Relationship between morpho-agronomic traits in tomato hybrids

Genotypic stabilization of agronomic traits in Panicum maximum (Jacq.) hybrids

The objective of this study was to evaluate the genotypic stability of agronomic traits in hybrids of Panicum maximum. Hybrids originating from the crosses between two sexual parents and cultivars Mombasa and Tanzania were evaluated in an incomplete-block design. Evaluated traits were total dry matter, leaf dry matter, stem dry matter, percentage of leaves, and leaf:stem ratio. These traits wer...

Genetic and Morpho-Agronomic Evaluation of New Tomato Breeding Lines Resistant to Bacterial Speck (Pseudomonas Syringae pv. Tomato)

A breeding program was initiated at the Research Institute of Vegetable Crops, Skierniewice, Poland to select new tomato lines resistant to bacterial speck (Psedomonas syringae pv. tomato (PST) and suitable for field growing. Two tomato cultivars with good agronomic characteristics Luban and Rumba were crossed with resistant to PST ‘Ontario 7710’. Then backcross and pedigree breeding procedures...

Use of morpho-agronomic traits and DNA profiling for classification of genetic diversity in papaya.

We examined the genetic diversity of papaya (Carica papaya) based on morpho-agronomic and molecular data. Twenty-seven genotypes grown in Brazil were analyzed with 11 AFLP primer combinations, 23 ISSR markers, 22 qualitative, and 30 quantitative descriptors. For the joint analyses, we used the Gower algorithm (Joint Gower) and the average value of the individual dissimilarity matrix for each ty...

Performance of sage (Salvia officinalis L.) for morpho-agronomic and chemical traits in different agro-ecologies of Ethiopia

This experiment was conducted with the objective of evaluating the performance sage (Salvia officinalis L.) in different agroecology of Ethiopia for morpho-agronomic and chemical traits at Wondo genet, Hawassa, Qoqa and Holleta for two years from 2011/2012 to 2012/2013 cropping seasons. Data on plant height, branch number/plant, fresh leaf weight/plant, fresh stem weight/plant, above ground bio...
