AGRONOMIC TRAITS OF SOILLESS GROWN BELL PEPPER
Acta Horticulturae, 2012Pepper (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.

Epigenetic variation in maize agronomical traits for breeding and trait improvement
Journal of Genetics and GenomicsEpigenetics-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, 2012Detection 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 ...

Chloroplast Genetic Engineering to Improve Agronomic Traits
2004Major 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 ...

Genetic Mapping of Agronomically Important Traits
2002About 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
2011The 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 ...
