Yield performance of interspecific F₁ hybrids of the greek mountain tea, Sideritis spp. L.     

A. H. Goliaris  D. G. Roupakias 《Plant Breeding》1997,116(5):493-497

Interspecific F₁ hybrids were produced after artificial intercrossing of six Sideritis species indigenous to Greece, namely: S. athoa, S. euboea, S. syriaca, S. raeseri, S. scardica, S. clandestina and a cultivated clone of S. raeseri. It was found that all species cross with each other, but the level of crossability varied with the cross-combination. In the yield evaluation experiments, the interspecific hybrids with a common female parent were considered as a group. It was observed that yield during the year of establishment was relatively low, but the interspecific hybrids out-yielded the control in both fresh and dry weight. All hybrids produced higher yields in the following years and their productivity started to decline after the fifth year. All hybrids produced higher yields than the control in all six years of the experiment. The highest yield over the years, in fresh and dry weight, was produced by the group Sideritis raeseri cultivated clone (cc) ×Sideritis spp. This yield, however, was not always significantly different from the yield produced by the second in the rank group (S. clandestina×Sideritis spp.). A high correlation (r > 0.99) between fresh and dry weight was observed. The two groups with the highest yield also had the highest essential oil content. In addition, all the interspecific hybrids had a higher essential oil content than the control species. Furthermore, the essential oil content of the selected individual hybrid plants ranged between the midparental value to a value higher than the high-parental species, indicating an additive and dominance gene action. It was also found that the content of the essential oil in the seven most important components (pinene, lemonene, cynene, menthone, copaene, caryophyllene and valerianic ester) varied from hybrid to hybrid. Given that Sideritis reproduces mainly asexually, the direct use of individual interspecific hybrids with higher yield and content in essential oil than the control species is possible in cultivation.  相似文献   

Development of B-Genome Chromosome Addition Lines of B. napus Using Different Interspecific Brassica Hybrids   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

D. Struss    U. Bellin  G. Röbbelen 《Plant Breeding》1991,106(3):209-214

By interspecific hybridization within the genus Brassica, trigenomic haploids were produced and back-crossed four times with B. napus, variety ‘Andor’. From this material, monosomic B-genome chromosome addition lines were selected with the extra chromosome derived from three different B-genome sources, i.e., B. nigra (BB), B. carinata (BBCC), and B. juncea (AABB). After selfing and/or microspore culture, disomic addition lines were obtained. Meiotic behavior was studied of the trigenomic hybrids, the pentaploid BC₁ plants, and the monosomic addition lines. The addition lines were shown to possess cytological stability and good fertility.  相似文献   

Comparison of fertility between the F1, F2 and anther derived lines in the crosses of indica/japonica and japonica/indica in rice (Oryza sativa L.)     

R. Narasimman  S. R. Sree Rangasamy 《Euphytica》1992,66(1-2):19-25

Summary Response of anthers in in vitro culture was examined in the indica-japonica hybrids of rice (Oryza sativa L.). Significant genotypic differences were observed for callus induction and regeneration among the different interracial hybrids of indica-japonica races. Induction frequency of haploids ranged from 57.7 to 72.9 per cent and doubled haploid androgenic lines ranged from 27.1 to 42.3 per cent in the anther culture of the different hybrids. The indica-japonica hybrids recorded partial pollen grain and spikelet fertility in F1 (29.9 to 41.5% and 19.4 to 48.7% respectively) as well as in F2 (42.7 to 50.6% and 37.1 to 54.4% respectively). In contrast, the androgenic doubled haploid lines recorded significant increase and the pollen grain and spikelet fertility was 76.3 and 78.6 per cent respecitively. The results suggested that the sterility barriers for realising genetic recombinants and fixation of fertile homozygous lines in indica-japonica hybridization programme could be overcome through F1 anther culture technique.Abbreviations BAP Benzyl Amino Purine - 2,4-D 2,4-Dichlorophenoxy acetic acid - MS Murashige & Skoog medium - IAA Indole Acetic Acid  相似文献   

Production of interspecific hybrids between Glycine max and G. tomentella through embryo culture     

