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...

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...

Production of haploid plants in selected winter wheat genotypes through anther culture and intergeneric crosses with maize

Creator:: Mendoza, Maria Graciela
Abstract:: A higher level of efficiency in the production of doubled-haploids must be achieved if this procedure is to be beneficial in plant improvement. Of equal importance is the development of protocols, which are not genotypic specific and result in progeny that represent a random sample of gametes from the parental...

Nature of the inheritance of gluten strength and carotenoid pigment content in winter by spring and durum wheat crosses (Triticum turgidum L. Var. durum)

Creator:: Ammar, Karim
Abstract:: Durum wheat cultivars for North-Eastern Oregon have to be competitive in terms of their yield potential with soft white winter wheat cultivars and meet strict quality requirements of the milling industry. Combining the high yield potential of fall planted durum wheat cultivars which have an acceptable level of winter hardiness...

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...

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...

Assessment of genetic resistance to strawbreaker foot-rot (Pseudocercosporella Herpotrichoides) in selected winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars

Creator:: Encinas-Mungarro, Andres
Abstract:: Strawbreaker foot-rot is a major limiting factor to cost efficient winter wheat production in the Pacific Northwest. Development of resistant cultivars has been hindered by the lack of adequate levels of genetic resistance and screening techniques which can consistently detect desired genotypes. Studies were conducted to determine if the reported...

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,...

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...

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...
