Aims: For proposing a statistical approach to select of the most promising genotypes for peanut breeding program. Place and Duration of Study: Twenty peanut genotypes were evaluated at Matana Agricultural Station Research, Luxor governorate, Egypt during 2018 and 2019. Study Design: In a randomized complete block design with three replications. Methodology: Analysis of variance (ANOVA), correlation coefficients, factor analysis, cluster method and some genetic parameters for seed yield and its components were calculated. Results: Results revealed that significant differences among the tested genotypes for the eight studied traits. Correlation coefficients indicated that seed yield was significantly correlated with all traits except plant height. Meanwhile, factor analysis was used to remove multi-collinearity problems, to simplify the complex relationships and to reduce variables number (into three extracted factors). 100-seed weight, number of branches/plant, 100-pod weight and seed oil content (%) with seed yield/plant traits which present in the 1st factor explained 42.039% of the total variance and recorded high heritability coupled with high genetic advance %. ANOVA results for factor scores obtained (native best multi-traits data) revealed that genotypes varied significantly. Conclusion: Factor and cluster analysis agreed in grouping Ismailia 2, Intr. 267, Intr. 182, Intr. 332 and Sohag 107 to be promising genotypes to increase peanut seed yield, whereas genotypes Intr. 504 and intr. 510 could be utilized to increase peanut seed oil content %. Then, the utilization of a factor score as a variable in ANOVA analysis was more appropriate rather than the original data. Consequently, factor scores (as a native data) would be more agreeable to selection and can be employed in plant breeding programs.

AbstractSimultaneously identify superior performing in terms of seed yield and seed oil content and broad adaptation across a wide range of different environments is an important target for sunflower breeder. So, 10 sunflower genotypes were evaluated across the eight various environments created by sowing at four locations i. e. Kafr El Hamam/ Sharkia, Shandaweel /Sohag, Tag El Ezz/ Dakahlia and Al Arish/ North Sinai Agricultural Research Stations, Agricultural Research Center (ARC), Egypt during the two successive summer seasons 2018 and 2019 using randomized complete block designs with four replications in each environment. Results showed that mean squares due to environments, genotypes and their interaction were highly significant for seed yield and seed oil content. Most stability approaches revealed that high performing stable genotypes were L240 for seed yield and Sakha 53, L110 and L235 for seed oil content under divergent environments. Hence, these four stable sunflower genotypes could be behaved as good breeding materials stock for sunflower improvement.

SUMMARYThe response of sesame to fertilizer was studied in 11 trials at four different sites, in which phosphorus was applied at rates from 0 to 26 kg ha−1 to the seed bed and nitrogen at rates from 0 to 60 kg ha−1 after thinning. Yield responses, found only to the main effects of nitrogen and phosphorus, are discussed in relation to soil type and previous cropping history of the sites and used to calculate gross cash returns from fertilizer use. Seed oil content was affected by environment, but responses to nitrogen and phosphorus were inconsistent.

<p>ABSTRAK</p><p>Penelitian lapang dilakukan di Kebun Percobaan Balai PenelitianTanaman Tembakau dan Serat di Muktiharjo, Pati dengan tekstur tanah liatberdebu mulai tahun 2007 sampai 2009. Penelitian bertujuan untukmengetahui respon pengairan terhadap produksi dan kadar minyak bijijarak pagar. Jarak pagar ditanam pada bulan Februari 2007. Percobaanmenggunakan rancangan petak berjalur dengan tiga ulangan yang terdiridari dua faktor, yaitu faktor pertama : provenan IP-1A, IP-1M, dan IP-1P,dan faktor kedua yaitu kriteria pengairan : kontrol (tanpa pengairan),pengairan saat kandungan air tanah mencapai 35, 50, dan 65%. Pengairandiberikan selama musim kemarau. Pemangkasan pertama dilakukan padatahun II yaitu awal musim hujan (September 2008). Hasil penelitianmenunjukkan bahwa tambahan pengairan hanya diperlukan pada tahunpertama. Produksi biji jarak pagar tidak dipengaruhi oleh irigasi mulaitahun II sehingga tanaman jarak pagar tidak memerlukan tambahanpengairan selama musim kemarau dan dapat beradaptasi pada berbagaiketersediaan air tanah terutama pada daerah dengan curah hujan tahunan1.200-1.500 mm. Produksi biji IP-1P pada tahun I mencapai 258,7 kg/halebih tinggi dibanding IP-1A yaitu 148,11 kg/ha bila diairi saat kandunganair tanah 65%. Bila tidak diairi atau pengairan terbatas, produksi biji IP-1Adan IP-1P akan menurun masing-masing 37-59 dan 17-31%. Pada berbagaiperlakuan pengairan pada tahun II dan III, kisaran produksi biji 842-975dan 818-966 kg/ha. Pada tahun II, tanaman IP-1P menghasilkan produksibiji tertinggi (1.369 kg/ha) dibanding IP-1A (737 kg/ha) dan IP-1M (631kg/ha). Selanjutnya pada tahun III, produksi biji IP-1P (1.268 kg/ha) tetaplebih unggul dibanding IP-1A (902 kg/ha) dan IP-1M (416 kg/ha).Keunggulan IP-1P dibanding provenan lainnya adalah kemampuannyayang lebih tinggi dalam membentuk cabang produktif dan buah. Tambahanpengairan selama musim kemarau pada tahun I selain untuk meningkatkanproduksi biji juga meningkatkan kandungan minyak biji IP-1A dari 27,26menjadi 29,89% dan IP-1P dari 26,54 menjadi 30,05%. Selanjutnya padatahun II, tambahan pengairan sampai kandungan air tanah 50% tidakmempengaruhi kandungan minyak biji IP-1A, IP-1M, dan IP-1P.</p><p>Kata kunci: Jarak pagar, ketersediaan air tanah, pengairan, produksi biji,kandungan minyak biji</p><p>ABSTRACT</p><p>Effects of irrigation on seed production and oil content ofthree provenances of physic nut (Jatropha curcas L.)</p><p>A field experiment was conducted at the experiment station ofIndonesian Tobacco and Fiber Crops Research Institute in Muktiharjo, Pation a soil texture of silty clay for three years from 2007 to 2009. Theexperiment aimed to investigate the response of irrigation on productionand oil content of jatropha seed. Jatropha was planted in February 2007.The experiment used a striped plot design with three replicates. Itconsisted of two factors, firstly three provenances : IP-1A, IP-1M, and IP-1P, and secondly four irrigation levels : control (no irrigation), irrigationwhen available soil water content reached 35, 50, and 65%. Irrigation wasapplied during the dry season. The first pruning was done in the secondyear during rainy season (September 2008). The results showed thatsupplementary irrigation was needed only in the first year. The productionof jatropha seeds was not affected by irrigation from the second year on.The plants did not require additional irrigation during the dry season andthey well adapted to different soil available water, especially in areas withannual rainfall of 1,200-1,500 mm. When no irrigation supply or underinsufficient moisture content, the seed yield of IP-1A and IP-1P decreasedby 37-59 and 17-31%. In the second and third years, seed production of allirrigation treatments ranged from 842-975 and about 818-966 kg/ha. IP-1Pproduced the highest seed yield (1,369 kg/ha) compared to IP-1A (737kg/ha) and IP-1M (631 kg/ha) second year. In the third year, seedproduction of IP-1P was 1,268 kg/ha which was still more superior thanIP-1A (902 kg/ha) and IP-1M (416 kg/ha). Compared to the other twoprovenances, IP-1P was higher ability in producing productive branchesand fruits. In addition to increase in seed production, supplementaryirrigation during the dry season in the first year also increased seed oilcontent from 27.26 to 29.89% for IP-1A and from 26.54 to 30.05% for IP-1P. Furthermore, in the second year an additional irrigation to soilavailable water of 50% did not affect the seed oil content of allprovenances.</p><p>Key words: Jatropha curcas L., soil available water, irrigation, seedyield, seed oil content</p>

