Breeding for resistant genotypes is the best strategy to offset the destructive effects of cassava mosaic disease (CMD) and cassava bacterial blight (CBB). Two sets of diallel parents were selected for the forest and the savannah ecological zones in Ghana based on good levels of resistance to CMD and CBB. Both sets were crossed in a half-diallel design. The first set of seven progenitors and their 21 F1 progenies were planted in a randomised complete block design (RCBD) with three replications in two different locations for two seasons in the forest ecology. The second set of five progenitors and their 10 F1 progenies were planted in a RCBD with three replications in two locations in the coastal savannah ecological zone of Ghana. Both experiments were evaluated for CMD and CBB resistance, fresh root yield, dry root yield, root number, harvest index, dry matter content, plant height at maturity and height at first branching, levels of branching and plant vigour. Results of the combined analysis of variance revealed that the environment effect was significant for all the traits. General combining ability and specific combining ability effects were significant for most of the traits. Narrow sense heritability was significant for plant vigour, root number, CMD and CBB in both the zones. CMD and root number also had a predictability ratio of close to one, indicating the importance of additive gene effects. 相似文献

Barley breeders in Syria attempting to develop barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivars resistant to barley leaf stripe (BLS) disease caused by Pyrenophora graminea Ito & Kuribayashi [anamorph Drechslera graminea (Rabenh. Ex. Schlech. Shoem.)]. Information on the combining ability for BLS resistance in Syria is not available. This study
was conducted to evaluate, in 10 genetically diverse barley parents, general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining
ability (SCA) effects towards the determination of the genetic basis of disease resistance and to estimate genetic variability
for yield components and its modification by BLS. Ten parental genotypes varying in their reactions to BLS were crossed in
a half-diallel mating design to generate 45 full-sib families. The families and the parents were inoculated with P. graminea and evaluated for resistance in replicated field tests (three inoculated and three non-inoculated plots). The parents chosen
showed wide variations for resistance to BLS. Genetic component analysis showed significant effects for both GCA and SCA for
resistance to BLS, suggesting that additive as well as non-additive genetic mechanisms were involved in the expression of
resistance in these parents. GCA effects were more important than SCA effects. Resistant parents exhibited high negative GCA
indicating that additive gene effects were more predominant, and suggesting their prime suitability for use in barley breeding
programs to improve resistance to BLS. Narrow-sense heritability was 58% and broad-sense heritability was 99% indicating that
selection for BLS resistance should be effective in these crosses. A high genetic variability for the agronomic traits studied
was observed. Yield components decreased significantly in inoculated plants and more pronounced in diseased plants. Significant
GCA was observed for all traits. Values for GCA were, in some cases, significantly modified by BLS. This indicates that attention
must be paid to the danger of drawing conclusion in quantitative genetics studies dealing with both diseased and healthy plants.
Two genotypes, Banteng and Igri, had high negative GCA effects and are promising parents for enhancement of BLS resistance. 相似文献

This study was conducted to assess genetic potential of smooth bromegrass for water stress and to identify the association among different seed and forage production related traits. Thirty-six genotypes were clonally propagated and evaluated in the field under two moisture environments (normal irrigation and water stress) during 2013–2015. High variation was observed among genotypes for all of the measured traits. Water stress had negative effects on seed yield and its components and reduced genotypic variation of measured traits. On average, water stress reduced seed and forage yield by 38 and 14%, respectively. Genetic coefficient of variation for seed yield and its components was higher under stress, providing opportunities for a greater selection differential. The estimates of heritability were higher in normal condition than water stress condition for all of the evaluated traits, which is advantageous for successful selection. Moreover, the majority of seed yield components had higher heritability estimates than seed yield. The higher heritability estimates of some seed yield components, compared to SYP, suggests a potential for indirect selection. The results showed that selection for both forage and seed yield is possible simultaneously in normal irrigation as well as in water stress environment. Genotypes 7, 8, 26 and 27 had high forage yield, while genotypes 23 and 27 had high seed yield under both normal irrigation and water stress condition. Three genotypes ranked among the top three for both seed and forage yield and under both normal irrigation and water stress condition. They are promising parents for further use in developing improved cultivars by cross-breeding. 相似文献

