Abstract

The efficiency of the assignment of germplasm lines into heterotic groups is a prerequisite for obtaining useful heterotic patterns among germplasm lines. Therefore, this study was conducted to group lines into heterotic group besides assess the effects of both general and specific abilities. Fifteen white maize parental lines were crossed with two testers, i.e. parental line SK-12 and Single cross 120 at Agricultural Research Station in Sakha, Egypt during 2021 summer season. The resultant 30 crosses were evaluated along with four commercial hybrids in three locations during 2022. The parental inbred lines Sk5001/42, Sk5003/48, Sk5003/53, Sk5004/55 and Sk5004/56 recorded positive GCA effect on grain yield while Sk5001/41, Sk5002/46 and Sk5004/56 exhibited desirable GCA effects for earliness. Five single crosses viz. (Sk5003/53 × Sk12), (Sk5001/42 × Sk12), (Sk5004/55 × Sk12), (Sk5003/48 × Sk12) and (Sk5004/56 × Sk12) and two three way crosses (Sk5001/42 × SC.120) and (Sk5003/53 × SC.120) did not differ significantly against their respective check hybrids (SC 10 and TWC 321) though they outyield their respective checks. These hybrids could be subjected to further multi-location evaluation to assess the yield stability for commercial exploitation. Two groups of parental lines were created based on Heterotic Group Specific and General Combining Ability (HSGCA) method for grain yield trait. These groups might be employed in a breeding program to pick the best parents to make crosses in other combinations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

This investigation explores the behaviour of contact interaction between probe tips of indicators (displacement gauges) and rough engineering surfaces, in order to gain new insights into uncertainty in industrial precision gauging. The conditions of interest are contact of a mm-scale hard sphere at 0.1 to 5 N force with metallic surfaces, Rq < 2 mm. The motivation arises from the growing demand of modern industries for higher machining processes and for finer inspection capabilities. In the near future, such a demand is likely to require careful analyses of the measurement error budget of these instruments with a greater consideration of the potential errors induced by the complex behaviour of contact, which is currently assumed to be negligible. A preliminary experimental study was carried out on an existing test-rig of limited accuracy. It raised several concerns related to the effects of surface roughness and material on the resulting contact deflection at the load regimes of indicators’ probes. It stimulated the need for more reliable data. So, a new test-rig of advanced capabilities was designed to perform a comprehensive study of a wider range of contact parameters to simulate real situations of industrial gauging processes. This advanced study confirms the consistent effects of roughness, material and probe tip size not only on the surface deflections but also on the probe rotations. Roughness variability across the same surface caused some inconsistencies in the deflection behaviour and repeatability, and surface contamination gave additional unsystematic effects on these relations. Re-establishing contact on the same position of a contaminated surface appeared to contribute errors of the order of those of a clean surface. Based on the results of this investigation, systematic errors of contact can exceed the 1 mm level with uncertainty up to at least 0.4 mm in many measurement processes with precision indicators. Such figures reveal that the contact cannot any longer be considered a negligible source of errors, and precision metrology must account for these induced errors in the budget of displacement gauges.

Abstract

The phenomenon of heterosis has provided the most important genetic tools for crop yield improvement. Identification of specific parental combinations capable of producing the highest level of heterotic effects in F1 has immense value for commercial exploitation of heterosis. The objective of this study was to assess the combining ability variances and superiority in twenty one combinations developed by crossing seven maize (Zea mays L.) inbred lines in half diallel fashion design. The resulting 21 hybrids, along with two check hybrids, were evaluated in Randomised Complete Block Design, in three locations during 2022 season in Egypt. The results showed that both additive and non-additive gene actions were important in controlling all the measured traits. The General Combining Ability (GCA) variance was found to be greater than Specific Combining Ability (SCA) variance, indicating predominance of additive and additive by additive gene effects in the inheritance for all studied traits. Cross P2xP3 significantly out yielded the best check (SC. 168) for the grain yield trait. The parental inbred lines, P1, P2 and P3, possessed significant desirable (GCA) effects for the grain yield trait. The cross combinations (P1xP5),(P2xP7), (P3xP7),(P4xP5),(P4xP6) and (P6xP7) showed significant positive sca effects for grain yield. Cross P2xP3 (10.32**) obtained superiority (%) relative to the check hybrid SC.168 for grain yield. On the other hand, five crosses viz. (P1xP3), (P1xP5), (P2xP3), (P2xP5) and (P3xP5) expressed positive superiority (%) over the check hybrid SC.3444 for same trait. Thus, these crosses could be recommended to be released as commercial hybrids by Maize Research Programme after further evaluation and testing in multi-locations in Egypt. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Slow growth rate of tissue-cultured banana seedling's performance and high post-transplanting mortality rate are commonly due to low rate mineral content in the soil, climate change and soil-borne disease. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of potassium silicate (K2SiO3) on growth, physio-biochemical changes on Berangan banana seedlings grown under tropical climate conditions. The experiment was conducted under a rain shelter and all treatments were arranged in a randomized complete block (RCBD) design. The plants were soil drenched with K2SiO3 at constant 0.0901 M by 25 mL/plant after two weeks of transplanting with different frequencies application: 0-day interval (DI) served as control, 7 DI (12×), 15 DI (6×) and 30 DI (3×) throughout three months experimental period. Results showed that K2SiO3 (13% SiO2, 20% K2O) applied on healthy banana seedlings at 15 days interval significantly improved morphological growth trait (plant height, pseudo-stem diameter size, total leaf area, root length, and dry matter biomass) and physiological traits characters, but reduced proline and MDA content in plant tissues of banana. Hence, the results confirmed that each banana seedlings that received K2SiO3 at optimum frequency rate (15DI) had successfully enhanced the growth performance with better quality of Berangan banana seedlings at commercial-scale production.

