Book Genetic Evaluation of Zea Mays Accessions for Grain and Fodder Yield

Download or read book Genetic Evaluation of Zea Mays Accessions for Grain and Fodder Yield written by Qurban Ali and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2015-06-10 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present study was carried out in the experimental area of the Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad Pakistan to evaluate the maize accessions for grain and fodder yield. Eighty maize accessions were collected from the Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, University of Agriculture Faisalabad, National Agriculture Research Centre, Islamabad and Maize and Millet Research Institute Sahiwal, Pakistan. The inbred lines B-316, F-96, B-11, Sh-139 and EV-340, Pop/209, E-322, B-336 and EV1097Q showed higher GCA for most of grain, fodder and quality traits which indicated that these lines may be used for the development of synthetic varieties. The F1 hybrids B-11 x E-322, EV-1097 x Pop/209, B-327 x F-96, B-336 x B-316, EV-1097 x E-322, B-327 x E-340, Sh-139 x Pop/209, EV-1097 x EV-340, EV-1097 x B-316, Raka-poshi x Pop/209, B-336 x EV-347, B-336 x Pop/209, EV-1097 x Pop/209, B-316 x E-340, Raka-poshi x F-96, B-327 x Pop/209 showed higher SCA for most of grain, fodder and quality traits which indicated that these lines may be used in future for the development of hybrids and heterosis breeding program."

Book Qtl Analysis and Evaluation of Seed Production Environment for Maize  Zea Mays L   Seedling Emergence and Characterization of Sugary1 Alleles for Seed Composition  Seedling Emergence  and ISA1 Activity

Download or read book Qtl Analysis and Evaluation of Seed Production Environment for Maize Zea Mays L Seedling Emergence and Characterization of Sugary1 Alleles for Seed Composition Seedling Emergence and ISA1 Activity written by and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maize ( Zea mays ssp. mays) was domesticated from a lowland race of teosinte (Zea mays ssp. parviglumis) in a single domestication event approximately 9,000 years ago in central Mexico. Through the process of domestication, maize experienced a genetic bottleneck and selection that caused a loss of allelic variation across the whole genome and at potentially important loci in modern maize. Seedling emergence is one trait associated with a domestication syndrome, however, its underlying genetic structure and importance during domestication of maize is unknown. Analysis of the nucleotide diversity of genes in the starch synthesis pathway has identified a signature of selection at sugary1 (su1) indicating that the locus was putatively important for the domestication of maize. At least five naturally occurring alleles at the su1 locus have been identified. The first research chapter uses two maize by teosinte NIL populations (W22 and B73) to evaluate seedling emergence from multiple seed production environments. Analysis of both populations identified significant seed production and genotype by seed production effects for seedling emergence traits. Use of multiple seed production environments is important for the evaluation of seedling emergence traits and in studies to identify their genetic structure. Further research is necessary to confirm the identified QTL as loci putatively important for seedling emergence during maize domestication. The second research chapter characterized five naturally occurring su1 mutant alleles for seedling emergence, field traits, mature kernel composition, and ISA1 enzyme activity. These five alleles were backcrossed to A619 and A632, two modern maize inbred lines. The su1 mutant lines were grown in three seed production environments to evaluate seedling emergence, field traits, and mature kernel composition. Immature kernels were used for analysis of starch composition and enzymatic activity. Significant differences were identified among the su1 mutant lines for the evaluated germination and emergence traits. Differences were observed in the presence of ISA1 enzyme; however, no functional ISA1 enzyme activity was observed. Further research is necessary to elucidate the differences for appearance, starch composition, and seed germination and emergence traits in lines with no functional ISA1 enzyme activity.

Book Genetic Characterization of Northern Flints and Flours Maize  Zea Mays L  Spp  Mays  with Isozyme  SSR  and Morphological Markers

Download or read book Genetic Characterization of Northern Flints and Flours Maize Zea Mays L Spp Mays with Isozyme SSR and Morphological Markers written by William Gerardo González Ugalde and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phenetic analyses of joint morphological, isozyme, SSR data sets yielded results more congruent with the history of these races and previous studies. Distributional patterns of isozyme and SSR alleles, results of independent phenetic analyses of morphology, isozymes, and SSRs and joint analyses support Galinat and Gunnerson's (1963) hypothesis that NF originated from northwestern Mexico maize that diffused through the southwestern US to the northeastern US.
