Plant height, which shows dynamic development and heterosis, is a major trait affecting plant architecture and has an indirect influence on economic yield related to biological yield in cotton. In the present study, we carried out dynamic analysis for plant height and its heterosis by quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping at multiple developmental stages using two recombinant inbred lines (RILs...

which permits use and distribution in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited, the use is non-commercial and no modifications or adaptations are made. Abstract 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 ...

In the current experiment, 256 test treatments and four control (checks) were assessed in an augmented block design for studying yield yield-attributing traits. F3 population of chilli was components during kharif year 2018-19. The analysis variance showed a significant mean sum squares all characters different sources variation. number genotypes that exceeded best check 47 (plant height), 45 (...

introduction bean (vicia faba l.) has the great old history of crop cultivation to date would be pushed back to a fairly long day plant, resistant to frost and cool season crop and up to 5 degrees celsius tolerated. bean prefers wet and cold conditions. excessive heat may cause fetal growth problems, loss and reduce the number of seeds per pod bean flowers to the growth of plant and fruit set o...

chlormequat (cycocel or ccc), the plant growth retardant, was evaluated for its ability to control plant height in brassica oleracea cultivar ‘kamome white’ and ‘nagoya red’. different concentrations of ccc (0, 500, 1000 and 1500 mg/l) were sprayed and drenched on plants 40 days after transplanting. data were recorded the 60 and 90 days after transplanting. the 1500 mg/l of ccc resulted in abou...

Papaya propagation from seeds has a major problem, namely seed germination takes relatively long time. Experiments to determine the effect of gibberellin and cow bio urine concentrations on growth papaya seedlings were carried out at Main Horticultural Seed Center Agriculture Livestock Service Office Buleleng Regency with an altitude ± 200 m above sea level. The experiment used factorial random...

In plants, investment in height improves access to light, but incurs costs in construction and maintenance of the stem. Because the benefits of plant height depend on which other height strategies are present, competition for light can usefully be framed as a game-theoretic problem. The vertical structure of the world’s vegetation, which is inefficient for plant growth, can then be understood a...

Barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crus-galli) biotypes, resistant to different herbicides, have been reported. An experiment was conducted to compare the growth characteristics of various barnyardgrass biotypes, (i.e., propanil-resistant from Poinsett County, Ark., quinclorac-resistant from Louisiana., quinclorac/propanil-resistant barnyardgrass from Craighead County, Ark., and susceptible barnyardgra...

Vertical growth of plants is a dynamic process that is influenced by genetic and environmental factors and has a pronounced effect on overall plant architecture and biomass composition. We have performed six controlled growth trials of an interspecific Setaria italica x Setaria viridis recombinant inbred line population to assess how the genetic architecture of plant height is influenced by dev...
