Subject:
heterosis; alfalfa; crop yield; genetic markers; hybrids; amplified fragment length polymorphism; Medicago sativa subsp. falcata; genetic distance; dry matter accumulation; genotype; genetic polymorphism; mathematical models; regrowth; forage quality; statistical analysis; DNA fragmentation; chromosome morphology; agronomic traits; plant morphology; specific combining ability
Abstract:
... Biomass yield heterosis has been shown to exist between Medicago sativasubsp. sativa and Medica gosativa subsp. falcata. The objective of this study was to gain a better understanding of what morphological and genetic factors were most highly correlated with total biomass yield heterosis. We calculated genetic distances among nine sativa and five falcate genotypes based on amplified fragment lengt ...

4. Morphological variation of Medicago sativa subsp. falcata genotypes and their hybrid progeny

Author:
Riday, H.; Brummer, E.C.

Subject:
germplasm; plant growth; plant development; heterosis; Medicago sativa subsp. falcata; hybridization; alfalfa; agronomic traits; crop yield; genotype; plant morphology
Abstract:
... Semi-hybrid alfalfa cultivars offer the possibility of capturing non-additive genetic variation. Medicago sativa subsp. falcata and subsp. sativa have been shown to form a heterotic pattern for biomass yield. Objectives of this study were to examine morphological variation in a broad range of falcata germplasm and to determine how falcata morphological variation per se is related to the performanc ...

5. Genetic divergence in parental genotypes and its relation with heterosis, F₁ performance and general combining ability (GCA) in opium poppy (Papaver somniferum L.)

Author:

Subject:
Papaver somniferum; genotype; genetic variation; heterosis; general combining ability; genetic distance; hybrids; opium alkaloids; medicinal properties; crop yield; plant morphology; height; diameter; seed productivity; pods
Abstract:
... Genetic divergence in 110 population (20 parents and 90 F₁ hybrids) of opium poppy was studied by multivariate analysis. All the entries were grouped in 14 clusters. Out of 20 parents, ten were accumulated in one cluster and rest 10 distributed over seven clusters. Estimates of cluster distance showed that maximum intra-cluster distance was in -cluster IX (25.62) followed by cluster I (22.41), V ( ...

6. Heterosis in yield, fiber quality, and photosynthesis of okra leaf oriented hybrid cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.)

Author:
Zhu, Wei; Liu, Kui; Wang, Xue-De

Subject:
heterosis; plant growth; hybrids; lint cotton; Gossypium hirsutum; leaf area index; fiber quality; crop yield; agronomic traits; photosynthesis; plant morphology; leaves
Abstract:
... Leaf shape is an important factor affecting canopy structure, photosynthetic characteristics, and yield. Introducing okra leaf shape is considered an important strategy in cotton heterosis breeding. The objective of the study was to evaluate the heterosis in okra leaf cotton hybrid F₁s, which were developed by crossing two sterile near isolines and three restorer near isolines. A normal leaf check ...

Abstract:
... The collection of Cola nitida in Côte d'Ivoire was previously classified, based on isozyme markers, into three groups named A, B and C, based on isozymic differences. In this study, morphological traits and several yield components as well as genotypic and phenotypic variabilities for vigour were investigated in groups A and B. We found that group A was characterized by a low vigour and high yield ...

Abstract:
... Ovary rescue was employed to create six interspecific hybrids from the cross between Dendranthema morifolium (Ramat.) Kitamura ‘rm20-12' (2n = 54) and its wild diploid relative D. nankingense (Nakai) Tzvel. (2n = 18). The morphology of the hybrids differed from that of either parent. The leaf length and width of all three D. morifolium × D. nankingense hybrids exceeded that of the parents, as did ...
