General and Specific Combining Ability Studies for Leaf Area (LA) in some Maize Inbreed Lines (Zea mays L.) in Agroecological Conditions in Kosova

open access: yesNotulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 2008
In the methods of diallel crossing which are based on Hayman, (1954), Jinks,(1954), Griffing, (1956), Mather and Jinks, (1971), can produce values of hybrid combination and methods of heritage for a particular trait of selection. The use of heterosise in

The genetic basis of inheritance of plant height in maize [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Sciences (Belgrade), 2015
The aim of this study, on the grounds of direct and reciprocal diallel crossing of five inbred lines of maize, was to determine: variability, heterosis, combining ability and genetic basis of plant height inheritance. The experiment was based on

Composite interval mapping and genomic prediction of nut quality traits in American and American–European interspecific hybrid hazelnuts

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract The native, perennial shrub American hazelnut (Corylus americana) is cultivated in the US Midwest for its significant ecological benefits, as well as its high‐value nut crop. Genetic improvement of perennial crops involves long‐term breeding efforts, and benefits from the use of genetic data in selection to reduce breeding cycle time.

Optimizing population simulations to accurately parallel empirical data for digital breeding

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract The use of computational and data‐driven approaches to accelerate and optimize breeding programs is becoming common practice among plant breeders. Simulations allow breeders to evaluate potential changes in breeding schemes in a time‐ and cost‐efficient manner.

Diallel crossing among maize populations for resistance to fall armyworm

open access: yesScientia Agricola, 2002
Among the insects infecting the maize (Zea mays L.) crop in Brazil, the fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda Smith, 1797, Lepdoptera: Noctuidae) is considered one of the most important because it causes the highest damage to yield.

Unlocking Kenya’s Pyrethrum Potential: A Breeding Review for a Competitive Future

open access: yesAdvances in Agriculture, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Pyrethrum (Tanacetum cinerariifolium) is a strategically important industrial crop underpinning the world supply of organic pesticides. Despite Kenya’s past dominance in global pyrethrum production, the genetic improvement of the crop has lagged. This has led to having varieties of low yields, variable pyrethrin content, susceptibility to biotic and ...

Improving Taro (Colocasia esculenta [L.] Schott.) Genotypes for Resistance to Taro Leaf Blight Disease in Ghana

open access: yesAdvances in Agriculture, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study explored the variation in taro leaf blight disease (TLBD) in Colocasia esculenta by examining five parent genotypes and their corresponding 20 single‐cross hybrids. A full diallel crossing design was employed and assessed under both naturally occurring field infections and controlled artificial inoculations.