The most important criteria for introducing new confectionary hybrids into the production is high protein yield. Path coefficient analysis was used to obtain information on direct and indirect effects of studied traits (seed oil content, kernel oil content, seed yield, kernel protein content, mass of 1000 seeds, kernel ratio and hull ratio) on protein yield. The research was conducted during three vegetation seasons, on 22 experimental confectionary sunflower hybrids created in the breeding program at the Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops. Strong and very strong correlations were found among the largest number of examined traits. A weak negative interdependence was determined between kernel oil content, kernel protein content, mass of 1000 seeds, hull ratio, and protein yield using the analysis of simple correlation coefficients. Positive but weak correlation was determined between protein yield and seed oil content, and kernel ratio. Very strong positive correlation was determined between protein yield and seed yield (0.468**). The seed oil content had a very strong direct negative effect on protein yield (DE=-0.734**). The mass of 1000 seeds had a weak negative direct effect on protein yield. Kernel protein content and kernel oil content demonstrated a weak direct positive effect on protein yield. Path coefficient analysis of protein yield showed a very strong positive direct effect of kernel ratio (DE=1.340**), seed yield (DE=0.657**) and hull ratio (DE=0.992*). These findings confirm the effect of seed yield, kernel ratio, and hull ratio on protein yield, and their importance as the selection criteria in confectionary sunflower breeding.

The agronomic performance of inter-cultivar hybrids of Brassica rapa L. was studied in crosses between four B. rapa cultivars. Six reciprocal hybrid combinations were produced by hand pollination in the greenhouse. Hybrids and their parents were tested in replicated yield tests for 3 yr. An average, over all hybrid combinations, of 13% heterosis for seed yield was observed. Heterosis for seed yield was greatest in crosses between genetically diverse cultivars, which agrees with classical theories on heterosis. There were also significant differences in yield of reciprocal F1 combinations. Seed oil content was not heterotic. The results of this study indicated that the level of heterosis of seed yield in crosses between B. rapa cultivars adapted for production in western Canada is sufficient to warrant the development of a suitable pollination control system for hybrid B. rapa production. Key words:Brassica rapa, Brassica campestris, inter-cultivar hybrids, seed yield, heterosis

Cotton is the backbone of Pakistan’s economy. More than half of the export of Pakistan depends on cotton and cotton-based products. Morphological quantitative traits are important for estimation of cotton yield. In this regard, a study was conducted to evaluate the morphological responses on cotton crop at experimental farm of MNS-University of Agricultural Multan during the year 2019-2020. Four cotton varieties with different time windows (early, normal and late) were sown in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) in a split plot arrangement. Correlation and regression studies of cultivars of Gossypium and Malvaceae were analyzed for quantitative characters. Result revealed that significantly positive correlation of boll weight (r=0.211), seed volume (r=0.138), seed oil content (r=0.020) and negatively correlation with seed index (r= -0.005) was displayed by all traits with seed cotton yield, which showed that seed cotton yield was greatly influenced by all characters. Regression coefficients showed that a unit increase in seed index (b=71.375), seed volume (b=120.326), seed oil content (b=4.954) resulted into a proportional increased in seed cotton yield. In future, this study will helpful in selection program for improvement of cotton varieties towards the yield.
