Haploid induction and its application in maize breeding [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Breeding, 2021
Maize is a heterosis-utilizing crop species, and the application of maize hybrids has significantly improved total maize yields worldwide. Breeding pure lines is the most important part of heterosis utilization. The double haploid (DH) breeding technology is the approach rising recently in breeding pure lines; compared to the conventional recurrent ...

Nitrogen fixation in maize: breeding opportunities

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2021
Maize (Zea mays L.) is a highly versatile crop with huge demand of nitrogen (N) for its growth and development. N is the most essential macronutrient for crop production. Despite being the highest abundant element in the atmosphere (~ 78%), it is scarcely available for plant growth. To fulfil the N demand, commercial agriculture is largely dependent on

Genome optimization for improvement of maize breeding

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2019
We propose a new model to improve maize breeding that incorporates doubled haploid production, genomic selection, and genome optimization. Breeding 4.0 has been considered the next era of plant breeding. It is clear that the Breeding 4.0 era for maize will feature the integration of multi-disciplinary technologies including genomics and phenomics, gene

Maize breeding in Croatia

2003
In Croatia today, maize is grown on about 400 000 ha yearly. It was first time introduced to today's Croatia during the second half of XVIth century. The first significant maize breeding success at the territory of Croatia was the open pollinated dent variety Rumski Zlatni Zuban (Ruma's Golden Dent Variety).

Improvement of effectiveness in maize breeding

Acta Agronomica Hungarica, 2006
Plant regeneration via tissue culture is becoming increasingly more common in monocots such as maize (Zea mays L.). Pollen (gametophytic) selection for resistance to aflatoxin in maize can greatly facilitate recurrent selection and the screening of germplasm for resistance at much less cost and in a shorter time than field testing. In vivo and in vitro

Association mapping in an elite maize breeding population

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2011
Association mapping (AM) is a powerful approach to dissect the genetic architecture of quantitative traits. The main goal of our study was to empirically compare several statistical methods of AM using data of an elite maize breeding program with respect to QTL detection power and possibility to correct for population stratification.

Maize breeding and biotechnology

2003
Plant breeding is the art and the science of improving the heredity of plants for the benefit of humankind. Plant breeding as the science started with Mendel (1865) or with the rediscovery of his principles. But, men consciously have been molding the phenotype of hundreds plant species for 10000 years.