The present investigation was carried out to estimate the interrelationships and repeatabilities of various variability parameters,
i.e., genotypic (σ2g) and phenotypic (σ2p) variances, genotypic (GCV) and phenotypic (PCV) coefficients of variation, broad-sense heritability (hb2), genetic advance (GA), and genetic gain (GG), using data derived from a number of plant characters [seed yield (SY), days
to heading (DH) and maturity (DM), plant height (PH), and thousand kernel weight (TKW)] of 17 spring safflower genotypes grown
in 27 environments in Iran during 2003–2005. The analysis of variance for the five characters revealed significant differences
among the genotypes in most of the environments, indicating a very high variability within the genotype. High genotypic and
phenotypic variances in the quantitative traits, particularly for SY, were markers of increased success. A close correlation
between GCV and PCV was observed for all the traits, indicating that all of the characters were less influenced by the environment
and that the variability which exists in these characters is under genetic influence; however, the relatively higher values
of PCV indicate the predominant role of environment. High expected genetic advances were observed for SY, but this trait showed
large fluctuations in different environments (97.4%). High and low mean values of heritability were observed for DH (74.3%)
and SY (59.7%), respectively, whereas high and low mean values of genetic gain were found for SY (60.3%) and DM (4.2%), respectively.
High heritability coupled with low GA as a percentage of the mean was observed for DH and MD, whereas moderate heritability
with moderate GA as a percentage of the mean was exhibited for SY. Analysis of correlation among the parameters showed that
they were strongly and constantly correlated with each other, but none of them were consistently well correlated with the
heritability parameter (hb2). Based on estimates of the genetic variability parameters within each trial, the ranking of genotypes in the low-performance
subset for all traits differed from that in the high-performance subset. This result indicates poor repeatability for the
genetic variability parameters. The estimates of the parameters in the multi-year trials were almost constant and repeatable,
whereas the responses over years showed poor repeatability. 相似文献

Summary In this study, the application of molecular markers to optimise genetic diversity in a polycross breeding program of perennial
ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) was evaluated. The genetic diversity among 98 potential parental plants from three maturity groups (early, intermediate
and late flowering) was investigated using amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers. For each maturity group,
two polycrosses of six parental plants with contrasting levels of genetic diversity were composed. Average genetic diversity
among parents selected for narrow polycrosses was 36% lower than among parents selected for wide polycrosses. Diversity within
first generation synthetic progenies (Syn1) was proportional to the diversity within the respective parental polycrosses.
However, differences were less pronounced with Syn1 progenies from narrow polycrosses showing 16% reduced diversity when compared
to Syn1 progenies from wide polycrosses. Multivariate analyses allowed for a clear separation of the six Syn1 progenies based
on AFLP markers and demonstrated their genetic distinctness. Evaluation of dry matter yield, date of ear emergence and stem
length of Syn1 and Syn2 progenies showed progenies from wide polycrosses to be constantly higher yielding when compared to
progenies from narrow polycrosses. On the other hand, there was no significant difference in variability for the two morphological
traits between progenies of narrow- and wide polycrosses. The results presented here provide evidence for an efficient application
of molecular markers to select genetically diverse polycross parents which resulted in an average yield increase of 3.8%. 相似文献

The aim of the study was to evaluate the relationship between genetic and phenotypic distances of parents and the genetic potential of crosses as measured by the frequency of transgressive segregants in homozygous populations. Material for the study involved 17 barley cross‐combinations. In each cross, the parental genotypes, F2 hybrids and doubled haploid (DH) lines were analysed. Yield and yield‐related traits were observed in the experiments. Phenotypic (univariate and multivariate) and genetic distances (GD) were investigated between pairs of parental genotypes. Genetic distance was evaluated by using random amplified polymorphic DNA markers. In F2 generations, the genetic coefficient of variability (GCV) was evaluated. Within all the cross‐combinations studied, each DH line was compared with both parents to distinguish the positive and negative transgressive lines. In addition, the coefficient of gene distribution (r) along parental genomes was evaluated. Relationships between frequency of transgression and both phenotypic and GDs, GCV and r, were assessed by regression analysis. It was found that for all the traits studied the frequency of transgressive lines depended mainly on gene distribution (r). Genetic distance between parents appeared to be significant for the occurrence of transgression effects in plant height, ear length, grain weight per ear and grain yield per plot. Regression analysis has shown that phenotypic differences between parental genotypes were also important for the frequency of transgressive lines. A weak relationship was found between the variation of F2 hybrids and the occurrence of transgressive lines. The results indicate that occurrence of transgressive segregants in a homozygous population should be considered as a phenomenon dependent simultaneously on several factors characterizing parental genotypes. Among them, the most important are: gene distribution, phenotypic diversity and GD. 相似文献

