Comparative analysis of fertility restoration genes for WA, Y, and DA cytoplasmic male sterility in rice [PDF]

, 2014
Rice chromosome single segment substitution line (SSSL) W23-19-06-06-11 with the genotype Rf3Rf3/Rf4Rf4, a strong restorer line for wild-abortive (WA) cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS), was recently identified from the SSSL library.

Heritability, Correlation and Path Analysis among Yield and Yield Attributing Traits for Drought Tolerance in an Interspecific Cross Derived from <i>Oryza sativa x O. glaberrima </i>Introgression Line under Contrasting Moisture Regimes

Notulae Scientia Biologicae, 2014
Drought is a major constraint for rainfed lowland and upland rice productivity throughout world. A backcross inbred population derived from ‘Swarna’ and ‘WAB450-I-B-P-157-2-1’ (Oryza sativa L. x O.

Spikelet fertility improvement of Boro advanced line (CN6) through supplemented nutrient management

Research in Agriculture Livestock and Fisheries, 2020
The experiment was conducted in the Boro season of 2016-17, at Bangladesh Rice Research Institute (BRRI) farm under the Agro Ecological Zone (AEZ 28) Modhupur Tract. CN6 is a high spikelet bearing early maturing advanced line of rice but low in spikelet fertility. Supplemented nutrient management was examined to increase its spikelet fertility.

Low‐Dose Chlorothalonil Induces Testicular Injury Through Disruption of Steroidogenic Signaling in Adult Male Mice

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chlorothalonil (CHL) is a widely used organochlorine fungicide frequently detected in environmental and food matrices. Although increasing evidence indicates adverse effects in nontarget species, the mechanisms underlying CHL‐induced male reproductive toxicity remain incompletely understood.

Exploring Spikelet Fertility and HSP70 Expression as Indicators of High Temperature Tolerance in Rice

Discover Plants
Abstract The expression patterns of potential biomarkers can aid in developing thermotolerant rice varieties, addressing food security challenges in times of climate change. This study validated the heat tolerance coefficient and spikelet fertility in rice by linking them to the expression pattern of HSP70. Relative membrane permeability (RMP),

Nutritional and sensory characteristics of local and hybrid East African Highland cooking bananas: Implications for breeding programs

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bananas (Musa species) are an important staple food and cash crop in many parts of the world. The East African Highland cooking bananas form the backbone of food security for millions of Ugandans. The demand for high quality cooking bananas is thus closely linked to their sensory characteristics (which drive consumer preference) and

Spikelet proteomic response to combined water deficit and heat stress in rice (Oryza sativa cv. N22) [PDF]

, 2011
In future climates, rice crops will be frequently exposed to water deficit and heat stress at the most sensitive flowering stage, causing spikelet sterility and yield losses.

Identification of Restorers and Maintainers for Development of Rice Hybrids using WA and Kalinga sources of CMS lines [PDF]

Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2014
Three cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) lines of rice having wild abortive (WA) and Kalinga cytoplasmic male sterility source were crossed with seven testers to identify their restorer/maintainer nature.

Synergistic effects of maize defoliation and common bean relay cropping in Western Ethiopia

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Maize defoliation is practiced to enhance crop management by improving light penetration, nutrient allocation, controlling weeds, and providing supplementary feeds for livestock. A rapid decline in soil fertility and low crop yields associated with maize‐based monocropping has prompted the recent introduction of maize common bean ...