Gyu Hwa Chung  Jin Hyeong Kim 《Euphytica》1990,48(2):97-101

Summary Interspecific hybrids have been obtained in an incompatible cross between Glycine max and G. tomentella through the in vitro culture of hybrid embryos. The percentage of successful pod setting in the crosses averaged 12.8% but there were marked differences depending on the soybean cultivar used as the female parent. Hybrid embryos at globular to heart stages were extracted from the embryo sac 15–25 days after pollination and cultured in vitro. Hybrid plants were successfully obtained by culturing the embryos on B5 medium supplemented with 0.1 mg/l IBA followed by culture on B5 medium supplemented with 0.1 mg/l TBA plus 0.25 mg/l 2-iP. The F1 plants resembled the wild male parent in growth form, but had an intermediate leaf shape between that of the parents.  相似文献   

Interspecific hybrids of Cyclamen persicum and C. graecum   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

H. Ishizaka 《Euphytica》1996,91(1):109-117

Summary Interspecific crosses were made to introduce the disease resistance of Cyclamen graecum into C. persicum cultivars and the abortive hybrid embryos were rescued by ovule culture. Diploid and tetraploid cultivars of C. persicum (CPD, 2n=2x=48; CPT, 2n=4x=96) were the pistillate parents and wild form of C. graecum (CG, 2n=84) were the staminate parents. After pollination, crossed ovaries were periodically collected and examined using paraffin sections. Histological observations suggested that both hybrid ovules of CPD × CG and CPT × CG should be transferred to the culture medium 35 days after pollination. Based upon this observation, crossed ovaries were collected 35 days after pollination, then ovules with placenta were explanted on culture medium and cultured in the dark at 25°C. Plantlets were induced from ovules cultured in MS medium containing 3% sucrose and 10% coconut milk. The hybrids (2n=66) derived from CPD × CG failed to yield viable seeds by self-pollination, although they showed some pollen fertility. In contrast, the hybrids (2n=90) derived from CPT × CG showed high pollen fertility and yielded viable seeds by self-pollination. Furthermore, they were resistant to disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cyclaminis, Erwinia herbicola pv. cyclamenae and Pseudomonas marginalis pv. marginalis.Abbreviations CPD C. persicum diploid - CPT C. persicum tetraploid - CG C. graecum  相似文献   

Effect of Ogura male-sterile cytoplasm on the performance of cabbage hybrid variety. II. Commercial characteristics     

Paulo E. de Melo  Leonardo B. de Giordano 《Euphytica》1994,78(1-2):149-154

Summary The main constraint of using Ogura male-sterile cytoplasm in Brassica is the induction of leaf yellowing at low temperature and the low seed set. But whether or not the cytoplasm can disturb the general commerical performance of the plants is not well-known. Therefore, this work was carried out with the purpose of evaluating Ogura cytoplasmic male-sterile cabbage hybrids and compare them to genomic similar male-fertile ones and to the most popular cabbage hybrid cultivated in Brazil. Harvest data showed an effect of the cytoplasm on reducing plant and head weight, core length and head length and width, although not altering heading index, shape and core indexes, nor head compactness. On the other hand, it was observed also that a careful selection of the parental lineages can produce male-sterile hybrids as good as their male-fertile analogues. All the evaluated hybrids were similar or better than the check for the characteristics under study.Abbreviations dat - days after transplanting - CNPH - National Center for Vegetable Crops Research  相似文献   

Chromosome association and pollen fertility in some interspecific hybrids of Lilium   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Yoshito Asano 《Euphytica》1982,31(1):121-128

Summary Meiotic observations in PMCs were made in eight kinds of interspecific hybrids in Lilium. Three hybrids, 6134-S × L. cernuum. L. regale × L. leichtlinii maximowiczii and L. auratum platyphyllum × L. henryi showed respectively the mean chromosome association frequencies of 1.4_II, 0.8_II and 1.5_II per cell at MI which were the lowest values hitherto reported in Lilium hybrids. In L. longiflorum × L. henryi, 33.3° of the cells had 1 or 2 multivalents of three to five chromosomes in addition to uni- and bivalents. 12° bivalents and 12 univalents were invariably observed in the triploid hybrid L. longiflorum × L. cernuum. The hybrids between the species belonging to the different sections of the genus generally showed high pollen sterility, with some exceptions. A more or less remote genomic homology was found between the different sections in Lilium.  相似文献   

