Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the adaptability, stability, and environmental stratification wheat (Triticum aestivum) grown in 20 environments, state Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. experiments were performed during four crop years, five growing regions, considering distinct environments. In presence genotype x environment (GxE) interaction, additive main effects multiplicativ...

Description: Annual herb, 30-150 cm high, slightly aromatic stems erect, robust, much branching, cylindrical, furrowed, densely leafy. Leaves alternate , with special odor, with broad leaf sheath, lower leaves pinnate, with narrowlyliner lobes; middle and upper leaves 2-3 pinnate, with filiform lobes. Inflorescence dense umbel with numerous rays( to 120 or more) slender in flower, thickened and...

The AMMI and SREG GGE   are among the models that effectively capture the additive and multiplicative components of genotype × environment interaction (GEI) and provide meaningful interpretation of multi-environment trials’ data set in the breeding programs. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of GEI on grain yield of barely advanced lines and exploit the positive GEI effect us...

Ten compounds have been isolated from the unused parts of Ammi visinaga. The isolated compounds were identified as tetracosanoic acid (1), β-sitosterol (2), visnadine (3), khellin (4), β-sitosterol glucoside (5), norkhellol (6), khellol (7), rhamnazin (8), cimifugin (9), and cis-khellactone-3’-β-glucopyranoside (10). The chemical structures of these compounds were elucidated based on spectrosco...

In agricultural experimentation, a large number of genotypes are normally tested over a wide range of environments (locations, years, growing seasons, etc.) and the underlying statistical and genetical theories used to model this system may be rather complicated. The occurrence of the genotype (G) X environment (E) interaction effect further complicates the selection of superior genotypes for a...

The antifungal activity of extracts of Tinospora cordifolia (leaves), Moringa oleifera (bark) and Trachyspermum ammi (seeds) at three concentrations viz., 25, 50, 75% (v/v) were evaluated in vitro by poisoned food technique against Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici and Fusarium solani causing wilt disease on tomato and brinjal plants. The antifungal activity was assessed in terms of percent...

We analyzed productivity data obtained from experiments on grain sorghum conducted in 7 locations of its cultivation in Brazil. A total of 25 hybrids were analyzed, of which 22 were pre-commercial and 3 were cultivars. The Wricke and Purchase et al. methods were highly consistent in identifying individuals with low contributions to genotype x environment interactions. The Lin and Binns method p...

The effectiveness of aqueous extract of seven locally available medicinal plants i.e. Trachyspermum ammi (seeds), Zingiber officinale (rhizome), Tinospora cordifolia (leaves), Cymbopogon citratus (leaves), Moringa oleifera (bark) were evaluated against the plant pathogenic fungus i.e. Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lini (causing wilt in linseed). The plant extracts were screened for their antagonist...
