Nature of inheritance, genotype-environment interaction and association of selected agronomic characters in crosses of winter X spring wheats (triticum aestivum L. em Thell)

Creator:: Brajcich, P.
Abstract:: This investigation was motivated by the apparent increase in genetic variability resulting from the systematic combining of gene pools represented by winter and spring types of wheats. It was the objective of this study to provide information regarding the nature of this genetic variability for nine agronomic characters in populations...

Feasibility of developing bread wheat cultivars with acceptable protein content for non-traditional areas

Creator:: Lorenzo, Ariel
Abstract:: The objective of this investigation was to evaluate the possibility of developing high yielding wheat cultivars whose flour would result in acceptable loaf volumes for non-traditional bread wheat growing areas. Spring wheat germplasm employed included high protein hexaploid derivatives from Triticum dicoccoides, and selections from Argentina with good bread milling...

Aluminum toxicity studies in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Creator:: Martinez-Racines, Cesar P.
Abstract:: A nutrient solution technique developed for wheat was used to determine tolerance of rice cultivars to aluminum (Al) toxicity. Pre-germinated rice seed was placed on top of a screen and allowed to grow on the Al-free solution for 72-96 hours or until the primary root was 2-3 cms long. Seedlings...

Compensating effects and gene action estimates for the components of grain yield in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum, L. em Thell)

Creator:: Abi-Antoun, Michel
Abstract:: Five winter wheat cultivars and their diallel crosses were evaluated for plant height, harvest index, deading-maturity duration, the components of yield, (spikes per plant, spikelets per spike, kernel weight and kernels per spikelet)and total plant yield. Two diverse locations, Moro, a dryland site (250 mm annually) located in central Oregon...

Genetic variability and association between agronomic and quality characteristics in twenty-nine female genotypes of Humulus lupulus L.

Creator:: Roberts, Donald Day
Abstract:: The genetic variability in and association between 14 traits that affect maturity, yield, and chemical properties of its product. The plant characters measured were: vigor, flowering date, harvest date, yield, lateral length, nodes per lateral, cones per lateral, cones per vine, cone weight. Alpha-acid and beta-acid content of the cone,...

Chemical and genetic evaluation of high lysine and protein in selected barley crosses

Creator:: Helm, James Henry, 1944-
Abstract:: Four agronomically and genetically diverse spring barleys were used in a crossing program to study the inheritance of lysine in barley and to determine its possible association with certain agronomic and morphological characters. The cultivar Hiproly was used as the source of high protein and lysine. Characters measured included plant...

Combining ability and associations of agronomic traits involving three sources of dwarfism in wheat (Triticum aestivum, L. em Thell)

Creator:: Maya de Leon, Jose Luis
Abstract:: Three genetically different dwarf cultivars of spring wheat were evaluated as potential sources of short stature to use in a wheat improvement program. The study involved a five parent diallel cross which included a semidwarf, a standard height and three dwarf cultivars. The genetic sources of dwarfism included a Norma...

Adaptability of winter wheat cultivars to dryland conditions and their response to water stress

Creator:: Keim, Don Lee
Abstract:: Winter wheat cultivars (Triticum aestivum) were evaluated for their response to water stress and adaptability to a wide range of moisture limited environments. Grain yield was analyzed for ten cultivars at six locations across four years. Regression of the cultivar mean on the year-location mean was used as a measure...

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...
