cotton; quantitative trait loci; germplasm; flowering; hybrids; plant breeding; cultivars; Gossypium hirsutum; phenology; crossing; plant genetic resources; phenotypic variation; branches
Abstract:
... Flowering time has biological and agricultural significance for crops. In Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.), photoperiodic sensitivity is a major obstacle in the utilization of primitive accessions in breeding programs. Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) analysis was conducted in two F₂ populations from the crosses between a day-neutral cultivar Deltapine 61 (DPL61) and two photoperiod sensitive G ...

Fusarium wilt; branches; crossing; dominant genes; flowering; general combining ability; genotype; inheritance (genetics); pedigree; pigeon peas; pods; seeds; specific combining ability; wilting; Malawi
Abstract:
... Fusarium wilt is the main pigeonpea production constraint in Malawi. The purpose of the study was to understand the nature and mechanism of inheritance of F. wilt resistance, yield and secondary traits in pigeonpea. 48 crosses were generated in a 12 lines × 4 testers mating scheme. Some F1 plants were selfed for segregation analysis for inheritance pattern of resistance, while others were evaluate ...

Abstract:
... Transformation of Kalanchoë blossfeldiana ‘Molly’ using the naturally occurring bacterium Agrobacterium rhizogenes is a non-GMO strategy to breed compact plants. In the present study, crosses resembling a commercial breeding strategy were made to determine if the improved ornamental quality observed in the T1 generation was inherited to the offspring. F1 lines were produced by crossing the commerc ...

Abstract:
... The analysis of genetic correlations between fiber length (Len), strength (Str), micronaire, and 12 other traits was conducted using the additive (A)-dominance (D) genetic model, which considers genotype × environment interaction effects, in intraspecific upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) hybrids to effectively improve the quality of cotton cultivars in high planting density cases. Decision-ma ...

Abstract:
... To better understand the molecular mechanisms that regulate inflorescence and flower architecture, we characterized the rice panicle and spikelet degeneration (psd) mutant, which exhibited small panicles with a reduced number of primary and secondary branches. The psd mutant had few spikelets per panicle, and they were deformed and could not form seeds. The psd mutant had a unique panicle organiza ...

Abstract:
... The quality and yield of rice are influenced by vascular bundles and highly significant differences about size and number of vascular bundles can be found among rice subspecies. In this study, we divided a series of recombinant inbred lines, which were derived from a cross between the indica variety ‘Luhui 99’ and the japonica variety ‘Shennong 265’ into pre-indica, intermediate and pre-japonica g ...
