TL;DR
Key traits such as anaerobic vigor index, shoot length and coleoptile length were identified as major contributors to AG tolerance, whereas the bending moment, section modulus and panicle weight were critical for lodging resistance and yield.
Direct-seeded rice (DSR), identified as a resource efficient rice production technology often faces challenges associated with poor crop establishment and inadequate early seedling vigour. The present study assessed genetic variability and genetic parameters for early seedling vigour (ESV) and yield-related traits, and...
Fusarium crown rot (FCR) and soil salinity are major constraints to cereal establishment and productivity worldwide. Triticale (×Triticosecale Wittmack), a wheat–rye hybrid, is recognized for its broad adaptation; however, variation in FCR resistance and salinity tolerance among breeding materials remains insufficientl...
Early seedling vigour (ESV) is a crucial seed quality trait determined by rapid and uniform germination and early seedling establishment under various environmental conditions. Rapid establishment during the early stage of crop growth enhances crop’s competitive ability against weeds. In the present study, 226 3K rice...
Heat stress is one of the major abiotic constraints limiting the productivity of tomato, especially at the reproductive stage. An interspecific F2 population developed from the cross PKM 1 × Solanum pimpinellifolium L. was evaluated at the Vegetable Research Station, Palur, Tamil Nadu, India, to identify important trai...
Rice (Oryza sativa L.) grain yield is determined by multiple factors, including ideal plant architecture, appropriate flowering time and adaptability to diverse agro-climatic conditions. However, inadequate water availability in major rice-growing regions has led to increased incidence of drought and other abiotic stre...
Morphological rice seedling traits at the three-leaf stage were significantly correlated with RGM oviposition preference, as validated using natural populations and an F2 segregating population, suggesting a role in antixenosis.
