and single seed descent. F₆ lines derived by each method were grown in a replicated yield trial. The effectiveness of each method was measured in terms...

Estimates of genetic variability resulting from single, top, and double cross populations in durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var. durum)

Creator:: Abdennadher, Mourad
Abstract:: The success of a plant breeding program depends upon the availability of useable genetic diversity. Such diversity may be enhanced depending on the type of hybridization strategy employed. Segregating progenies resulting from F2 populations, a double cross, and a top cross were compared for the amount of useable genetic diversity...

Chemically induced pollen supression and subsequent natural outcrossing in selected wheat cultivars (Tritcum aestivum L. en Thell)

Creator:: Lewis, Hal A.
Abstract:: Effective chemical control of pollination would provide an alternative to the cytoplasmic male-sterile system in hybrid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production. The objective of this study was to determine concentration, formulation, growth stage of application and genotypic effects on levels of induced pollen suppression and subsequent natural out-crossing from foliar...

A comparison of two methods of divergent mass selection for heading date in two winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell) crosses

Creator:: Frederickson, Leslie John
Abstract:: Responses to two cycles of mass selection for heading date, followed by selfing or intermating, were studied in two diverse winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell) crosses. Selection was bidirectional, resulting in early and late populations for each mating system, cycle, and cross. The influence of mass selection for...

Identification and inheritance of factors influencing the rate and duration of grain fill in selected wheat populations, (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell)

Creator:: Chuhe, Chen
Abstract:: To study the grain filling traits in wheat, two winter cultivars and four spring cultivars were selected. The resulting Fl, F2, F3 and backcrosses were tested. The following measurements were made: a) Visual traits for physiological maturity (PM), b) Grain dry weight accumulation, c) Regression models for grain filling period,...

Use of combining ability estimates to identify the genetic potential of selected winter parental lines (Triticum aestivum L.em Thell)

Creator:: Masood, Muhammad Shahid
Abstract:: A major factor limiting the efficiency of plant improvement programs is the lack of knowledge as to which parental combinations to make when working with quantitatively inherited traits. The primary objective of this study was to provide information regarding the use of combining ability analysis to predict which cross combinations...

Potential reciprocal differences for selected traits in six different F₁ wheat populations

Creator:: Stein, Ira Steven
Abstract:: Concerns about the possible reciprocal differences resulting from systematic crossings of winter and spring wheat gene pools prompted this investigation. If traits can be improved by simply reversing the direction of a cross, then identification of the best female parent in a cross would be helpful for breeding programs. Two...

Natural outcrossing in spaced planted F₂ populations and solid seeded advanced generations of wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell)

Creator:: Boinnet, Jerry K. K.
Abstract:: This study was conducted to investigate the possible contamination of foreign pollen at different stages of a wheat breeding program. These included spaced planted F₂ segregating populations, replicated yield trials and seed multiplication. The experimental wheat materials consisted of four different F₂ populations, four cultivars and two experimental lines. Two...

Methods of evaluation, effects of intermating and results of one cycle of S₁ family recurrent selection in barley

Creator:: Mareck, James
Abstract:: The focus of this study was to determine if S₁ family recurrent selection might be successfully used for barley improvement. Objectives were: 1) to identify suitable methods of evaluating grain yield in small plots, 2) to study the effects of intermating on mean values and variances of selected agronomic characters,...
