Iron deficiency chlorosis (FeDC) can cause significant seed yield reduction in dry beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) grown on high-pH calcareous soils. To determine the effects of FeDC on seed yield, and the effect of Fe-spray as a correction factor for FeDC, 22 breeding lines/cultivars were planted on high-pH (8.0), calcareous (3.2–3.5 calcium carbonate equivalent), and low-Fe (1.8–4.2 ppm DTPA) sandy clay loam Tripp soils at Mitchell and Scottsbluff in western Nebraska. A split-plot design was used with Fe treatments as main plots and breeding lines/cultivars as subplots. Three foliar sprays of Fe-EDDHA (2.4 kg·ha–1) were applied at V4, R5, and R7 dry bean growth stages, during 1996 and 1997. Leaf chlorosis was measured simultaneously by using a Minolta Chroma-meter (CIE L* a* b* color space system), a Minolta Chlorophyll-meter (chlorophyll content index), and by visual ratings (1 = normal green to 5 = severe chlorosis). In 1996 no significant Fe-spray × line interaction (P = 0.776) and Fe-spray effect (P = 0.884) on seed yield was observed. Breeding lines showed significant differences in seed yield (P = 0.0001) with WM2-96-5 being the highest-yielding line (4047 kg·ha–1). In 1997 a significant Fe spray × line interaction (P = 0.029) was observed. The cultivar Chase without Fe spray (3375 kg·ha–1), and lines WM2-96-5 (3281 kg·ha–1), WM2-96-8 (3171 kg·ha–1) with Fe spray were the highest yielding entries under those treatments. Differences in visual ratings after the third Fe spray in 1997 were significant (P = 0.004) for Fe spray × line interaction. In 1996 visual ratings were different only for breeding lines. Chlorophyll content index showed a significant Fe spray × line interaction after the second Fe spray (P = 0.022) and after the third Fe spray (P = 0.0003) in 1997.

To determine the association between genetic parameters and morphological traits in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) genotypes, a field experiment was conducted with 49 different landrace, breeding lines and cultivated chickpea genotypes using a 7?7 lattice square design with 2 replications in the 2012-2013 growing season. Genetic parameters including genetic, environmental and phenotypic variances; coefficients of variation; heritability; correlation coefficients; factor analysis and path coefficients were estimated, and cluster analysis was performed. High heritability values observed in measured traits indicating that these traits are controlled mainly by additive genes and that selection of such traits may be effective for improving seed yield. Number of seeds per plant, 100-seed weight and plant biomass had a positive direct effect on seed yield. These traits also had positive and highly significant phenotypic correlations with seed yield. Using principal component (PC) analysis, the first three PCs with eigenvalues more than 1 contributed 70.94% of the variability among accessions. The germplasm were grouped into 3 clusters. Each cluster had some specific characteristics of its own and the cluster I was clearly separated from cluster II and III. Overall the results, it can be concluded that seed yield in chickpea can be improved by selecting an ideotype having greater number of seeds per plant, 100-seed weight and plant biomass.

<p>Research on the introduction of quinoa in Italy is currently lacking. The present research was aimed at identifying the correct sowing period. Field experiment was consucted in Cesa, Tuscany, in 2017. Two new breeding lines coded as DISPAA-Q42 and DISPAA-Q47-CB were utilized. Three sowing dates (SD) were implemented: February 23; March 17 and April 27. Results showed that the most successful SD was February 23. A significant decrease in both seed yield and a delay in phenological phases, relating to plant maturation and flowering was associated with the sequential delay in SD in both lines. Results also showed a significant effect of lines on yield, true-leaf stage development, flower development and maturity. Only DISPAA-Q42 was considered suitable for cultivation in the Tuscan environment. DISPAA-Q47-CB was the more susceptible line, due to the sequential delay in SD and delayed plant maturation. No effect between lines was evident for protein and saponin content. The present study clearly shows the potential for the successful cultivation of quinoa in Central Italy, and highlights the necessity of taking into consideration both breeding lines and SD in order to accomplish this goal.</p>

