To select watermelon starting materials by major productive indicators (yield, average marketable fruit weight) for the breeding of genotypes suitable for intensive and organic cultivation technologies. Materials and Methods. Collection watermelon accessions were studied: 101 cultivars and lines from 9 countries. Cv. ‘Maks Plus’ (Ukraine) was taken as the control accession. The following parameters were determined: Sgi – genotype’s stability, bi – regression coefficient of the genotype's response to changing conditions (plasticity), GBVi – genotype’s breeding value. Plants were grown by traditional technology in the Forest-Steppe of Ukraine (DSTU 3805-98, 1998; DSTU 5045:2008, 2008). Watermelon plants were fertilized and protected in compliance with scientific and practical recommendations. The study was conducted in accordance with routine methods of breeding. Kilchevskiy & Khotylyova’s method, 1997 was used to estimate the genotypes’ stability parameters. The coefficient of environmental plasticity (bi) was calculated by Eberhart & Russel algorithm, 1966.

The adaptive potential of the watermelon collection was evaluated for the following characteristics: total and marketable yields and average marketable fruit weight. The following parameters were determined: bi - coefficient of regression of the genotype’s response to changes in conditions (plasticity), Sgi – genotype’s stability, and GBVi – genotype’s breeding value of the watermelon collection. We established the amplitudes and ranges of variation of the yield indicators. By the coefficient of environmental plasticity bi, the collection watermelon accessions were grouped as showing low, medium or high environmental plasticity for different traits. The collection accessions were categorized as follows: 1 - intensive genotypes with enhanced responses to growing conditions; 2 - with medium environmental plasticity; 3 - highly plastic, which slightly respond to changes in growing conditions. For breeding for various traits, we identified accessions of practical value in terms of stability parameters and genotype’s breeding value (GBVi) for intensive and organic cultivation technologies. Taking into account the environmental variability parameters in collection watermelon accessions to be used in the breeding of cultivars and hybrids suitable for intensive technologies, we selected accessions with enhanced responses to changing growing conditions, which also consistently yielded sufficiently high.

To analyze the dependence of the corn grain filling intensity and moisture-yielding ability of corn grain on morphological and economic characteristics in each ripeness group of corn lines. Material and Methods. The study was carried out in the Laboratory of Introduction and Preservation of Plant Genetic Resources and the Laboratory of Corn Breeding and Seed Production of the Yuriev Plant Production Institute of NAAS in 2017-2019. The accessions were sown by the standard method in two-row plots of 9.8 m2 in three replications. The reference accessions were placed after every 20 plots: early ripening - F2 line; medium-early – UKh 52; medium-ripening - DS 103, UKhS 126, and SO 125; medium-late - А 619, Kharkivska 215, and KhА 408. During the growing period, the accessions were evaluated in the field 24 times for typicality. In the laboratory, the grain moisture was determined thermogravimetrically four times for each line during its ripening period, every ten days, starting on day 30 after pollination. For comparison, the moisture content in grain was also determined in the field using an AVD 6100 needle moisture meter for wood. Results and Discussion. Lines with the maximum yield of moisture per day were selected: six medium-early lines (LPL 79 A, UKhK 5, UChS 85, UKhK 590, UChS 85, SL 73-85-2 (Ukraine), СО 190 (Canada), and B 267 (Russia)), 24 medium-ripening lines (of them, 20 lines were bred in Ukraine; one line is from Russia (B 321), and three lines are from the USA (W 83, A 619, and B 143)), and 25 medium-late lines (20 Ukrainian lines (UKhK 472, KhLH 78, LNAU 18, ОV 1248, UKh 804, and others), two Russian lines, 1 Kazakhstanian line, and 1 line from the USA). We noted the dependences of the grain filling intensity, moisture release during ripening, and grain drying rate on morphobiological and so-called \"specific\" characteristics (peduncle length, sheath number, density of sheath adhesion to the ear, grain consistency). Corn lines with intensive grain filling and a set of valuable economic features were distinguished. Having studied inbred corn lines, we found a strong positive correlation between dry matter accumulation and performance (r = 0.90) and moderate positive correlations between dry matter accumulation and kernel number per ear (r = 0.45), between dry matter accumulation and plant height (r = 0.40), and between dry matter accumulation and ear attachment height (r = 0.39). Conclusions. The best lines were selected in each group of ripeness according to the intensity of moisture egress from grain and valuable economic characteristics. In the medium-early group, eight best lines were selected. However, only 6 lines had good economic characteristics. Most of the medium-early lines were superior to the reference accession, UKh 52, in terms of performance and thousand kernel weight. In the medium-ripening group, 24 best lines were selected in comparison with UChS 126 (reference accession).","PeriodicalId":293268,"journal":{"name":"Plant Breeding and Seed Production","volume":"122 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139154709","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}

