Identification of factors influencing bixin content and seed yield is an important breeding aspect, considering the economic importance of annatto for selection of elite genotypes based on morphological traits. Thirty-one trees plus were selected for the study, and sixteen quantitative traits were recorded for two years (2021 and 2022) to understand their association with bixin content and seed yield. Annatto has bivalve pods; however, trivalve pods were also observed during the study. A positive and significant association (r = 0.65) between bixin content and seed yield was observed from the correlation analysis. The study revealed that bixin content was highly correlated and influenced directly by the number of primary and secondary branches and hundred seed weight, while tree height, basal diameter, and the number of primary and secondary branches exhibit a significantly positive direct effect on seed yield, suggesting these traits as a reliable morphological marker for selecting highly productive genotypes. The thirty-one plus trees were grouped through hierarchical clustering into six clusters, with maximum bixin content and seed yield in Cluster I and Cluster III. The genotypes TNBi 0020, TNBi 0021, TNBi 0022, TNBi 0023, TNBi 0024 and TNBi 0037 can be utilized for mass multiplication and popularization for commercial cultivation of Bixa orellana.","PeriodicalId":11638,"journal":{"name":"ELECTRONIC JOURNAL OF PLANT BREEDING","volume":"120 47","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141665545","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

DNA fingerprinting is becoming an important molecular marker approach because of its wide application in varietal protection, classification, and conflict settlement. In the present study, genetic diversity and variability among the 11 rice varieties of Manipur at the molecular level was studied using 42 SSR markers. The genotypic data of the SSR markers revealed four sub-populations. Cluster analysis indicated the close similarity between RC Maniphou 12 and RC Maniphou 15. To create a DNA fingerprinting database for 11 rice varieties, three separate multiplex PCR systems using different combinations of 11 polymorphic SSR markers based on amplicon size were successfully developed . These were able to distinguish the distinctness of all the eleven released rice varieties.","PeriodicalId":11638,"journal":{"name":"ELECTRONIC JOURNAL OF PLANT BREEDING","volume":"123 32","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141666527","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Statistical analysis was carried out to evaluate genotype × environment interaction using two different approaches, namely, additive main effect, and their multiplicative interaction model (AMMI) and genotype plus genotype by environment interaction (GGE) biplot for seed yield of mustard genotypes. AMMI ANOVA showed that genotype and environment accounted for 11.46% and 47.50% of the variation respectively, where GEI captured 36.57% of the variation for seed yield. The AMMI model and GGE biplots showed that genotype RGIN-73 was the highest yielding genotype to a specific environment but DRWR-15-9 was found to be well stable with good yielding in all environments.","PeriodicalId":11638,"journal":{"name":"ELECTRONIC JOURNAL OF PLANT BREEDING","volume":" 36","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141371931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Observations were recorded for morpho-phenetic traits, physiological parameter and disease observations of spot blotch ( Bipolaris sorokiniana (Sacc.) Shoem) was done at four crop growth stages viz. 85 DAS, 92 DAS, 99 DAS and 106 DAS. The mean value of chlorophyll index (CI) indicated gradual decline of CI with advancement in growth stages. Highest value of AUCIDC was shown by ESWYT-50 (128.33), while the lowest value was exhibited by ESWYT-25 (22.75). Mean value of disease severity in the different growth stages indicated gradual increase in disease severity along with advancement in growth stages. Correlation study among AUDPC, AUCIDC along with three morpho-phenotypic traits revealed significant and positive correlation between AUDPC and AUCIDC. The D 2 analysis distributed 50 wheat genotypes into six clusters. The genotypes having lower selection index values were ESWYT-36, ESWYT-40, ESWYT-22, ESWYT-35, ESWYT-18, ESWYT-10, and ESWYT-1, which were also distributed in different divergent clusters as per D 2 analysis. Thus, they could be used as spot blotch resistant genotypes with early flowering type along with high yield. All the traits exhibited low PCV and GCV values indicating the presence of common parents in the ancestry of the wheat genotypes.","PeriodicalId":11638,"journal":{"name":"ELECTRONIC JOURNAL OF PLANT BREEDING","volume":" 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141372290","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