Main Effects

This study was planned with the purpose of evaluating the drought tolerance of advanced breeding lines of chickpea in natural field conditions. Two methods were employed to impose field conditions; the first: simulating drought stress by growing chickpea genotypes at five rainfed areas, with Faisalabad as the non-stressed control environment; and the second: planting chickpea genotypes in spring to simulate a drought stress environment, with winter-sowing serving as the non-stressed environment. Additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) and generalized linear models (GLM) models were both found to be equally effective in extracting main effects in the rainfed experiment. Results demonstrated that environment influenced seed yield, number of primary and secondary branches, number of pods, and number of seeds most predominantly; however, genotype was the main source of variation in 100 seed weight and plant height. The GGE biplot showed that Faisalabad, Kallur Kot, and Bhakkar were contributing the most in the GEI, respectively, while Bahawalpur, Bhawana, and Karor were relatively stable environments, respectively. Faisalabad was the most, and Bhakkar the least productive in terms of seed yield. The best genotypes to grow in non-stressed environments were CH39/08, CH40/09, and CH15/11, whereas CH28/07 and CH39/08 were found suitable for both conditions. CH55/09 displayed the best performance in stress conditions only. The AMMI stability and drought-tolerance indices enabled us to select genotypes with differential performance in both conditions. It is therefore concluded that the spring-sown experiment revealed a high-grade drought stress imposition on plants, and that the genotypes selected by both methods shared quite similar rankings, and also that manually computed drought-tolerance indices are also comparable for usage for better genotypic selections. This study could provide sufficient evidence for using the aforementioned as drought-tolerance evaluation methods, especially for countries and research organizations who have limited resources and funding for conducting multilocation trials, and performing sophisticated analyses on expensive software.

<p>Path Analysis of Agronomic Characters and Resistance to Pod Sucker Bug on Yield of Soybean Germplasm. Asadi. Soybean productivity was still low and unstable that commonly caused by pest attack and disease. Pod sucking insect pest is most serious pest of soybean that reduce seed production. Riptortus linearis is the most dominant pest of pod sucking bug of soybean. Planting of resistant variety is one of the biological control. To support the soybean breeding program for pod sucking pest resistance, the availability of sources of resistance genes is needed. Sources of resistance genes are obtained by evaluating and identifying of soybean germplasm. Based on soybean germplasm evaluation, it can be identified sources of resistance genes that can be used as the base material of soybean breeding programs for pod sucking pest resistance. How influence of independent variable (Xi) such as agronomic characters and resistance to pod sucking on seed yield as the dependent variable (Yi) of soybean germplasm, can be estimated by path analysis. By knowing the characters that influence the seed yield directly, so the character is going to be used for selection of soybean yield of germplasm. Based on 103 evaluations of soybean germplasm, as much as 5 accessions (B3778, B4400, B3802, B4176, and B2973) were identified as the resistant accessions, while accessions B4142, B4417 (Panderman), and the B3462 were most susceptible to pest of pod sucking bug. The seed size or pod size of soybean germplasm correlated positively and significantly on resistance to pod sucking bug. Multiple regression analysis indicated that the plant height (X3), and pod sucking bug attack (X7) significantly affect seed yield of soybean germplasm. The higher plant, the lower pod sucking bug attack, the higher soybean yield. Path analysis showed that plant high character (X3) affected the seed yield of soybean germplasm directly, indicating that the plant high character can be used for the selection of seed yield of soybean germplasm. Number of pods per plant (X5) by the effect of plant high (X3) affects the grain yield (Y) of soybean germplasm indirectly.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Abstrak</strong></p><p>Produktivitas kedelai yang masih rendah dan beragam disebabkan antara lain oleh masih tingginya serangan hama dan penyakit. Pengisap polong tergolong hama utama yang cukup serius mempengaruhi hasil kedelai. Reptortus linearis merupakan hama yang paling dominan menyerang tanaman kedelai. Penggunaan varietas tahan merupakan salah satu cara pengendalian yang ramah lingkungan. Untuk mendukung program pemuliaan kedelai terhadap ketahanan hama pengisap polong, ketersediaan sumber gen tahan sangat diperlukan. Sumber gen tahan diperoleh dengan cara mengevaluasi dan mengidentifikasi sejumlah plasma nutfah kedelai yang tersedia. Dari hasil evaluasi diharapkan akan teridentifikasi sumber gen tahan yang dapat digunakan sebagai bahan dasar untuk program pemuliaan kedelai terhadap ketahanan hama pengisap polong. Sebarapa jauh pengaruh karakter agronomi dan ketahanan terhadap hama pengisap polong sebagai variabel bebas (Xi) terhadap hasil biji sebagai variabel tak bebas (Yi) pada plasma nutfah kedelai dapat diketahui melalui analisis lintasan. Dengan mengetahui karakter yang berpengaruh langsung terhadap hasil, maka karakter tersebut dapat digunakan untuk seleksi terhadap hasil kedelai. Berdasarkan hasil evaluasi 103 plasma nutfah kedelai, sebanyak lima aksesi telah diidentifikasi (B3778, B4400, B3802, B4176, dan B2973) sebagai aksesi yang tahan, sedangkan aksesi B4142, B4417 (Panderman), dan B3462 termasuk paling rentan terhadap hama pengisap polong. Ukuran biji yang dicerminkan oleh besarnya polong berkorelasi positif dan nyata dengan kerentanan terhadap hama pengisap polong. Analisis regresi berganda mengindikasikan bahwa tinggi tanaman (X3) dan tingkat serangan hama pengisap polong (X7) berpengaruh nyata terhadap hasil biji kedelai. Semakin tinggi tanaman dan semakin rendah serangan hama pengisap polong maka semakin tinggi hasil. Analisis sidik lintas menunjukkan bahwa sumbangan tinggi tanaman (X3) besar dalam menentukan hasil (Y). Artinya, karakter tinggi tanaman dapat digunakan untuk seleksi terhadap hasil biji kedelai. Jumlah polong per tanaman (X5) tidak langsung menentukan hasil biji (Y) kedelai dengan adanya peran tinggi tanaman (X3).</p>

