Abstract Lodging is one of the most important factors that affect wheat final yield. Emmer is a likely gene source to improve durum wheat; however, it is highly susceptible to lodging. The genetic studies of traits related to lodging in crosses of durum×emmer remains largely understudied. Here, we used progenies (six generations) derived from two crosses of durum×emmer in a generation means analysis (GMA) to determine gene action, inheritance, and genetic gain from selection in respect to plant height and its related traits. The results indicated that lodging resistance was significantly and negatively correlated with plant height and positively correlated with grain yield and mainly influenced by stem diameter. GMA results indicated that epistasis did not play an essential role in the genetic control of lodging related traits and almost the major portion of the genetic variation in these crosses resulted from additive gene actions. Also for all of the studied traits, the additive variance was higher than the dominance one. Narrow sense heritability was higher than 0.60 for most of the traits, and the genetic gain after one cycle of selection was positive for plant height and its components in both crosses. It was found that, selection in early generations may result in simultaneous reduction of plant height and increased stem diameter to improve lodging resistance in durum×emmer crossings.

Genetic parameters such as leaf relative water content, leaf chlorophyll content, plant height, above-ground biomass, harvest index, grain yield, and grain yield components of Bousselam/Mrb5 durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) cross were estimated based on generation means analysis. A, B, C, and D scaling and Chi-square (χ2) tests revealed the inadequacy of the simple additive-dominance model. This result suggests the presence of digenic epistasis for most studied traits; the duplicate epistasis was present for relative water content, above-ground biomass, and grain yield; and complementary epistasis was observed for chlorophyll content. Significant genotypic correlation coefficients appeared among grain yield, relative water content, and above-ground biomass. This suggests useful indirect selection criteria to improve simultaneously these traits, which showed significant heritability. It can be concluded that the traits investigated show a complex genetic behavior, which implies that early selection would be less efficient; therefore, it is recommended delaying the selection to advanced generations to benefit from the reduction of non-fixable genetic variation and exploit transgressive segregators due to the significant interaction additivity×additivity (i) of the gene and duplicated epistasis.
