Book excerpt: Analysis of a 6-variety diallel revealed that general and specific combinig abilities were highly significant for stomatal density and leaf-blade area. Interactions of genotypes x location were also highly significant for both characters. For stomatal density, overdominance was indicated and one gene (or one block of genes) was involved; heritability estimate was 51 percent. For leaf-blade area, again overdominance was indicated and at least one gene controlled that trait; estimate of heritability was 18 percent. Regression coefficient of Wr on Vr of both characters deviated slighly from unity which could be due to epistasis or correlated gene distribution, or both. Dominace order of the parents was ks 9, Redlan, Combine kafir 60, KS 18, ks 24, and Martin for stomatal density and KS 9, Martin, Redlan, KS 18, KS 24, and Combine Kafir 60 for leaf-blade area. The significant interaction of gea x location and the highly significant interaction of sca x location for stomatal density and the highly significant interaction of sca x location for leaf-blade area imply that the breeding program attempting to improve these characters should tend toward producing individual lines for each different environment. Stomatal density varies from one species to another and is influenced by many factors. Ornrod and Renney (1968) found that 20 out of 35 weed specied had significantly more stomata on the abaxial than on the adaxial leaf surface. Environnmental conditions under which a plant is grown also influence stomatal density.(...).

This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transpiration efficiency (TE) is defined as total biomass produced per unit of water transpired. Improvement of TE means maximizing crop production per unit of water used. The objectives of the study were to examine, at the leaf level and the whole plant level, the variation in TE for sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] accessions, previously screened for TE and to test physiological mechanisms that may account for differences in TE. Three field studies and two mini-lysimeter studies (one done in pots under greenhouse conditions and one done in pots in the field) were conducted with eight accessions. Instantaneous measurements of assimilation (A), stomatal conductance (gs), and transpiration by gas exchange provided measures of the transpiration efficiency at the leaf level. Growth observations and soil water balance in field plots quantified components of whole-plant TE. Growth and development measurements showed significant difference, explaining the existence of photoperiod sensitivity among the sorghum genotypes. Assimilation (A), stomatal conductance (gs), and maximum quantum efficiency of photosystem II (Fv/Fm) were consistently greater for accession PI533946 (from India) and greater for accession PI295121 (from Australia) in both field and the field-pot studies (p