Abstract

Objective: To determine the frequency of gynaecological cancers over an 18-year-period in Mozambique a country located in South Eastern sub-Saharan Africa, an area in which comprehensive statistics on cancer are limited. Materials and Methods: Retrospective review of the pathological records of gynaecological cancers at the Maputo Central Hospital from January 1991 to December 2008. Results: 3,726 gynaecological cancers were reported. Malignant neoplasms of the uterine cervix (64.0% of all tumours) were the most frequent cancers, followed by breast (23.2%), vulvar-vaginal (4.1%), ovarian cancers (3.8%), cancers of the uterine corpus (3.3%), and gestational choriocarcinoma (1.7%). Tumours of the uterine cervix, vulva/vagina, uterine corpus, and ovary increased in number three times, whereas breast cancers increased five times during the study period. Conclusions: Malignant tumours related to human papillomavirus (HPV) accounted for over two-thirds of all malignancies. Screening for cervical cancer and vaccination against HPV should be a health priority in sub-Saharan Africa.

Abstract

The study sought to evaluate the response of three groundnut genotypes (Binachinabadam-3, Dacca-1 and Zhingabadam) to various salt concentrations (D0 – Control, D1 – 2.5 dS/m, D2 – 5.0 dS/m, D3 – 7.5 dS/m, D4 – 10.0 dS/m, D5 – 12.5 dS/m) through observation of morphological and physiological characters. Based on relative performance of yield contributing characters and nutrient contents of leaves and stem, Binachinabadam-3 emerged to be a tolerant variety and based on root shoot characters, Dacca-1 appeared as tolerant while Zhingabadam always performed as sensitive variety. Salinity treatments had most adverse effects at flowering stage and followed the trend of sensitivity as flowering stage > vegetative stage> pre sowing stage > pod filling stage. All varieties were found to be tolerant up to salinity level of 7.5 dS/m.

Abstract

One of the potential ways of increasing rice production to cater for ever increasing population of Malaysia is to extend the production area of lowland rice through its production as upland rice. Therefore, this research was conducted to determine the effects of seed priming in alleviating water deficit stress in lowland rice produced as upland rice. The treatments used were 100mM calcium chloride dihydrate for duration of 48hours and temperature of 25oC, 40% w/v polyethylene glycol (PEG) 6000 for a duration of 48hours and temperature of 25oC, 100ppm kinetin for a duration of 24hours and temperature of 4oC, 200ppm methyl jasmonate for a duration of 24hours and temperature of 4oC, stressed control (unprimed seeds) and the unstressed control (unprimed seeds with adequate irrigation). The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. Data were collected on classical growth parameters, germination pattern, gas exchange characteristics, yield and yield components. It was found that priming MR219 rice with PEG could enable the variety to be produced as upland rice with little yield reduction because PEG priming was the best in individual seed mass, final yield, harvest index and water use efficiency. It is, therefore, concluded that 48hours of priming with 40%w/v polyethylene glycol at 25oC be used for MR219 rice seeds whenever MR219 rice variety is to be cultivated as upland rice.