用RAPD和SSR分子标记鉴定小金海棠F1代 杂种实生苗的研究   总被引：5，自引：0，他引：5

小金海棠（Malus xiaojinensis）具有多种抗逆特性，是苹果属植物中一种珍贵的野生种质资源。由于小金海棠具有无融合生殖特性，早期准确、快速、有效地鉴定其F1代杂种实生苗对于研究利用其众多抗逆基因具有重要意义。RAPD技术是现有鉴定果树杂种实生苗最为简单、快速和有效的分子标记技术，但RAPD技术本身存在一定的不稳定性。笔者对小金海棠和山荆子（M. baccata）F1代杂交实生苗79个单株进行了RAPD分析，并用SSR标记对RAPD标记的初步鉴定结果进行了进一步的验证。结果显示，RAPD标记鉴定出的杂种实生苗有72.2%得到SSR标记的证实。研究的结果还表明，“叠加”和“新带”两种RAPD带型，结合RAPD标记特异位点数可以为小金海棠F1代杂种实生苗提供可靠的鉴定依据。研究为利用RAPD技术早期快速鉴定果树杂种实生苗提供了新的信息和依据。  相似文献   

Gene flow in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)

This study was conducted in Brazil in order to assess the potential risk posed by gene escape from transgenic into non-transgenic plants and wild populations. A new methodology was applied to evaluate the gene flow between common bean cultivars, by means of a specially delineated experiment in two stages. The first stage consisted of the planting of one cultivar with violet flowers (BB) as pollen source (‘Diamante Negro’), and a receiver (‘Talismã’) with white flowers (bb), at different distances. The source was sown in the center of the area. The pollen receiver cultivar was sown, in concentrical squares around it. At maturity, the rows were sampled at varied distances from the source in the four cardinal directions. In the second stage, the sampled seeds of the previous stage were sown, and the percentage of outcrossing was evaluated during flowering through the presence of violet flowers (Bb). The highest frequency of natural hybrids, 0.136%, occurred at a distance of 0.5 m between the cultivars. The natural outcrossing rate was practically zero beyond a distance of 3.25 m.  相似文献   

Disturbed Mendelian segregations at isozyme marker loci in early backcrosses of Lolium multiflorum × Festuca pratensis hybrids to L. multiflorum     

M. W. Humphreys  D. Thorogood 《Euphytica》1992,66(1-2):11-18

Summary The segregation of interspecific recombinant Festuca pratensis (Fp) alleles, introgressed into the germolasm of Lolium multiflorum (Lm), at four loci (PGI/2, AcP/2, GOT/3 and BAP) is described. Heterozygous (Lm/Fp) plants were backcrossed to L. multiflorum (2n=2×=14) and subsequent BC2 Lm/Fp sibling genotypes intercrossed.In crosses between BC1 heterozygous plants (Lm/Fp) used as males and L. multiflorum, there was a reduced transmission of the F. pratensis (Donor Parent) derived alleles in the populations with PGI/2 and AcP/2 marker loci compared to the reciprocal cross but the reduction was not significantly different in those with GOT/3 and BAP markers.Two PGI/2 marked BC2 half-sib families in particular exhibited a more extreme deficiency of Fp/Fp progeny plants than anticipated from the BC2 segregations indicating possible linkage to zygotic lethals. Deficiencies of F. pratensis alleles were, in most cases, less marked in BC2 half-sib families indicating that a further round of recombination had reduced the size of the introgressed chromosome segment or that deleterious linkages had been broken. A tendency towards heterozygote advantage was found in one BAP marked halfsib family.The significance for forage grass breeding of reduced transmission rates of Donor Parent alleles in early back-cross generations especially through the male gametes is discussed.  相似文献
