Genetic improvement of Grain Yield by Determination of Selection Index in Single Cross Hybrids of Maize (Zea mays L.)
Selection based on proper selection indices can be one of the most effective methods for indirect selection of yield and yield components, simultaneously. In order to determination of selection index for improvement of maize yield, 60 single cross maize hybrids were planted in two separate experiments (drought stress and normal conditions) based on randomized complete block design (RCBD) with t...
متن کاملGrain yield stability of single cross maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids over three different environments
An investigation was conducted to determine the grain yield performance of seventy two single cross maize hybrids, their nine parents and one commercial check across three seasons (Summer, Kharif and Rabi) of the year 2006 at the Department of Millets, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore. The design lay out was a randomized blocks design with three replications. The additive main eff...
متن کاملMaize (Zea mays L.).
Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation is an effective method for introducing genes into maize. In this chapter, we describe a detailed protocol for genetic transformation of the maize genotype Hi II. Our starting plant material is immature embryos cocultivated with an Agrobacterium strain carrying a standard binary vector. In addition to step-by-step laboratory transformation proced...
متن کاملGenetic Diversity in Maize (Zea mays L.) Inbred Lines
Thirty yellow inbred lines of normal maize were evaluated for thirteen parameters at the experimental field of Hajee Mohammad Danesh Science and Technology University during 2010-11 to study the genetic divergence using multivariate analysis. The thirty inbreds fell into six distinct clusters. The intra-cluster distances in all the six clusters were more or less low, indicating that the genotyp...
متن کاملAssociation Mapping for Enhancing Maize (Zea mays L.) Genetic Improvement
Association mapping through linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis is a powerful tool for the dissection of complex agronomic traits and for the identifi cation of alleles that can contribute to the enhancement of a target trait. With the developments of high throughput genotyping techniques and advanced statistical approaches as well as the assembling and characterization of multiple association...