Abstract

Low yield of rice has made reaching self-sufficiency level in Malaysia elusive. So, Malaysia has become a target of rice exporting countries within and outside Asia. To solve this problem, a pre-sowing seed treatment was used as a physiological intervention to alleviate the impeding problems of achieving better growth and yield of Malaysian rice variety MR219. A glass house experiment, which involved the use of solutions of osmotic salts and plant hormones, was used for this investigation. Data on germination percentages, height, number of tillers and productive tillers, tiller efficiency and yield were taken. In both osmopriming and hormonal priming treatments, the highest number of tillers and productive tillers were from pre-germination. The tallest plants from osmopriming were from 150mM treatment, while 50 ppm GA3 had the tallest in hormonal priming. The highest tiller efficiency for osmopriming was from 150mM and and 200mM sodium chloride, while in hormonal priming it was 200 ppm salicylic acid. For yield per panicle in osmopriming, it was 50mM and 100mM magnesium chloride that had the highest, while in hormonal priming it was 200 ppm methyl jasmonate. Finally, the highest grain yield per hill was produced by 200 ppm methyl jasmonate in hormonal priming, while 50Mm magnesium chloride had the highest yield in osmotic priming. So, it is concluded that the use of 200 ppm methyl jasmonate and 50Mm magnesium chloride could be used as potential hormonal priming and osmopriming, respectively, for yield improvement of MR219 rice in Malaysia.

Abstract

Drought stress is one of the major bottle necks of growth and productivity of Robusta coffee (Coffea canephora pierre ex froehner) in many producing areas the crop. An experiment was carried out to determine the difference among known Robusta coffee clones for rate of vegetative growth and dry matter production and partitioning under water deficit stress condition and to identify drought tolerant materials. Twelve-month-old seedlings of six Robusta coffee clones (IC-2, IC-3, IC-4, IC-6, IC-8 and R-4) were subjected to two irrigation treatments: well-watered control and water-stressed by withholding irrigation for 3 weeks in a rain shelter. Growth response to soil drying and dry matter distribution among plant parts were measured to identify drought tolerant clones. Leaf growth of all the coffee clones was considerably affected by soil drying. There were significant differences noted between clones for the rate of reduction in leaf elongation, total leaf area, specific leaf area (SLA) and dry matter yield under water stress condition. Moreover, rate of survival of coffee plants during drought and recovery upon re-watering at the end of the soil drying period significantly varied with clone. Some of the clones, particularly IC-3 and IC-6, exhibited higher root: shoot ratio (0.493-0.613) and total leaf area (900-920cm2) and lower SLA (82-83cm2/g) and rate of leaf fall (62-71 %) than the other clones (with the respective values of 0.413 - 0.447,160 -440cm2, 92 - 97 cm2/g, 82 - 92%) under water-stressed condition. These clones (86 - 88%) survived stress and produced new leaves and flowers more rapidly after re-watering than R-4 (37%) and IC-8 (53%). Hence, clones IC-6 and IC-3 exhibited better performances and seemed to be less sensitive to water deficit stress. Drought tolerance attributes in these clones could be linked to some morphological modifications, mainly increased root: shoot ratio and reduced SLA.

Abstract

Submergence or flood is one of the major harmful abiotic stresses in the low-lying countries and crop losses due to waterlogging are considerably high. Plant breeding techniques, conventional or genetic engineering, might be an effective and economic way of developing crops to grow successfully in waterlogged condition. Marker assisted selection (MAS) is a new and more effective approach which can identify genomic regions of crops under stress, which could not be done previously. The discovery of comprehensive molecular linkage maps enables us to do the pyramiding of desirable traits to improve in submergence tolerance through MAS. However, because of genetic and environmental interaction, too many genes encoding a trait, and using undesirable populations the mapping of QTL was hampered to ensure proper growth and yield under waterlogged conditions Steady advances in the field of genomics and proteomics over the years will be helpful to increase the breeding programs which will help to accomplish a significant progress in the field crop variety development and also improvement in near future. Waterlogging response of soybean and major cereal crops, as rice, wheat, barley, and maize and discovery of QTL related with tolerance of waterlogging, development of resistant variety, and, in addition, future prospects have also been discussed.

Abstract

Rice blast disease, caused by Magnaporthe oryzae, is the most important and most devastating rice disease globally. For genetic analysis of resistance to rice blast, the present study used a BC2F1 population developed through marker-assisted backcrossing from a cross between blast susceptible MR263 and blast resistant Pongsu Seribu 1 (PS1). We selected out of 450 markers, 65 polymorphic simple sequence repeat markers, including the Pi gene-based markers, and identified 16 markers associated with blast resistance that showed heterozygous bands in the BC2F1 population. Of the 16 polymorphic markers, only eight (RM5961, RM263, RM163, RM224, RM262, RM168, RM229 and RM169) showed a good fit to the expected segregation genotypic ratio (1:1) for the single dominance gene model (df = 1.0, P < 0.05), according to chi-square (χ2) analysis. An analysis of phenotypic data of the BC2F1 population also showed a good fit to the expected phenotypic ratio (1:1; R:S) for resistant and susceptible plants. The resistance to blast pathotype P7.2 in PS1 is most likely controlled by a single dominant gene that is linked to the eight markers we identified. These markers could be used in marker-assisted selection programmes to develop a durable blast resistant rice variety. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
