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

open access: yesInternational 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.

ESTIMATE OF HETEROSIS AND HETEROBELTIOSIS FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF YIELD IN UPLAND COTTON (GOSSYPIUM HIRSUTUM L.)

open access: yesPakistan Journal of Agriculture, Agricultural Engineering and Veterinary Sciences, 2022
The enhancing seed cotton yield per acre of the crop is a prime concern of breeding programmes.   To achieve high degree of heterotic response, it is essential to have knowledge about performance of desirable parents . Therefore, research was undertaken to assess the expression of heterotic effects in cross combination of upland cotton in F1 crosses ...

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

open access: yesCrop 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.

Estimation of Heterosis and Heterobeltiosis of F1 Generation of Bread Wheat Genotypes.

open access: yesKirkuk University Journal For Agricultural Sciences, 2023
This study included 10 genotypes of bread wheat, namely M45, Yakora, Giza168, Sids 12, SK95, Misr2, Giemiza 9, Sahel 1, Sids14, and Silano. The genotypes (parents and their single crosses) were cultivated at the research station of the Department of Field Crops of the College of Agriculture University of Kirkuk.

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

open access: yesInternational 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.
