Viburnum is an important genus in horticulture with great ornamental value. Interspecific hybridisations between Viburnum species are made with the aim to enlarge the assortment with more diverse flower colours. However, interspecific pre- and postzygotic crossing barriers hamper the success of breeding efforts. In this study we evaluated the occurrence of interspecific barriers in the cross between...
In maize hybrid seed production, some hybrid seed in the field must be harvested before reaching physiological maturity because of the potential damage from early fall frosts. However, early harvesting can result in poor quality and low vigor of seeds. To elucidate the genetic basis of seed vigor at different stages of maturity, the seeds of a set of recombinant inbred line (RIL) populations at three...
The effect of two different nitrogen treatments on five traits associated with yield and nutrient composition of stover were evaluated using a set of 213 F2:3 families derived from two elite inbred lines Huang-C and Xu178. Evaluation of the phenotypes expressed under the two nitrogen conditions showed that low nitrogen conditions could increase acid detergent fiber (ADF) and neutral detergent fiber...
Plant height is an important trait for maize breeding because it is related to planting density and lodging resistance. It is influenced by many qualitative genes and quantitative trait loci (QTL). In this study, the genetic basis of plant height and its related traits were dissected, using simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers with a maize population of 294 recombinant inbred lines (RIL). Correlation...