Summary Seed yield in perennial ryegrass is low and unpredictable. Spaced-plant traits suitable for indirect selection for total seed yield in drilled plots would be very useful. The objectives of this investigation were to evaluate genetic variation for seed yield components and other traits among clones from three perennial ryegrass cultivars differing in seed yield and their open-pollinated progenies. Per cultivar, a random set of 50 genotypes was cloned and on each genotype seed was generated by open pollination. Clonal ramets of the parents were observed for 17 traits in 1986 at two locations. In 1987 and 1988, parents and progenies were observed as single plants in a randomized complete block design with two replications. There was little cultivar-environment interaction for most traits. The parents differed significantly for almost all traits. Half-sib (HS) families differed for only three to five traits. Broad-sense heritabilities (h2

2. Narrow-sense heritabilities (h2
n), based on variance components among HS-families, were low to moderate and mostly not significant; for most traits h2
n estimates varied between years and cultivars. Flag leaf width and date of first anthesis showed the highest h2
n. Narrow-sense heritability estimates from parent-offspring regressions (h2
nPO) ranged from non-significant to high, depending on year and cultivar; they were generally higher than the corresponding h2
n estimates. Generally, h2
nPO was highest for earliness, flag leaf width, ear length and the number of spikelets per ear. Breeding methods that capitalize on additive genetic variance, such as mass selection, should result in improvement for these traits. 相似文献

The genetic diversity present in the breeding programs of southeast Europe was assessed in a set of 114 winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars using AFLP and SSR markers. The average genetic diversity characterised with the Jaccard’s distance coefficient was 0.605 with an interval of 0.053 and 0.889. The wheat cultivars originating from the four countries differed from each other in their clustering patterns, including the numbers of clusters and the most prevalent cluster, which was breeding program-specific. Hungarian and Romanian cultivars showed closer relationships, and Serbian and Macedonian cultivars grouped together more frequently. The phenotypic variability of the same cultivars was assessed under diverse ecological conditions of the four growing sites, measuring the disease resistance against two foliar diseases, and several agronomic traits. Of the phenotypic traits, powdery mildew and leaf rust responses showed significant associations with genetic diversity, whereas heading date, plant height and yield components did not. Through parallel assessment of genotypic and phenotypic diversity it was possible to separate winter wheat cultivars with similar genotype but diverse phenotype from those with similar phenotype but diverse genotype. This information will allow breeders to make informed decisions in selecting parents for new crosses. 相似文献

Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is known to be sensitive to genotype-by-environment interaction (GEI) effects. While previous studies have reported strong GEI effects on peanut yield, most of those studies involved a relatively small number of unrelated genotypes. We examined the extent of GEI effects in elite Virginia-type peanut using a large population of recombinant inbreed lines (RILs). Two-hundred-sixty-six F7 RILs derived from different cultivars were grown in three environments. Net pod yield (NPY) was evaluated along with 11 other traits. ANOVA revealed that genotype and environment affected all of the examined traits, except for the triplet trait. The substantial influence of the environment was also demonstrated in a genetic-parameter analysis, in which the phenotypic variation coefficients were almost double those for genotypic variation. Still, relatively high heritability and genetic gain values were found for pod weight and NPY. Since NPY is the main target for selection, it was analyzed further. Path analysis showed that NPY is most directly influenced by pod weight and the shelling ratio. A significant GEI effect on NPY was identified using an AMMI model that described 42.7% of the total variation. This GEI component was subjected to a principal components analysis, which confirmed that the variability due to the different environments was greater than the variability that could be attributed to the different genotypes. Yet, several lines had stable yields across environments. These results demonstrate the importance of multi-location phenotyping for QTL analyses and crop improvement in peanut. 相似文献

