Pollen irradiation and variability in plant breeding materials
In a conventional breeding programme, all F1 plants, from homozygous self-fertilizing parents, are identically heterozygous. The F2 is produced, and the character combination selected for, is carried on further into daughter generations. In case the pollen was irradiated before pollination it would be investigated whether genetic changes had taken place which influence the variability in the pr...
متن کاملIndividual and combined (Plus-hybrid) effect of cytoplasmic male sterility and xenia on maize grain yield
Plus-hybrid effect refers to a combined effect of cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) and xenia in maize (Zea mays L.) It could be used in commercial production by growing a mixture of 80% CMS hybrid and 20% of another fertile hybrid. The aim of this research was to examine individual and combined CMS and xenia effects on two hybrids widely grown in Serbia. Sterile and fertile versions of ZP 1 and...
متن کاملXenia in Almonds: Pollen Source Effect on Characteristics of Some Iranian Late-Blooming Almonds and their self-Incompatibility
The objective of this experiment was evaluation of self-compatibility and identification, introduction and selection of late flowering genotypes as cultivars. This experiment was carried out in order to determine the best pollinator for two commercial almond cultivars, 'Shahrood 12' and 'Shahrood 21'. Applied pollinator cultivars were included pollen from 'Shahrood 21', 'Genco', 'Tuno', '5-15' ...
متن کاملIntragenic Recombination in Maize: Pollen Analysis Methods
The ability to stain mature pollen grains for the presence of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) activity permits the quantitation of ADH+ gametophytes at frequencies below 10-6. This resolution allows reversion and genetic fine structure analyses. The rationale of pollen analysis follows Nelson’s prototype studies with waxy. As with the waxy gene, revertant frequencies for seven Adhi-deficient (Adhi-...
متن کاملXenia Effects on Quality of Maize Female Inbred in Production of Hybrid Seeds
In Maize (Zea maize L.), cost of hybrid seed production is directly related to the yield and quality of seed obtained per hectare of female parent. It is also important to consider the effects that a male parent can exert on the development of hybrid seed in the female parent. This effect is known as xenia. The objectives of this study were to evaluate xenia effects on 1) yield as 80K units, 2)...
