Common beans are an important nutritious food crop to many people in developing countries. Inadequate soil-P is one of the major constraints high bean seed yield productivity. Information about genetic effects that control inheritance root traits common grown under low conditions scarce, and a challenge for enhancement. This study was therefore implemented determine gene action tolerance soil-P...

Characterization and conservation of germplasm is a critical step toward the genetic improvement crop. This study assessed variation in 257 common bean genotypes which included 207 accessions obtained National Gene Bank Kenya, 33 from Kenya Agricultural Livestock Research Organization (KALRO), 13 landraces collected farmers’ fields four commercial varieties for various agronomic traits. T...

The consumption of products made from Tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum (L.) Gaertn.) has increased in recent years in Japan. Increased consumer demand has led to recognition of the need for early varieties of this crop with high and stable yields. In order to accomplish this, more information is needed on the genetic mechanisms affecting earliness and yield. We conducted genetic analysis ...

the mode of agronomic traits inheritance was investigated in safflower (carthamus tinctorius l.) in drought stress as a new report. five generation including p1, p2, f1, f2 and f3 that derived from the cross of il.111 (drought sensitive) ×mex.22-191 (drought tolerance) were used in a randomized complete block design with two replications. generation mean analysis was used to estimate genetic pa...

seven maize inbred lines were crossed in a complete diallel cross design at the seed and plant improvement institute, karaj, iran, during the 2006 growing season. the parents and 42 f1 hybrids were grown in the research field of islamic azad university of firoozabad, firoozabad, iran, using a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications, during the 2007 growing season. the ha...
