Wide variation for morphological traits exists in Brassica rapa and the genetic basis of this morphological variation is largely unknown. Here is a report on quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis of flowering time, seed and pod traits, growth-related traits, leaf morphology, and turnip formation in B. rapa using multiple populations. The populations resulted from crosses between the following ...

Tools like doubled haploids, marker-assisted backcrossing, and genetic engineering allow to add a small In addition to genetic distances (GDs) based on molecular markers, number of genes to a protected variety and apply for morphological traits and heterosis have been proposed as possible tools to assess the genetic conformity between putative essentially PVP for this new variety. In addition, ...

Genetic variability was studied for rhizome yield and its contributing characters among twenty seven turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) genotypes. The analysis of variation revealed significant differences the genotypes all traits viz., plant height, number tillers, primary rhizomes per plant, secondary length mother rhizome, girth weight rhizome. Turmeric variety Shobha recorded highest fresh which o...

The COVID19 pandemic has inflicted unprecedented global unrest to every sector of mankind. Likewise, the research and development had its own share disturbances due complete lockdown condition for a year. During this period, minimum or no activities could be carried out in lemongrass trial treatments were left uncared Comparative analyses seventeen understand impact eight agro-economic traits. ...

UNLABELLED Nemo is an individual-based, genetically explicit and stochastic population computer program for the simulation of population genetics and life-history trait evolution in a metapopulation context. It comes as both a C++ programming framework and an executable program file. Its object-oriented programming design gives it the flexibility and extensibility needed to implement a large va...

Artificial selection of cattle has been practiced for centuries using a variety of methods and tools. Early selection was based on visual observations that eventually lead to the development of breeds. In efforts to improve production, selection was practiced on measured phenotypic traits with limited success depending on the heritability of the trait. The next big breakthrough in selection too...

Different personality traits respond differently to unfavourable life situations. Unemployment can have several negative social, economic, and domestic consequences. Many people use social media for a variety of reasons. The aim this study is examine the way different Facebook in period unemployment. Data was obtained from 3,002 unemployed respondents Nigeria. used regression model analyse data...
