Chloroplast Genetic Engineering to Improve Agronomic Traits

2004
Major crop losses occur annually as a result of biotic and abiotic stresses. The ability to hyperexpress foreign proteins, single-step multigene engineering, lack of positive effect and gene silencing, vector sequences and pleiotropic effects have resulted in several hundred-fold more tolerance to the environmental stresses via chloroplast genetic ...

Epigenetic variation in maize agronomical traits for breeding and trait improvement

Journal of Genetics and Genomics
Epigenetics-mediated breeding (epibreeding) involves engineering crop traits and stress responses through the targeted manipulation of key epigenetic features to enhance agricultural productivity. While conventional breeding methods raise concerns about reduced genetic diversity, epibreeding propels crop improvement through epigenetic variations that ...

Mapping QTL for agronomic traits in breeding populations

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2012
Detection of quantitative trait loci (QTL) in breeding populations offers the advantage that these QTL are of direct relevance for the improvement of crops via knowledge-based breeding. As phenotypic data are routinely generated in breeding programs and the costs for genotyping are constantly decreasing, it is tempting to exploit this information to ...

Genetic Mapping of Agronomically Important Traits

2002
About 20% of the wheat harvest in the world is estimated to be lost each year due to diseases and pests. Stripe-rust (also called yellow rust), caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici Westend, is considered the most or second-most important pathogen of wheat in six out of nine agroecological regions, as defined by Rajaram et al. (1988).

Quantitative inheritance of some wheat agronomic traits

2011
The objective of this study was to estimate gene effects for some agronomical traits (plant height, fertile tiller number, spike length, spikelet number per spike, peduncle length, flag leaf sheath length and flag leaf area) using six generations (P 1, P 2, F 1, F 2, BC 1 and BC 2) of Basribey x Atilla-12 cross in order to improve some agronomical ...
