Book Inheritance of Plant Height in Barley  Hordeum Vulgare L  Emed  LAM

Download or read book Inheritance of Plant Height in Barley Hordeum Vulgare L Emed LAM written by Ali Bayraktar and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four, six-rowed, spring barley cultivars were used as parental material in this study. The parents were distinctly different in plant height. Washington-6124-62 is a standard height selection while Short Wocus and Minn. 66-102 are intermediate. The fourth parent was a dwarf selection obtained from India. The two intermediate cultivars and the dwarf cultivar were crossed to the tall parent, Wa-6124-62, with a portion of the F1 progeny backcrossed to the shorter parent. In addition, the intermediate parent, Short Wocus, was crossed to Indian Dwarf. The following generations were available for study: parents, BC1F1, F1, and F2. The purpose of this study was to obtain information concerning the inheritance of plant height and to determine when selection for this trait could be made in the breeding program most effectively. To achieve this objective heritability and the mode of gene action were studied as well as number of genes segregating for plant height. The effect of temperature on plant height was also investigated in a growth chamber utilizing two temperature levels, 19° C and 30° C. Plant height was recorded on an individual plant basis at two sites that were distinctly different environmentally and in the growth chamber. The number of nodes were counted, and the length of internodes measured for genetic interpretation of culm length. Broad sense heritability values for plant height of each cross were estimated by using the variance of parents, F1's and F2' s. Heritability values were quite high in the F2 generation ranging from 50 to 90 percent, and suggest that plant phenotype gave a relatively good indication of the genotype for plant height. Height of the F1 plants was between the mid-parent and tall parent indicating partial dominance for tall culm length. In earlier studies, many investigators found that additive gene action was the major component of genetic variability for plant height. Results obtained from this study suggest that the nature of gene action is a function of the parents used. Where large differences exist between parents, plant height appeared to be largely influenced by non-additive gene action. When the parents were similar in height the trait was controlled mainly by additive gene action. Fairly discrete height classes in the segregating populations indicated that plant height was controlled by only a few genetic factors in these populations. Ratios obtained from segregating populations suggested the presence of three recessive genetic factors for short height in the dwarf parent (Indian Dwarf). The tall parent, Wa-6124-62, and intermediate parent, Minn. 66-102, appeared to differ for plant height by one major genetic factor. Difference in height among the cultivars was mostly due to difference in internode length rather than the number of nodes. It was concluded that the rather simple inheritance of plant height in barley will allow effective selection in the F2 generation for short stature, and progress to develop semi-dwarf barley cultivars should be possible if stiffness of straw can also be obtained along with short stature. In the cross between the tall and dwarf parent, selection for intermediate plant height would be more effective if delayed for several generations of selfing due to the relatively large dominance component of genetic variance.

Book Crop Stress and its Management  Perspectives and Strategies

Download or read book Crop Stress and its Management Perspectives and Strategies written by B. Venkateswarlu and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-11-22 with total page 617 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crops experience an assortment of environmental stresses which include abiotic viz., drought, water logging, salinity, extremes of temperature, high variability in radiation, subtle but perceptible changes in atmospheric gases and biotic viz., insects, birds, other pests, weeds, pathogens (viruses and other microbes). The ability to tolerate or adapt and overwinter by effectively countering these stresses is a very multifaceted phenomenon. In addition, the inability to do so which renders the crops susceptible is again the result of various exogenous and endogenous interactions in the ecosystem. Both biotic and abiotic stresses occur at various stages of plant development and frequently more than one stress concurrently affects the crop. Stresses result in both universal and definite effects on plant growth and development. One of the imposing tasks for the crop researchers globally is to distinguish and to diminish effects of these stress factors on the performance of crop plants, especially with respect to yield and quality of harvested products. This is of special significance in view of the impending climate change, with complex consequences for economically profitable and ecologically and environmentally sound global agriculture. The challenge at the hands of the crop scientist in such a scenario is to promote a competitive and multifunctional agriculture, leading to the production of highly nourishing, healthy and secure food and animal feed as well as raw materials for a wide variety of industrial applications. In order to successfully meet this challenge researchers have to understand the various aspects of these stresses in view of the current development from molecules to ecosystems. The book will focus on broad research areas in relation to these stresses which are in the forefront in contemporary crop stress research.

  • Release : 2018-08-18
  • ISBN : 3319925288
  • Pages : 400 pages

Download or read book The Barley Genome written by Nils Stein and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-08-18 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an overview of the state-of-the-art in barley genome analysis, covering all aspects of sequencing the genome and translating this important information into new knowledge in basic and applied crop plant biology and new tools for research and crop improvement. Unlimited access to a high-quality reference sequence is removing one of the major constraints in basic and applied research. This book summarizes the advanced knowledge of the composition of the barley genome, its genes and the much larger non-coding part of the genome, and how this information facilitates studying the specific characteristics of barley. One of the oldest domesticated crops, barley is the small grain cereal species that is best adapted to the highest altitudes and latitudes, and it exhibits the greatest tolerance to most abiotic stresses. With comprehensive access to the genome sequence, barley’s importance as a genetic model in comparative studies on crop species like wheat, rye, oats and even rice is likely to increase.

Book Annual Plant Reviews  Seed Development  Dormancy and Germination

Download or read book Annual Plant Reviews Seed Development Dormancy and Germination written by Kent Bradford and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The formation, dispersal and germination of seeds are crucial stages in the life cycles of gymnosperm and angiosperm plants. The unique properties of seeds, particularly their tolerance to desiccation, their mobility, and their ability to schedule their germination to coincide with times when environmental conditions are favorable to their survival as seedlings, have no doubt contributed significantly to the success of seed-bearing plants. Humans are also dependent upon seeds, which constitute the majority of the world’s staple foods (e.g., cereals and legumes). Seeds are an excellent system for studying fundamental developmental processes in plant biology, as they develop from a single fertilized zygote into an embryo and endosperm, in association with the surrounding maternal tissues. As genetic and molecular approaches have become increasingly powerful tools for biological research, seeds have become an attractive system in which to study a wide array of metabolic processes and regulatory systems. Seed Development, Dormancy and Germination provides a comprehensive overview of seed biology from the point of view of the developmental and regulatory processes that are involved in the transition from a developing seed through dormancy and into germination and seedling growth. It examines the complexity of the environmental, physiological, molecular and genetic interactions that occur through the life cycle of seeds, along with the concepts and approaches used to analyze seed dormancy and germination behavior. It also identifies the current challenges and remaining questions for future research. The book is directed at plant developmental biologists, geneticists, plant breeders, seed biologists and graduate students.
