Hormonal Control of Important Agronomic Traits

, 2018
One of the goals of plant science is to improve agricultural sustainability, increasing yield, food diversity, and nutrition, while minimizing the negative impact on our environment. In response to internal and external cues, plant hormones control various aspects of plant growth and development.

Heritability of the Main Agronomic Traits of Taro [PDF]

Crop Science, 2006
The increase of production of an important root crop such as taro [Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott, Araceae] implies the development of new varieties through an efficient breeding scheme. The breeding of new taro cultivars is a complex process which requires experience, adequate genetic resources, and reliable data about inheritance of crucial ...

Quantitative trait loci for agronomic traits in soybean

Plant Breeding, 2007
AbstractThere continues to be improvement in seed yields of soybean by conventional breeding, but molecular techniques may provide faster genetic gains. The objective of this study was to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with the agronomic traits seed yield, lodging, plant height, seed filling period and plant maturity in soybean.

Heterosis of Agronomic Traits in Alfalfa

Crop Science, 2002
Increasing forage yields remains a top priority of most alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) breeding programs. Studies of crosses between dormant to moderately dormant M. sativa subsp. sativa and M. sativa subsp. falcata suggest a heterotic pattern for yield exists between the two subspecies.

QTL for Agronomic Traits in Maize Production

2009
The utilization of molecular markers and genomics platforms offers unprecedented opportunities to discover, select, and clone the quantitative trait loci (QTL) that govern grain yield and other agronomic traits in maize. The dissection of the genetic basis of quantitative traits into their single components provides direct access to valuable genetic ...

AGRONOMIC TRAITS OF SOILLESS GROWN BELL PEPPER

Acta Horticulturae, 2012
Pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) is the second most common crop grown by hydroponics in Croatia. The aim of this research was to determine the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of five cultivars, grown on rockwool. Depending on the cultivar, from 85 to 132.5 marketable fruits, weighing from 110 to 128 g were picked per m2.

Agronomic Field Trait Phenomics

2015
Recent advances in high-throughput phenotyping allow breeders to collect phenotypic data with a level of accuracy that was impossible to achieve previously. However, many of these technologies depend on leveraging-controlled environments like green houses or growth chambers. While these controlled phenotypes can have strategic value for gene discovery,

Genetic Variation in Agronomic Traits

2002
Wild emmer wheat in Israel varies not only in genetic polymorphisms of allozymes and DNA markers, but also in quantitative traits of agronomic importance (Nevo 1983a, 1986a, 1989a, 1995, 2001b; Nevo et al. 1984b; Peng et al. 2000c, 2001). These include agronomic traits, disease resistance, protein content, ecological tolerances to drought, salt ...

AGRONOMIC TRAITS OF CABBAGE CULTIVARS FOR SAUERKRAUT PRODUCTION

Acta Horticulturae, 2007
To identify white cabbage cultivars of suitable agronomic and physical traits for sauerkraut production, 7 domestic varieties and populations as well as 16 imported hybrid cultivars (cvs) were tested in 2001 and 2002 at the family farm. Field trials were laid out according to the randomized block scheme with four replications (plot area 10.4 m2 ...
