Correlation and path coefficient analysis were studied in 22 heat tolerant Recombinant Inbred Lines (RILs) of wheat. Analysis of variance revealed the significant difference among genotypes for all the characters. Suggested that there was ample scope for selection of promising RILs for yield improvement. A wide range of variability was exhibited by most of the traits. The results of correlation studies indicated that genotypic correlation coefficients were higher in magnitude than their corresponding phenotypic correlation coefficients for all the traits which indicated that association among these characters was under genetic control and indicating the preponderance of genetic variance in expression of characters. Grain yield per plant had high, significant and positive association with number of grains per spike, spike weight, spike length, canopy temperature depression, tillers per plant, grain filling period and chlorophyll content both at genotypic and phenotypic levels indicating that these traits were main yield attributing traits. Path analysis revealed that grains per spike, tillers per plant, spike length, had the highest positive direct effect on grain yield followed by flag leaf length, flag leaf width, days 50% heading, plant height, grain filling period, membrane stability and days to maturity at genotypic level. The selection of characters such as grains per spike, tillers per plant, spike length and spike weight would be helpful for further improvement in RILs of wheat.

The investigation was carried out to study the genetic parameters for quality and nutritional characters in 60 recombinant inbred lines (RIL’s) of rice. Analysis of variance revealed significant differences for all the traits. It was observed that grain yield per plant was positively significant associated with seed width, milling per cent, gelatinization temperature, amylose content and kernel breadth before cooking. Kernel length after cooking, seed width, milling per cent, amylose content and gelatinization temperature had positive direct effect on grain yield. Comprehensive examination of result revealed that the recombinant inbred lines tested for high yield in rice viz., RIL-77, 08, 99, 75, 10 and 13 were identified as superior.

Hybrid Performance

Heterosis contributes a big proportion to hybrid performance in maize, especially for grain yield. It is attractive to explore the underlying genetic architecture of hybrid performance and heterosis. Considering its complexity, different from former mapping method, we developed a series of linear mixed models incorporating multiple polygenic covariance structures to quantify the contribution of each genetic component (additive, dominance, additive-by-additive, additive-by-dominance, and dominance-by-dominance) to hybrid performance and midparent heterosis variation and to identify significant additive and non-additive (dominance and epistatic) quantitative trait loci (QTL). Here, we developed a North Carolina II population by crossing 339 recombinant inbred lines with two elite lines (Chang7-2 and Mo17), resulting in two populations of hybrids signed as Chang7-2 × recombinant inbred lines and Mo17 × recombinant inbred lines, respectively. The results of a path analysis showed that kernel number per row and hundred grain weight contributed the most to the variation of grain yield. The heritability of midparent heterosis for 10 investigated traits ranged from 0.27 to 0.81. For the 10 traits, 21 main (additive and dominance) QTL for hybrid performance and 17 dominance QTL for midparent heterosis were identified in the pooled hybrid populations with two overlapping QTL. Several of the identified QTL showed pleiotropic effects. Significant epistatic QTL were also identified and were shown to play an important role in ear height variation. Genomic selection was used to assess the influence of QTL on prediction accuracy and to explore the strategy of heterosis utilization in maize breeding. Results showed that treating significant single nucleotide polymorphisms as fixed effects in the linear mixed model could improve the prediction accuracy under prediction schemes 2 and 3. In conclusion, the different analyses all substantiated the different genetic architecture of hybrid performance and midparent heterosis in maize. Dominance contributes the highest proportion to heterosis, especially for grain yield, however, epistasis contributes the highest proportion to hybrid performance of grain yield.

Development of molecular tools for the analysis of the plant genetic contribution to rhizobial and mycorrhizal symbiosis has provided major advances in our understanding of plant-microbe interactions, and several key symbiotic genes have been identified and characterized. In order to increase the efficiency of genetic analysis in the model legume Lotus japonicus, we present here a selection of improved genetic tools. The two genetic linkage maps previously developed from an interspecific cross between L. japonicus Gifu and L. filicaulis, and an intraspecific cross between the two ecotypes L. japonicus Gifu and L. japonicus MG-20, were aligned through a set of anchor markers. Regions of linkage groups, where genetic resolution is obtained preferentially using one or the other parental combination, are highlighted. Additional genetic resolution and stabilized mapping populations were obtained in recombinant inbred lines derived by a single seed descent from the two populations. For faster mapping of new loci, a selection of reliable markers spread over the chromosome arms provides a common framework for more efficient identification of new alleles and new symbiotic loci among uncharacterized mutant lines. Combining resources from the Lotus community, map positions of a large collection of symbiotic loci are provided together with alleles and closely linked molecular markers. Altogether, this establishes a common genetic resource for Lotus spp. A web-based version will enable this resource to be curated and updated regularly.

Wheat cv. Juliana (culm length 117 cm), Manella (82 cm), Lely (80 cm), Mex-cross (69 cm) and Gaines (79 cm) were sprayed twice before flowering with 2 kg maneb/ha and twice after flowering with 1 kg benomyl/ha. Combined treatment greatly delayed the spread of Septoria tritici and S. nodorum in the crop, the flag leaf remained green longer, the grain filling period was lengthened, and the growth rate of the grain between the milk stage and the dough stage was increased from 204 to 230 kg/ha day; effects were greater in the susceptible cultivars Lely and Gaines. Increases in grain yield were 14, 23, 32, 16 and 42% for the 5 cultivars, respectively. The green area of the flag leaf accounted for 85% of the variance in grain yield. The degree of disease infection was not significantly correlated with culm length or amount of leaf area. ADDITIONAL ABSTRACT: Spraying with maneb at 2 kg/ha twice before flowering and with benomyl at 1 kg/ha twice after flowering greatly delayed the spread of Septoria tritici and S. [Leptosphaeria] nodorum and increased yields, particularly in the 2 susceptible cvs. (Abstract retrieved from CAB Abstracts by CABI’s permission)
