Effect of technique and darkness on the success of meristem micrografting of Picea abies [PDF]
, 1994 The possibility of micrografting in vitro shoot meristems of #Picea abies# were investigated on a 18 year-old Norway spruce clone. The rates of success were shown to be greatly influenced by the grafting technique used and by light, with a positive ...

Combining ability analysis for yield and quality traits in single cross hybrids of quality protein maize (Zea mays L.) using diallel mating design [PDF]
, 2017 Forty-five single-cross hybrids developed (in rabi 2014) from ten inbred lines of quality protein maize through diallel mating design along with four checks viz., Pratap QPM Hybrid- 1, Vivek QPM- 9, HQPM- 1 and HQPM-5 were evaluated in randomized block ...

Impact of Fusarium sp. severity and agronomic traits on popcorn popping expansion
Agronomy Journal, Volume 117, Issue 5, September/October 2025.Abstract The study of relationships between traits is essential for understanding the behavior of variables of interest and advancing breeding programs. In popcorn (Zea mays L. var. everta (Sturtev) L.H. Bailey), popping expansion (PE) is considered the primary quality trait, but knowledge about the impact of agronomic traits and Fusarium spp ...

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2018 Crop establishment in carrot (Daucus carota L.) is limited by slow seedling growth and delayed canopy closure, resulting in high management costs for weed control. Varieties with improved growth habit (i.e., larger canopy and increased shoot biomass) may

Diallel designs, analyses, and reference populations [PDF]
Heredity, 1985 Some issues which evidently remain as areas of contention in diallel analysis are reviewed. In the estimation of genetic variance components for an ancestral reference population in equilibrium, analysis should be applied to F1 data only, and proceed as for a random effects model. No meaningful reference population is constituted by the parental sample

Phenomic Prediction Can Be Improved by Optimization of NIRS Preprocessing
Plant Breeding, Volume 144, Issue 4, Page 454-469, August 2025.ABSTRACT In recent years, phenomic prediction has emerged as a new method in plant breeding that has been shown to have great potential. However, there are still many open questions regarding its practical application. For example, in the field of spectroscopy, it is standard practice to optimize the preprocessing of spectra, which so far has only been