Analysis Of Stability

In the present study, AMMI approaches were used to analyse the genotype x environment interactions and stability under targeted environments. The analysis of stability parameters of seed yield/plant in 25 genotypes of urdbean (Vigna mungo L,) indicated that six genotypes namely, Mash 479, PLU 499-52, PU19, PLU-4158, Pant 31 and IPU2-43 showed regression coefficient greater than unity (b-1) with non-significant S2di values and higher mean values than population mean which exhibited their stability and adaptation to specific favorable environment only. Three genotypes, PU99, No. 13/11 and No.40 indicated that regression coefficient less than unity with higher mean values than population mean with non-significant deviation from the regression coefficient (S2di) and recommended for unfavorable environments. Mash 338 and IPU 96-1 are the most stable genotypes across the environments for seed yield/plant and 1000 seed weight, respectively. Environmental indices indicated that environment (E1) and environment (E2) were the most favorable for number of primary branches/plants, days to 50% flowering, plant height and seed yield/plant, whereas environment (E3) was favorable for pod length and number of seeds/pod. AMMI 1 model exhibited that E1 and E2 were the clustered in the same group and exhibited similar type of interaction for seed yield/plant. Genotypes, PLU4158, IPU96-1, Mash479, PLU499-52 and IPU2-43 exhibited high IPCA 1 scores along with high population mean. Based on AMMI 2 model, PLU4158, IPU96-1 and IPU96-6 exhibited high IPCA scores. The selected genotypes may be utilized in Vigna mungo improvement programme in targeted location with true type of breeding lines.

An experiment was carried out involving twenty three advanced breeding lines along with two checks M 35-1 and Muguthi during rabi season 2012-13 at four locations. Observations were recorded on 10 different characters viz., plant height (cm), stem diameter (cm), ear head length (cm), ear head diameter (cm), days to 50 per cent flowering, days to maturity, 100 seed weight (g), fodder yield per plot (kg), seed yield per plot (kg), and lodging percentage. The pooled analysis of variance revealed that mean sum of squares due to genotypes was significant for ear head diameter, days to 50 per cent flowering, days to maturity and fodder yield, indicating presence of considerable amount of variability in the genotypes. The mean sum of square due to environment + (genotypes x environment) was significant for plant height, ear head length (cm), ear head diameter (cm), days to 50 per cent flowering, fodder yield per plot (kg), seed yield per plot (kg), and lodging percentage characters except stem diameter, days to maturity and 100 seed yield. On the basis of stability parameters a four genotypes viz., GS-6 (2364 kg/ha), GS-16 (2454 kg/ha), GS-22(2775 kg/ha) and GS-23(2978 kg/ha) were found most stable over Gulbarga, Raichur, Bellary and Malnoor environments of Hyderabad Karnataka region.
