Annual and joint analyses of variance were obtained to estimate the genetic paramet ers for yield, in order to quantify the genetic gain from selection in eight production years. The genotypic variation coefficient s indicated expressive genetic variability for improvement of the yield. On account of the high variation in annual production, it is recommended that selection should be based on the general mean of the years. In low yield years, larger heritability values, coefficients of genetic variation, index of genotypic determination, and genetic gains were estimated.","PeriodicalId":49085,"journal":{"name":"Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology","volume":"40 1","pages":"86-91"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2004-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85821440","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The mutant genotypes indicated a differentiated sensitivity to doses of the applied agents. This fact shows the effic iency of these agents in altering the genetic variability of this trait upwards (high height) as well as downwards (short height). I n general, data pointed to a decrease in the trait plant height under increasing agent doses. The largest degree of genetic divergence and dominance for the new dwarfing genes was obtained by doses 100 Gy and 0.5%, respectively, of mutagenic physical and chemical agents applied to UFRGS 10 genotype in the M 2 generation.","PeriodicalId":49085,"journal":{"name":"Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology","volume":"36 1","pages":"48-56"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2004-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74531644","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Progenies previously classified as cyst nematode (SCN) resistant and others with unknown reaction were tested, using the resistant cultivars Lideranca, and Renasscenca and the susceptibles 'Cristalina' and 'OCEPAR-4' as control. The best primer for resistance to SCN was Sat_162. Twenty segregant progenies tested with Sat_162 presented a 150 bp band for homozygous resistant genotypes and 200 bp for susceptible ones, and both for the heterozigous genotypes. Previous studies have shown that this microsatellite marker is efficient to select genotypes carrying Peking-derivative resista nce.

Since the non-environmental variation was mainly affected by isolates and cultivars, the isolate Cff CNF 4 was selected to test dry bean genotypes for disease resistance due to its high degree of pathogenicity in a set of six cultivars. Of 333 tested accessions, 12 exhibited resistance reaction, while 85 plants showed both compatible and incompatible reactions to the pathogen. The resistant plants were selected and the families derived from these plants will be further tested to confirm the resistance reaction.

Regardless of the type of epistasis and gene frequencies, the magnitudes of the epistatic components are proportional to the complexity of the polygenic system, the number of interacting genes and the magnitude of the epistatic effects relative to the deviations a (difference between the genotypic value of the homozygote with greater expression and the mean of the genotypic values of the homozygotes) and d (due to dominance).

Although GM cotton could eventually be widely adopted, six countries present larger potential benefit of its use: China, India, US and Australia, which already are using these varieties and; Brazil and Pakistan, that still area evaluating the possibility to adopt this technology. The safety of GM varieties for the environment has been one of the main concerns addressed in the case adoption of GM cotton in Brazil. The main concern is the risk of gene flow between GM cotton and its native relatives in Brazil.
