Gene action for grain protein content in durum wheat

Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2021
The aim of this study was to determine the gene action and combining ability of durum wheat for grain protein content. During the three year period a diallel cross was carried out with five modern parents of durum wheat – ‘Victoria’, ‘Deni’, ‘Superdur’, ‘

Combining Ability of Drought-Tolerant Bread Wheat Genotypes for Agronomic and Physiological Traits

Agronomy, 2022
A combining-ability analysis is key to select desirable parents and progenies with enhanced response to selection under water-limited environments. The objective of this study was to determine combining ability for agronomic and physiological traits ...

Study on combining ability of therapeutic traits in rice grains (Oryza sativa L.)

Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2022
Traditional rice varieties having high flavonoids and anthocyanin traits were hybridized to high-yielding quality cultivars to assess their combining ability. Significant variation was observed among parents and hybrids for the traits studied.

Co-targeting RNA Polymerases IV and V Promotes Efficient De Novo DNA Methylation in Arabidopsis. [PDF]

, 2019
The RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) pathway in plants controls gene expression via cytosine DNA methylation. The ability to manipulate RdDM would shed light on the mechanisms and applications of DNA methylation to control gene expression.

Studies on gene action and combining ability in rice (Oryza sativa. L) hybrids

Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2022
The study was carried out to learn about the nature of gene action and combining ability in rice hybrids for grain yield and its component traits. For this, eight lines were crossed with four testers in an L x T mating design.

Role of cyclic AMP in the control of cell-specific gene expression [PDF]

, 1993
Genes have to be expressed in specific cell types at appropriate times of development dependent on external signals. cAMP signaling occurs in all cells, thus raising the question of how this signal transduction pattern is integrated into mechanisms ...

Generation mean analysis and inbreeding depression in pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.]

Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2016
In the present investigation, nature and magnitude of gene action was analyzed in six generations (P1, P2, F1, F2, BC1 and BC2) for grain yield and its attributing characters in four crosses of pearl millet.

Early Genes and Auxin Action [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 1996
The plant hormone IAA (or auxin) is central to the control of plant growth and development. Processes governed by auxin in concert with other plant growth regulators include development of vascular tissues, formation of lateral and adventitious roots, control of apical dominance, and tropic responses (Went and Thimann, 1937).