We evaluated the agronomic performance and diversity for morphological traits among a collection of local and exotic cassava genotypes in the Guinea Savannah agroecology of Ghana. One hundred and fifty cassava genotypes were assessed using 28 agro-morphological (18 qualitative and 10 quantitative) traits recorded from three months after planting until harvesting at 12 months after planting. There was significant genetic variability among the genotypes for most of the traits evaluated. High broad sense heritability was observed for most of the traits. Principal component analyses of the traits indicated that the first three principal component axes which accounted for more than 55% of the variation for 10 quantitative traits included storage root yield, number of leaves, harvest index, height at first branching, and plant height as the most important traits. A greater proportion of the phenotypic variances of plant height, height at branching, and harvest index were accounted for by genetic variances indicating that progress could made with selection. Pearson correlation analysis indicated that a number of traits were related to growth and yield of cassava in the Guinea Savanna ecology, making indirect selection for root yield possible. The study revealed ample genotypic variation in these morphological and agronomic traits to support selection for improved varieties. 相似文献

The main objective of this study was to estimate the selection accuracy and to predict the genetic gain in cassava breeding using genomic selection methodologies. We evaluated 358 cassava genotypes for the following traits: shoot weight (SW), fresh root yield (FRY), starch fraction amylose content (AC), dry matter content (DMC), and starch yield (S-Y). Genotyping was performed using 390 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), which were used as covariates in the random regression-best linear unbiased prediction model for genomic selection. The heritability values detected by markers for the SW, FRY, AC, DMC, and S-Y traits were 0.25, 0.25, 0.03, 0.20, and 0.26, respectively. Because the low heritability detected for AC, this trait was eliminated from further analysis. Using only the most informative SNPs (118, 92, 56, and 97 SNPs for SW, FRY, DMC, and S-Y, respectively) we observed higher selection accuracy which were 0.83, 0.76, 0.67, and 0.77, respectively to SW, FRY, DMC, and S-Y. With these levels of accuracy and considering a selection cycle reduced by half the time, the theoretical gains with genomic selection compared to phenotypic selection for DMC, FRY, and SW would be 39.42 %, 56.90 %, and 73.96 %, respectively. These results indicate that in the cassava, genomic selection can substantially speed up selection cycles, thereby increasing gains per unit time. Although there are high expectations for incorporating this strategy into breeding programs, we still need to validate the model for other traits and evaluate whether the selection accuracy can be improved using more SNPs. 相似文献

Summary The two most serious diseases of cassava (Manihot esculenta
Crantz) are cassava mosaic disease (CMD) and cassava bacterial blight (CBB) (Xanthomonas manihotis
Starr). Clone 58308, derived from the third backcross of the interspecific cross of cassava (M. esculenta) x ceara rubber (M. glaziovii), showed a high level of resistance to both diseases. Crosses of 58308 with several other clones which varied from susceptible to moderately susceptible to both diseases gave progenies with a significant genotypic correlation between resistance to both diseases (r=0.90), apparently due to linkage. The heritabilities of resistance to the diseases were estimated at 50–70% for CMD and 25–65% for CBB. Resistance to both diseases is assumed to be polygenic. The correlated response to selection for CMD and for CBB was estimated. 相似文献

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the relationship between the genetic distances (GD) and phenotypic distances (PD)
of parents and the specific combining ability (SCA) and heterosis effects. The experiment comprised 18 parental genotypes
of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and 76 F2 hybrids, obtained after crossing in a line × tester scheme. Parents and hybrids were examined in a field experiment conducted
in a block design with three replications. SCA as well as mid-parent heterosis effects were estimated for selected morphological
and technological traits. PDs and GDs were investigated between pairs of parental genotypes. GD between parental genotypes
was evaluated by using randomly amplified polymorphic DNA markers. Heterosis was observed in all hybrids, and protein content
exhibited the highest heterosis among the seven examined traits. The relationship between PD and GD as well as the SCA and
mid-parent heterosis effects were evaluated using correlation coefficient. The correlation between PD, SCA and heterosis were
low and not significant for the examined traits, whereas the correlation between SCA, heterosis and GDs were significant for
protein content and rheological properties. The results indicate that GDs between parents can be used to predict performance
of hybrids for selected technological traits. 相似文献

To investigate the genetic regulation of postharvest flower longevity in Asiatic hybrid lilies (Lilium L.), 10 cultivars and
45 progenies were forced, harvested and evaluated under standardised conditions in growth chambers. Analysis of variance for
individual flower longevity indicated highly significant (p < 0.001) variation among parents, among progenies and among descendants
within progenies. High broad-sense heritability (0.79) calculated at the individual plant level indicated that selection for
long individual flower longevity can be expected to be very effective. General combining ability (GCA) effects were highly
significant ( p < 0.001), and the estimated narrow-sense heritability was high (0.74). Therefore, individual flower longevity
of a genotype can be used as an indication for its breeding value. Although deviating results can be expected as specific
combining ability (SCA) effects were also significant ( p = 0.046). Small, but significant correlations between individual
flower longevity and other plant characters were found. The impact of these correlations on the selection efficiency for improved
postharvest performance of lily inflorescences is discussed.

