The germination of seeds of two populations of Schoenus nigricans L. collected at two middle-west Sardinian sites at 5 and at 800 m above sea level were studied. Germination took place in the dark, in deionized water, at 10, 20, or 30 °C or at alternating temperatures (10:20 °C) with a 12-h thermoperiod. The tests of 60-day duration, demonstrated that 30 °C is an inhibiting temperature for the seeds here considered, while the alternating (10:20 °C) temperatures increase the germination compared with the constant (10 and 20 °C) conditions. This different behaviour was analysed with respect to the dormancy and germination of the seeds collected at the two stations. We suggest that, beyond the habitat factors, the morphological difference between the seeds are responsible for the results presently considered. The remarkable qualitative and quantitative differences concern mostly the protein content in the two seed populations. The environmental characteristics of the collecting sites of Schoenus nigricans L. are also discussed in detail.

Seed protein content is one of the most important traits controlled by quantitative trait loci (QTLs) in soybean. In this study, a Glycine soja accession (ZYD2738) was crossed with two elite cultivars Jidou 12 and Jidou 9 separately and subsequently the resulting F2:3 populations were used to identify QTLs associated with seed protein content. Protein contents in either population appeared to have a normal distribution with transgressive segregation. A total of five QTLs associated with high protein content were identified and mapped to chromosomes 2, 6, 13, 18 and 20, respectively. Of these QTLs, three (qPRO_2_1, qPRO_13_1 and qPRO_20_1) were identified in the same region in both the populations, whereas the other two (qPRO_6_1 and qPRO_18_1) were mapped in two different regions. qPRO_2_1 appears to be a novel protein QTL. qPRO_6_1, qPRO_18_1 and qPRO_20_1 had additive effects on seed protein content, while qPRO_13_1 had an over-dominant effect on seed protein content. These QTLs and their linked markers could serve as effective tools for marker-assisted selection to increase seed protein content.

Abstract. When principal component solutions are compared across two groups, a question arises whether the extracted components have the same interpretation in both populations. The problem can be approached by testing null hypotheses stating that the congruence coefficients between pairs of vectors of component loadings are equal to 1. Chan, Leung, Chan, Ho, and Yung (1999) proposed a bootstrap procedure for testing the hypothesis of perfect congruence between vectors of common factor loadings. We demonstrate that the procedure by Chan et al. is both theoretically and empirically inadequate for the application on principal components. We propose a modification of their procedure, which constructs the resampling space according to the characteristics of the principal component model. The results of a simulation study show satisfactory empirical properties of the modified procedure.
