Effect of replications on measuring wheat plant height

Canadian Journal of Plant Science, 1995
Plant height is an important selection criterion in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) breeding programs that are conducted in the ecogeographically diverse Great Plains. Despite this diversity, measuring plant height on only two replications provided a very accurate estimate of the cultivar mean in each trial and of the detectable difference between two ...

Height to Node Ratio of Jute Plants

Nature, 1950
IN an earlier communication1, it was pointed out that, at the fruiting stage, the ratio of the height to the number of nodes of the two varieties of mung (Phaseolus aureus Roxb. Syn., Phaseolus radiatus Linn.) plants, sown at different times of the year, lies always between 2.2 and 2.9, and that the total height and the number of nodes of the two ...

Association mapping of dynamic developmental plant height in common wheat

Planta, 2011
Drought as a major abiotic stress often occurs from stem elongation to the grain filling stage of wheat in northern China. Plant height (PH) is a suitable trait to model the dissection of drought tolerance. The purposes of the present study were to validate molecular markers for PH developmental behavior and identify elite alleles of molecular markers.

Interspecific allometries of critical buckling height and actual plant height

American Journal of Botany, 1994
Size‐dependent variations in the critical buckling height Hcrit and actual height H of plants were determined for a total of 111 species with self‐supporting stems ranging in diameter between 0.03 cm ≤ D ≤ 3.0m. For each species, experimentally determined values for the physical properties of stems (Young's elastic modulus and bulk tissue density) were

Genetic control of plant height in European winter wheat cultivars

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2015
Plant height variation in European winter wheat cultivars is mainly controlled by the Rht - D1 and Rht - B1 semi-dwarfing genes, but also by other medium- or small-effect QTL and potentially epistatic QTL enabling fine adjustments of plant height. Plant height is an important goal in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) breeding as it affects crop performance ...

Inheritance of plant height, tiller number per plant, spike height and 1000-kernel weight in a 8×8 diallel cross population of bread wheat

Cereal Research Communications, 2006
The inheritance of plant height, tiller number per plant, spike height and 1000-kernel weight was studied using a Jinks-Hayman diallel analysis in a 8×8 wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) cross population with the following bread wheat cultivars: Cumhuriyet (1), Kasifbey (2), Ziyabey (3), Marmara (4), Basribey (5), Malabadi (6), Yuregir (7) and Seri-82 (8).

QTL mapping analysis of plant height and ear height of maize (Zea mays L.).

Genetika, 2006
Genetic map containing 103 microsatellite loci obtained on 200 F2 plants derived from the cross R15 x 478 was used for quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping in maize. QTL were characterized in a population of 200 F2:4 lines, derived from selfing the F2 plants, and were evaluated with two replications in two environments.

Effects of Plant Density on Frequency Distributions of Plant Height in Chenopodium album Stands: Analysis Based on Continuous Monitoring of Height-growth of Individual Plants

Annals of Botany, 1995
Height-growth of individual plants of Chenopodium album in even-aged monospecific stands with initial densities of 400, 800, and 3600 plants m-2 was followed from emergence to fruit maturation to elucidate the factors responsible for size hierarchy formation.

Plant height and height of the main ear in maize (Zea mays L.) at different locations and different plant densities

Acta Agronomica Hungarica, 2002
The plant height and the height of the main ear were studied over two years in twelve single cross maize hybrids sown at three different plant densities (45, 65 and 85 thousand plants/ha) at five locations in Hungary (Keszthely, Gönc, Gyöngyös, Sopronhorpács, Martonvásár).
