In order to evaluate the relationship between morphological characters in rice lines two populations at F3 generation were grown in research field of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resource University, Sari, Iran, during 2012. Statistical analysis on important agronomic traits showed that maximum standard deviation belonged to total grain number followed by filled grains per panicle and grai...

Combining ability effects were estimated for different agronomic characters in line × tester crossing program comprising 21 hybrids produced by crossing 7 lines and 3 testers. Parents and hybrids differed significantly for general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) effects, respectively. The variance due to GCA and SCA showed that gene action was predominantly additive...

Plants must respond to environmental cues and schedule their development in order to react to periods of abiotic stress and commit fully to growth and reproduction under favorable conditions. This study was initiated to identify SNP markers for characters expressed from the seedling stage to plant maturity in spring and winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes adapted to western Canada. Th...

Yardlong bean pod used as vegetable in many countries. has agronomic character variability such length, immature and seed colour. The colour are green, whitish green red. Fagiola variety red pod, while "Aura Hijau" pod. aim of research was to evaluate characters F3 progenies. Artificial crossing made between "Fagiola" female parent male produce F1. F1 were self-pollinated F2. Then F2 obtain Pro...

Genetic variability is an indicator for a plant breeder to proceed further. Six F3:4 derived inter-specific Brassica populations along with three checks were evaluated for genetic variability for agronomic characters at NWFP Agricultural University, during 20052006. Highly significant (P < 0.05) genetic variations were recorded for plant height. Maximum number of pods main receme (94) was obser...
