Gametophytic cross-incompatibility in maize: resequencing the Ga1 locus
Maize is an important staple crop for many countries. Culture dictates maize use, processing, and incorporation into foods. The crop has a rich history of domestication and improvement. With its relative ease of genetic manipulation, maize is considered a model crop for plant genetic experimentation. Recent biotechnological advances, as well as the completed B73 reference genome sequence, have ...
متن کاملSegregation analyses of partial self-incompatibility in self and cross progeny of Solanum carolinense reveal a leaky S-allele.
Natural populations of self-incompatible species often exhibit marked phenotypic variation among individuals in the strength of self-incompatibility (SI). In previous studies, we found that the strength of the SI response in Solanum carolinense, a weedy invasive with RNase-mediated SI, is a plastic trait. Selfing can be particularly important for weeds and other successional species that typica...
متن کاملYield and nitrogen leaching in maize field under different nitrogen rates and partial root drying irrigation
Irrigation water is limiting for crop production in arid and semi-arid areas. Furthermore, excess nitrogen (N) application is a source of groundwater contamination. Partial root drying irrigation (PRD) can be used as water saving technique and a controlling measure of groundwater N contamination. The objectives of this investigation were to evaluate the effect of ordinary furrow irrigation (OFI...
متن کاملOppositional Alleles Causing Cross-Incompatibility in Trifolium Repens.
N SEVERAL species in which cross-incompatibility is determined by I multiple oppositional alleles, different types of tests have shown that these series of alleles are very extensive. The test yielding the most decisive results and involving the fewest crosses consists of making all possible reciprocal combinations (that is, diallel crosses) between plants which have one S factor in common. Thi...
متن کاملAflatoxin Accumulation in a Maize Diallel Cross
Aflatoxins, produced by the fungus Aspergillus flavus, occur naturally in maize. Contamination of maize grain with aflatoxin is a major food and feed safety problem and greatly reduces the value of the grain. Plant resistance is generally considered a highly desirable approach to reduction or elimination of aflatoxin in maize grain. In this investigation, a diallel cross was produced by crossin...
