Drought Tolerant Index and Heterosis Level of Soybean {<i>Glycine max</i> (L.) Merrill} Genotypes. [PDF]

Scientifica (Cairo)
Drought stress on soybean crops in some areas becomes more severe due to climate change. The objective of this study was to estimate the drought stress tolerant index (STI) and heterosis level of soybean genotypes derived from crosses of Grobogan (G) and Dering 1 (D) varieties.

Genetic Components Derived Parameters and Heterosis in Okra under Saudi Arabia Conditions. [PDF]

Genet Res (Camb)
Four parental genotypes of okra were crossed in complete diallel design to study the direction and extent of relative heterosis and heterobeltiosis for yield and its associated traits for utilization of existing genetic diversity to develop heterotic F1 hybrids in okra.

Predicting zinc‐enhanced maize hybrid performance under stress conditions

Food and Energy Security, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2023., 2023
This study showed that under combined heat and drought stress conditions, performance of Zn‐enhanced hybrids could be predicted, to a certain extent, from the performance of their corresponding inbred lines, and systematically selected for desirable secondary traits correlated with HMDS tolerance during inbred line development.

Hybrid Vigor and Heritability Estimates in Tomato Crosses Involving Solanum lycopersicum × S. pimpinellifolium under Cool Tropical Monsoon Climate

International Journal of Agronomy, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
High humidity is a major constraint to increased tomato fruit production in a cool tropical monsoon climate. However, the genetic variation observed in Solanum pimpinellifolium makes it a good gene donor for breeding tomato cultivars capable of thriving under high humidity.

Grain yield performance of hybrid rice in relation to inbred cultivars in long‐term multi‐environment tests in India

Crop Science, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 1133-1148, May/June 2022., 2022
Abstract We analyzed the yield data of 2,070 rice hybrid F1 genotypes with inbred local cultivars (ILCv) evaluated over 32 yr (from 1988 to 2019) in 2,376 multi‐environment experiments executed at 102 locations in the irrigated ecosystem across India.

Assessment of Genetic Parameters for Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and TSS Content Results in Melon Line Crosses at Five Maturity Stages

International Journal of Agronomy, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Melon breeding is directed at improving the quality of the fruit needed to meet consumers’ demands. The assessment of hybrid melon candidates on important characteristics (vitamin A, vitamin C, and TSS) at five maturity stages is needed to get hybrid melon varieties with good fruit quality and determine the right harvest time.

Exploitation of Hybrid Vigor for Identification of Promising Sorghum F1 Hybrid for High Grain Yield and Resistance to Sorghum Midge

International Journal of Agronomy, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Sorghum is the second most grown cereal crop in Niger. However, sorghum production in the country is dominated by indigenous cultivars with low productivity. Productivity in grain sorghum has been achieved in developing countries around the world using hybrids.
