Evaluation Of The Agronomic Performance Of Six Varieties Of Peanut (Arachis Hypogaea L.) In The St. Felix Community Of The Coroico Township (Nor Yungas-La Paz), Viviana Marleni Quisbert Jan 2005

Evaluation Of The Agronomic Performance Of Six Varieties Of Peanut (Arachis Hypogaea L.) In The St. Felix Community Of The Coroico Township (Nor Yungas-La Paz), Viviana Marleni Quisbert

Theses and Dissertations

The peanut is an important crop in most countries due to its industrial, nutritional, and pedological potential. It grows well in subtropical areas. This study was planned based on the weather characteristics of the Yungas and the St. Felix community. A completely randomized block design with 6 treatments and 3 repetitions was used. An analysis of variance and a Tukey test were used for statistical analysis of the variables. With respect to time required for maturation, the Coloradito Palmar variety was most premature with a time of 134 days while the Local variety took 177 days to mature, which is …


Biochemical And Morphological Analyses Of The Hordeum Jubatum-Brachyantherum-Caespitosum Hybrid Complex, Gareth Roz Babbel Jun 1969

Biochemical And Morphological Analyses Of The Hordeum Jubatum-Brachyantherum-Caespitosum Hybrid Complex, Gareth Roz Babbel

Theses and Dissertations

Hordeum jubatum L., Hordeum brachyantherum nevski, and Hordeum jubatum var. caespitosum (Scribn.) Hitchc. Plants from sites in Utah and Idaho were grown and examined in order to determine whether or not hybridization with subsequent introgression occurs among the species and if so whether there is a difference in the relative amount of gene flow between the parent species H. jubatum and H. brachyantherum in different environments. Hybridizations and morphological analyses were made using standard procedures. Biochemical analyses were made by comparing paper chromatograms of leaf extracts of plant specimens. The results indicate that in Utah populations sampled, hybridization with subsequent …