To study the genetic variation, heritability and genetic correlations of some agro-morphological traits in tall fescue, 25
parents from a genetically broad-base germplasm were polycrossed and their respective half-sib families were generated. Clonally
propagated parents and their half-sib families were grown as spaced single plants using a randomized complete-block design
with three replications, and observed for seven traits in 2006 and 2007. The estimates of broad-sense heritability were moderate to high for the traits studied. Narrow-sense heritability estimates from analyses of progenies and from regression of half-sib (HS) progenies on parents suggested that genetic variation for these traits was largely controlled by additive gene action. Association of dry matter
yield (DMY) with plant height, number of fertile shoot, curbs width and spring growth was positive and significant. With the
exception of number of days to pollination, correlation coefficients of the traits between the parents and offspring were
not significant. Based on parent-offspring regression, genetic gain from selection for DMY was high, demonstrating genetic
potential for improving this trait. Overall, there was high genetic variation and moderate heritability for most traits in
the tall fescue populations evaluated. In conclusion, to improve herbage yield, selection would be more effective based on
forage yield components. 相似文献

Genetic variability in response to anther culture was investigated in 49 winter hexaploid wheats, comprising 33 pure lines (F10) derived from a composite cross programme and their 16 parental genotypes. All genotypes were grown in a randomized block design with three replications in a controlled greenhouse. The number of embryoids and total plant regeneration per 100 anthers, as well as the numbers of green and albino plants regenerated per 100 embryoids, were measured. Significant genetic variability was observed among the 49 genotypes for all the traits studied. All traits showed high heritability. Among the genotypes compared, DC230N and 1BPT-40 gave the best results for the production of embryoids and IBPT-78 had the highest value for the production of green plants. The genotype IBPT-34 developed a large number of albino plants, and it should be useful as a parent in studies to determine the genetic control of albino plants in wheat. 相似文献

Heritability, variance components and correlation of morphological and phenological traits in hazelnut 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Most traits of interest in hazelnut are quantitative, yet there is little information available on heritability, variance components, or correlations. In this study, 13 morphological and four phenological traits were observed for 3 years on 41 parental genotypes, and for 2 years on seed‐lings representing 35 progenies. Narrow‐sense heritability estimates obtained by regression of offspring means on midparent values were all high, ranging from 0.56 for amount of kernel fibre to 0.89 for nut depth. Data on the parent genotypes was used to analyse variance components and showed that genotypic variance accounted for most of the phenotypic variance for all traits, and there was very little variation among trees within genotypes. Genotype‐year interaction accounted for only a very small part of the phenotypic variance for most traits, and changes in genotype rank were few and minor. Thus, selection based on genotype means is appropriate. The largest genotype‐year interaction components were observed for time of nut maturity, time of stigma exsertion, time of catkin elongation, number of nuts per cluster and amount of kernel fibre. For these five traits, evaluation over a period of years is advised. Correlation coefficients were large and positive for four nut size traits, indicating some redundancy in these measurements. Three of the phenological traits (time of stigma exsertion, time of catkin elongation, and time of leaf budbreak) were also highly and positively correlated. A large genetic correlation (0.44 < r < 0.73) was noted between good blanching and early phenology (catkin elongation, stigma exsertion and leaf budbreak), although plots of individual seedling values showed a large degree of scattering. Genetic correlations also indicated that seedlings with small nuts also tend to have compressed nuts, short husks and catkins that elongate later, but plots of individual seedling values showed large scattering. Correlations among the six traits directly related to the objectives of the Oregon State University hazelnut breeding programme (kernel weight, per cent kernel, nut shape index, blanching ability, relative husk length and nut maturity) were very low, indicating that they can be handled as independent traits. 相似文献