Valuable economic characteristics of confectionery sunflowers are significantly affected by weather. In particular, 39% of the seed yield variability is determined by weather conditions; the thousand seed weight variability - by 32%; the huskness variability- by 26%; the the 3.8+ fraction proportion variability - by 41%; and the protein content variability - by 12%. A review of literature on elements of the confectionary sunflower cultivation technology allowed us to identify major factors of the agricultural technology that affect such commercially important characteristics as yield and quality of seeds. These are basic tillage, optimal doses of mineral fertilizers, and plant density. An increase in plant density augments the yields of confectionary genotypes. However, in thin sowing (up to 20,000 plants/ha), the yield of the commercially important large fraction of seeds is raised. Manufacturers prefer cultivars and hybrids with both large thousand seed weights and economically profitable yields. Most researchers agree that seed size decreases as plant density is increased, and therefore it is desirable to aim for a plant density in the field that can produce sufficiently large seeds without significant reduction in the total yield. The best genotypes combine both yield a lot and have large thousand seed weights. Regarding the effects of basic tillage options on the confectionary sunflower yields, scientists' opinions are contradictory. In the southern steppe of Ukraine, the highest yield of confectionary sunflower seeds was harvested with moldboard plowing to a depth of 25-27 cm. A positive effect of nitrogen fertilizers at doses of 120-160 kg/ha on thousand seed weight was proven by numerous studies. However, one should take into account that excessive nitrogen extends growing periods, reduces resistance to diseases, and contributes to stronger negative reactions to arid conditions. Producers of confectionery seeds try to increase the yield of large seeds. Researchers report a high yield of large (4.5+) seed fraction, which in some cases can reach 83.6%. 3.8+ seed fraction is considered economically valuable. In the northern steppe, the yield of this fraction reached 81.4%, which was ensured by selection of genotypes, moldboard plowing, and thin sowing at a density of 20,400 plants/ha. Seed specific weight is influenced by many factors, in particular, weather, varietal characteristics, and farming techniques. Specific weight increases when crops are thickened. Therefore, the economic characteristics of confectionery sunflower genotypes vary widely due to varietal features and growing conditions (weather and climate, farming).

Ten new winter bread wheat cultivars and four promising breeding lines were evaluated. Winter wheat was grown in accordance with routine techniques in the Forest-Steppe of Ukraine. The yields were harvested and recorded in accordance with methods of qualification examination of plant varieties for suitability for dissemination in Ukraine. Winter bread wheat grain quality parameters were determined by conventional methods at the Grain Quality Laboratory MIW. Results and Discussion. There was a significant variability of yield and flour quality parameters depending on the conditions of the study years. On average across the winter bread wheat cultivars and breeding lines, the highest contents of protein (14.7%) and wet gluten content (31.9%) were recorded in 2019/20, but the lowest yield (3.40 t/ha) was harvested that year. In 2020/21, on the contrary, the yield was higher (6.46 t/ha), while the sedimentation value (59 mL), protein content (11.9%), and wet gluten content (27.4%) were lower.

