Abstract
This study aimed at evaluating the expected gains from selection obtained based upon direct, indirect, and index-based selection in a set of 599 bread wheat lines. The experiment was carried out at the experimental field of INRAA institute, Setif research unit (Algeria), in a Federer augmented block design including three controls. A wide range of genetic variability was observed among lines for the eleven traits assessed. The results indicated that index-based selection and selection based on grain yield expressed higher expected genetic gain than direct and indirect mono-trait-based selection. The best 15 selected lines exhibited higher grain yield than the control varieties, and they were clustered in three groups that contrasted mainly for the flag-leaf area, thousand-kernel weight, biomass, and harvest index. The index-based selection appears as a useful tool for the rapid selection of early filial generations, enriching selected breeding materials with desirable alleles and reducing the number of years required to combine these traits in elite varieties.
期刊介绍:
La Revista Facultad Nacional de Agronomía Medellín (RFNA), de la Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Sede Medellín, Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, es una publicación científica editada desde el año 1939, en formato impreso y digital y de acceso abierto desde la web —sin costo para autores y lectores—. Está orientada a investigadores que crean conocimiento disciplinar y multidisciplinar que articula la ciencia y la tecnología para hacer más productivo el campo a nivel empresarial y de economía campesina. La Revista tiene como objetivo divulgar resultados de investigación mediante artículos originales, inéditos y arbitrados (peer review) de carácter científico que respondan a preguntas específicas y que proporcionen sustento y pruebas a una hipótesis, en aspectos relacionados con las Ciencias Agronómicas, Producción animal, Ciencias Forestales, Ingeniería Agrícola, de Alimentos y otras afines que contribuyan a la solución de los limitantes del agro a nivel nacional, regional e internacional. La Revista recibe y publica, sin ningún costo, artículos en idioma inglés de investigación, revisión, reseñas y cartas al editor. Desde el 2017 la periodicidad de publicación es cuatrimestral, se publican tres números al año con circulación nacional e internacional, en los siguientes períodos: Enero - Abril Mayo - Agosto Septiembre - Diciembre This journal does not charge APCs or submission charges.
