Estimation Of Inheritance Of Some Agronomical Characters In Common Wheat By Diallel Cross Analysis, Okan Şener, Mehmet Kilinç, Tacetti̇n Yağbasanlar Jan 2000

Estimation Of Inheritance Of Some Agronomical Characters In Common Wheat By Diallel Cross Analysis, Okan Şener, Mehmet Kilinç, Tacetti̇n Yağbasanlar

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

This study was conducted to determine the genetic structure of a population which included six common wheat cultivars or lines and crosses of half diallel cultivars or lines. It was concluded that the epistatic effect was significant for a weight of 1000 grains and yield per plant, while the additive effect was significant for period of maturity, the number of spikelets per head, and the number of kernels per hear. The dominance effect was found in yield per plant. A partial dominance effect was found in other char-acters. It was found that at least 4 pairs of genes were effective …

Interactive Effects Of Vernalization, Photoperiod And Light Intensity On Reproductive Development Of Wheat Cultivars, Yasemi̇n Ekmekçi̇, Serpi̇l Terzi̇oğlu

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

The interactive effects of vernalization, photoperiod and light intensity on the length of the apex or spike and main shoot, and the diameter of the main shoot of five different wheat ( Triticum aestivumL.) cultivars (Çukurova-86, Atay-85, Lancer, Haymana-79 and Bezostaya-1) having different biological characters were investigated. The research was carried out in four independent experiments, which were the combinations of two different photoperiods (12 and 16 h.d .-1 ) and light intensities (200 µmol m -2 s -1 and 500 µmol m -2 s -1 PFD) with different vernalization periods. At the end of each photoperiod and light intensity …
