Download or read book Mapping of Quantitative Trait Loci for Malting Quality in a Winter X Spring Barley Hordeum Vulgare L Cross written by Adeline M. Oziel and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making quality and winterhardiness in barley are "ultimate" phenotypes composed of component, quantitatively inherited traits. A 69-point genome map of the seven chromosomes of barley was used, in conjunction with multi-environment phenotypes for grain yield and malting quality, to determine the chromosome locations of quantitative trait loci (QTLs). A combined analysis of the two environments identified QTLs that were both common and unique to each environment. Dispersed QTLs with positive relationships provide ready targets for marker-assisted selection. Overlapping QTLs for agronomic and making quality QTLs with favorable alleles contributed by alternate parents will require further, higher resolution mapping to determine if negative relationships are due to linkage or pleiotropy. There is preliminary evidence for orthologous agronomic trait and malting QTLs in barley. This QTL analysis will hopefully assist in the rapid development of winter making varieties that will maximize the profitability of Oregon barley production.

Download or read book Plant Cold Hardiness written by Paul H. Li and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is compiled based on the proceedings of the 5th International Plant Cold Hardiness Seminar, which was held at Oregon State University, Corvallis, Oregon, USA, August 5 to 8, 1996. Participants representing 16 nations and 22 U. S. states attended the seminar. Researchers came from major laboratories around the world involving plant cold hardiness research. The information compiled in this volume represents the state-of the-art research and our understanding of plant cold hardiness in terms of molecular biol ogy, biochemistry, and physiology. The 1996 International Plant Cold Hardiness Seminar was the fifth of the series; it was first held in 1977 at the University of Minnesota, St. Paul, MN, and since then has met every 5 years. The overall goal of this seminar series is to foster the exchange of ideas and research findings among the diverse groups of scientists studying freezing and chilling stresses from a wide variety of perspectives. This is the only international conference focus ing its programs entirely on low temperature stress in plants. In accordance with the tradi tion, the fifth conference focused on freezing and chilling stress of plants and covered various aspects of plant cold hardiness, including molecular genetics, biochemistry, physi ology, and agricultural applications. All contributors to this volume are eminent researchers who have had significant contributions to the knowledge of plant cold hardiness.
Download or read book Plant Growth written by Everlon Rigobelo and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2016-11-16 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last few decades, the prevalence of studies about plant growth has dramatically grown in most regions of the world. Many aspects have been investigated related to this phenomenon. If we can gain understanding of how plants grow, then we may be able to manipulate it to reduce both chemical fertilizer use and its environmental impact without decreasing the yield. This book provides information about the use of bio-agents, plant health, plant pathogen, property of melanin, and the influence of rootstock and root growth. We hope this information will be useful for all the people who work with this hot topic.

The emphasis is on advanced research on the major crops, including the model plants maize and rice, as well as on future road maps of genomic research for the less-often considered but equally deserving cereals and millets.
Download or read book Quantitative Trait Locus Mapping of Yield and Yield Components in Barley Hordeum Vulgare L written by Abdoulaye Traore and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Higher grain yield is a key objective in barley (Hordeum vulgare. L) breeding. Despite extensive research on the genetics of yield and its components, selection for yield per se is still the most extensively employed because of negative relationships among components, modest correlations between yield and any particular component, and the additional resources required for measuring the components. The development of quantitative trait locus (QTL) detection procedures allows for an alternative approach to this issue. The objective of this investigation was to determine the biological basis of observed grain yield QTLs, with particular reference to yield components and yield-related traits. Yield and yield component traits were assessed in a population of spring barley doubled haploids from a cross of 'Steptoe' x 'Morex'. The scope of inference of the experiment was broadened by using reference QTL data sets from the multiple environment assessment of the same population. Both positive and negative relationships among yield, component, and related trait QTLs were observed. The QTL data indicate that indirect selection for yield via yield components would be ineffective. The yield QTL effects in this germplasm were largely attributable to lodging and basal internode length. Localization and interpretation of yield QTLs may be useful for studying orthologous gene expression in other germplasm and in developing multiple character selection strategies.