For sunflower production, it is vital to have cold-tolerant hybrids. An appropriate method to assess cold tolerance is a prerequisite for successful breeding of cold-tolerant sunflower. Purpose and Objectives. To evaluate cold tolerance of sunflower in the laboratory and its tolerance in the field, to identify promising combinations, to assess the capacity of a laboratory test to predict tolerance of sunflower in the field and to verify relationships of cold tolerance with ripeness group and yield. Materials and Methods. Sunflower was grown in compliance with standard farming techniques. In total, 192 F1 hybrids were obtained. The lines and hybrids were screened for ability to germinate at above-zero low temperature by laboratory test. The field tolerance at the initial stages of plant growth was determined with a 9-point scale. Relationships between the investigated parameters were analyzed by linear regression. Results and Discussion. The highest field tolerance at the initial stages of plant growth was recorded for Kh4713V, Skh777А and Skh808А lines. However, they only conferred tolerance to some of their hybrids. On the other hand, several hybrids were fairly tolerant in the field though the tolerance scores of their parental lines ranged 1 to 5 points. There was no relationship between the ‘emergence – anthesis’ period and cold tolerance. A great degree of uncertainty is associated with predicting field tolerance of sunflower from its cold tolerance assessed by laboratory test. This laboratory test cannot be used to predict field tolerance of either lines or hybrids. There was a strong positive correlation between the field tolerance and seed yield in the lines, but the correlation coefficient for the hybrids indicated no significant correlation between these parameters. Conclusions. At non-freezing low temperatures, the yield of the inbred sunflower lines was positively correlated with the field tolerance score at the early stages of plant growth and development. There was no significant difference in responses of early- and medium-ripening sunflower genotypes to cold exposure.

The field evaluations were carried out in accordance with methods of qualification examination of plant varieties. The laboratory tests included determination of the technological properties of grain, flour, and bread. Results and Discussion. By growing period, all cultivars were medium-ripening (from 90 days in cv. Volia Kharkivska) to 94 days (in cvs. Darkhliba Kharkivskyi (check cultivar), Boryviter Kharkivskyi, and Bulat Kharkivskyi). The plant height in the spring triticale cultivars was optimal (98–108 cm). Spring triticale 'Krypost Kharkivska' was the only cultivar with a plant height of 84 cm (low-stemmed triticale). The yield ranged from 4.07 to 5.00 t/ha. Cv. Svoboda Kharkivska yielded the most (5.00 t/ha or by 0.73 t/ha more than the check cultivar).

To establish peculiarities of inheritance of major breeding traits in lines - parents of winter rye hybrids; to assess the effectiveness of creating starting material for heterotic winter rye breeding based on lines - donors of purple seed color and a set of valuable economic characteristics.\u0000Material and methods. The experiments were conducted in the fields of Verkhniachka Experimental Breeding Station of the Institute of Bioenergy Crops and Sugar Beet (Verkhniachka EBS IBCSB) of NAAS of Ukraine (Umanskyi District of Cherkassy Region) in 2021-2022. The following F1 and F2 simple hybrids were studied: l.471 x l.44 and l.471 x l.4351H.4-1-22. F1 hybrids were sown manually in single-row sections of 1.5 m long by wide-row method (interrow distance = 25–30 cm) to a depth of 3–4 cm in 2020. The sowing design was as follows: female form – F1 – male form, using the female and male forms as references. All fully ripened plants were harvested with roots. For structural analysis, 25 plants of the hybrids, female and male forms were taken; they were evaluated for the following morphological features: plant height (PH), the productive shoot number (PSN), and spike length (SL). We analyzed such performance constituents as the flower number per spike (FMS), kernel number per spike (KNP), kernel weight per spike (KWS), kernel weight per plant (KWP), and thousand kernel weight (TKW).

