Integrated Analysis of Genetic Diversity, Trait Association and Fertility Restorer Genes (Rf3 and Rf4) in Rice

Genetic Variability, Correlation and Path Coefficient Analysis for Grain Yield and its Component Traits in Rice (Oryza sativa L.)

The present investigation was undertaken to assess genetic variability among thirty rice (Oryza sativa L.) genotypes and to identify reliable indirect selection criteria for grain yield through correlation and path coefficient analysis. Thirty genotypes were evaluated in a randomised block design with three replication...

Multivariate and genome-wide SNP-based characterization of genetic diversity and population structure in a subset of the 3 K rice (Oryza sativa L.) genome panel of germplasm accessions

The combined phenotypic and genotypic analyses revealed substantial genetic diversity and identified elite accessions for the development of high-yielding and zinc-biofortified rice cultivars.

Genetic identification and characterization of a locus controlling productive tiller number with breeding value in Chinese endemic wheat

Genetic diversity for yield and grain quality of fourth-cycle recurrent-selection progenies of black common bean

Abstract Recurrent selection methods are most suitable for improving quantitative traits in plant breeding. This study estimated genetic parameters and assessed the genetic diversity of black common bean progenies from the fourth cycle of recurrent selection. Thirty-five S0:4 progenies and four cultivars were evaluated...

DECIPHERING MOLECULAR DIVERSITY AND GENETIC RELATIONSHIPS IN BREAD WHEAT GERMPLASM USING SSR MARKERS

The observed molecular differentiation demonstrated the presence of genetically diverse material within the studied germplasm and may be useful for germplasm characterization and selection of diverse parents to broaden the genetic base of wheat breeding programmes.

Integrating multi-trait selection indices and molecular marker-based diversity analysis for identification of yield and nutritional quality traits in pearl millet ( Pennisetum glaucum L.)

Background : Pearl millet ( Pennisetum glaucum L.) is a resilient C 4 cereal adapted to arid and semiarid regions and is recognized as a climate-smart crop with considerable nutritional potential. Germplasm characterization provides a foundation for genetic improvement and marker-assisted breeding. This study...
