Creator:: Vanavichit, Apichart
Abstract:: The effects of erect leaf canopies on enhancing grain yield in wheat is not understood. The main objective of this study was to understand the effect of leaf angle on grain yield by comparing randomly derived-lines from crosses of erect and droopy leaf spring wheats. Nine traits associated with canopy...

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...

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...

Creator:: Medina, Luis E.
Abstract:: Parents and progeny populations from a cross of 'Stephens'x 'Tibet dwarf' were grown in a spaced-planted experiment to obtain information concerning the nature of inheritance and possible associations between grain yield and the components of yield. Agronomic traits measured on an individual plant basis were: heading date, days to maturity,...

Creator:: Costa, Jose Maria
Abstract:: A negative relation between grain protein content and grain yield is frequently observed in wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell) i.e. as grain yield increases, grain protein decreases. It has been suggested that the inverse relation between grain yield and protein is in part the result of developing high yielding...