Reliable values of Spearman's coefficients were found for 66 pairs of comparisons out of a total of 182. All the Spearman's correlation coefficients for the matrix of varieties in Hajduk were low and not significant. \u0000There was no unidirectional influence of any trait on productivity in the analysis of direct and indirect effect indicators for the varieties in the sample. Only the trait \"number of seeds per plant\" had the highest positive values of direct effect. In other cases, differences in the productivity of the varieties studied are confirmed by both positive and negative high values of direct effects. \u0000Spearman's correlation coefficients, calculated to determine agreement between path coefficient correlation matrices for varieties in the sample, were significant in only 16 pairwise comparisons (for direct and indirect effects) of the total calculated. Spearman's correlation coefficients for direct effects ranged from rs = 0.92 to rs = -0.78 and for indirect effects from rs = 0.82 to rs = -0.70 in pairwise comparisons. \u0000Thus, differences in the strength and direction of the relationships between the characteristic matrices of the samples can be assessed using Spearman's correlation coefficient. \u0000The differences in the characteristics determining the direct effects between our results and those of the cited publications can be explained both by the different genetic nature of the research objects and by the influence of meteorological conditions during the growth peri","PeriodicalId":293268,"journal":{"name":"Plant Breeding and Seed Production","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133868816","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}

To create pollinator lines - sterility fixers and their cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS)-analogues and to study their breeding and genetic features for the development of parental components of CMS-based one-sprout fodder beet hybrids. \u0000Materials and Methods. The study was carried out at the Tobacco Research Station of the National Scientific Center \"IA NAAS\" (Cherkaska Oblast, Uman) in 2013–2021. Four diploid one-sprout fodder beet populations of hybrid origin were taken as the starting material. Fodder beet lines were created by inbreeding. Analyzing crossings were carried out under paired coarse calico bags. Breeding accessions were tested in accordance with a method developed by scientists of the Institute of Bioenergy Crops and Sugar Beet of NAAS. \u0000Results and Discussion. The results indicate a fairly high frequency of pollinators - sterility fixers among the one-sprout fodder beet hybrids bred in Uman. The mean across all the initial accessions was 7.5%. One-sprout hybrids KT-7105 2хmm and KZ-1507 2хmm demonstrated the highest incidence Owen type pollinators - sterility fixers. A high level of pollen sterility was intrinsic to the CMS analogues of the O-type lines derived from the initial accessions IM-3319 2хmm and KZ-1507 2хmm (99.1% and 97.0%, respectively). The highest percentage of one-sprout seeds was recorded for the CMS analogues of the O-type lines derived from hybrid accessions KZ-1507 2хmm and KT-7105 2хmm. Fifteen best O-type lines have been selected for further breeding to obtain parental components of CMS-based experimental hybrids. \u0000Analysis showed that the beetroot yields of the majority of the CMS fodder beet lines were lower than that of the check variety. CMS IM-3319/16, CMS IM-3319/34 and CMS IM-3319/49 were the only lines that yielded at the level of the check variety (80.9–83.6 t/ha), which is attributed primarily to their genetic origin. As to the dry matter content in beetroots, only lines CMS ST-4514/27 and CMS ST-4514/39 significantly exceeded the check variety; the values of the others were similar to that of the check variety. In terms of the dry matter output, except for CMS KT-7105/7, CMS IM-3319/34 and CMS IM-3319/49, most lines were inferior to the check variety. \u0000Conclusions. We found that the portion of pollinators - CMS fixers in one-sprout populations of fodder beets of different genetic origins was 3.7–11.3%. Fifteen combinable O-type lines with pollen sterility fixing of 96.2–100% and percentage of one-sprout seeds of 96.4–99.3% have been created. Their CMS analogues have been obtained. The created breeding accessions are a valuable starting material for the selection of parental components and generation of highly productive CMS-based one-sprout fodder beet hybrids","PeriodicalId":293268,"journal":{"name":"Plant Breeding and Seed Production","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128440527","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}
