Book Heterosis Combining Ability in Pearl Millet

Download or read book Heterosis Combining Ability in Pearl Millet written by Rakesh Parmar and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2015-01-16 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is based on my M.Sc(Agri.) studied HETEROSIS AND COMBINING ABILITY FOR GRAIN YIELD AND YIELD COMPONENTS IN PEARLMILLET [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.] at DEPARTMENT OF PLANT BREEDING AND GENETICS CHIMANBHAI PATEL COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE SARDARKRUSHINAGAR DANTIWADA AGRICULTURAL UNIVERSITY SARDARKRUSHINAGAR - 385 506 The present investigation was undertaken to study the magnitude of heterosis and combining ability for grain yield and yield components in pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.]. The crosses were attempted by adopting line x tester mating design among five lines and fourteen testers during kharif 2007. The resultant seventy hybrids along with nineteen parents were evaluated in a randomized block design with three replications at the Bajra Research Station, Regional Research Station, Sardarkrushinagar Dantiwada Agricultural University, Sardarkrushinagar, during kharif 2007. As Plant breeder i made so hard work for this. From: Rakesh Parmar

Book Genetic Enhancement of Rabi Sorghum

Download or read book Genetic Enhancement of Rabi Sorghum written by Sanjana Reddy and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2015-05-28 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genetic Enhancement of Rabi Sorghum – Adapting the Indian Durras presents both the historical background and the recent research done in breeding this important world crop for more global production. Its chapters cover topics in origin and taxonomy, morphology and breeding behavior, genetics, and cytogenetics, also looking at production, nutrition, and alternate uses. The durra race is Ethiopian in origin and its introgression with wild forms permitted adaptation to drier conditions. These have migrated and adapted to the currently known crop that is cultivated in the winter season and commonly called rabi sorghums. Grown under receding soil moisture conditions, rabi sorghums have tolerance to abiotic stresses apart from biotic stresses, unlike the rainy sorghums that are grown widely in the world. However, they must be more resilient to rapid changes in climate, for example. The variability from winter sorghums is being introgressed into rainy sorghums. With the yield plateaus reached and sorghum gaining importance as a food crop, this book will be of importance to those studying durras and their breeding. - Presents both the historical background and most recent research done in breeding rabi sorghum for more global production - Provides information on the adaptation of the crop and the ways it has migrated to the currently known crop, which is cultivated in winter season and commonly called as rabi sorghum - Explores strategies for resilience as the crop must be prepared to withstand rapid and varying changes in climate

Book Heterosis for Grain Yield Components in Pearl Millet Pennisetum Glaucum L R Br

Download or read book Heterosis for Grain Yield Components in Pearl Millet Pennisetum Glaucum L R Br written by M. Vetriventhan and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An experiment comprised of five male sterile lines and 30 inbred testers of pearl millet and their 150 hybrids was conducted at millet breeding station, Center for Plant Breeding and Genetics, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore during 2005-2007 for studying the extent of hybrid vigour in F1 for grain yield and its components. Highest and significant negative relative heterosis, heterobeltiosis and standard heterosis was observed in the cross ICMA 94111A x PT 5259 and the same combination showed negative relative heterosis, heterobeltiosis and standard heterosis for the trait plant height. The cross combination ICMA 94111A x PT 5423 showed higher magnitude of positive relative heterosis and heterobeltiosis for the trait total number of tillers. Highest and significant positive standard heterosis was recorded in ICMA 88004A x PT 5164 for total number of tillers. The hybrid cross combination ICMA 94111A x PT 5423 showed highest and significant relative heterosis, heterobeltiosis and standard heterosis for total productive tillers. The hybrid ICMA 88004A x PT 5181 recorded highest and significant positive standard heterosis for ear head length and 100 grain weight, ICMA 88004A x PT 5200 for ear head girth. 13 hybrids recorded highly significant standard heterosis for grain yield per plant. among 150 hybrids studied, seven hybrids namely ICMA 88004 A x PT 5164, ICMA 88004 A x PT 5200, ICMA 88004 A x PT 5232, ICMA 88004 A x PT 5130, ICMA 88004 A x PT 5173, 732 A x PT 5172 and ICMA 88004 A x PT 5809 were selected as best crosses since they expressed high standard heterosis over standard hybrid (MBH163) for many of the traits studied for high grain yield.
