Grouping pattern of maize test locations and its impact on hybrid zoning
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2015)
Grain yield is a result of the combined effects of genotype, environment and their interaction. The importance of the genotype x environment interaction is that it causes different reactions of maize hybrids when they are ...
Antioxidant activity of small grain cereals caused by phenolics and lipid soluble antioxidants
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2011)
In this study, the content of soluble, free forms of phenolic compounds (total phenolics, flavonoids, PVPP (polyvinylpolypyrrolidone) bound phenolics, proanthocyanidins and phenolic acids), as well as the content of ...
Preliminary investigation of mineral content of pollen collected from different Serbian maize hybrids - is there any potential nutritional value?
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2017)
BACKGROUNDBee pollen has already proved to be a good supplement rich in iron and zinc. Studies on the application of flower pollen in the food industry and medicine have begun. Bearing in mind the prevalence of maize as a ...
Effect of recombination in the maize breeding population with exotic germplasm on the yield stability
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2012)
A little knowledge exists about the probability that recombination in the parental maize populations will enhance the chances to select more stable genotypes. The synthetic parent maize population ((1601/5 x ZPL913)F-2 = ...
Biochemical and physical kernel properties of a standard maize hybrid in different TopCross (TM) Blends
(Univ Sao Paolo, Cerquera Cesar, 2017)
A pilot experiment was undertaken in order to examine high oil populations of maize (Zea mays L.) to be used as pollinators in TopCross blends with commercial ZP341 standard hybrid. Five high oil populations (HOPs) from ...
Antioxidant activity, phenolic profile, chlorophyll and mineral matter content of corn silk (Zea mays L): Comparison with medicinal herbs
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2016)
Yellow, green, pinky and purple colored corn silk were harvested 5 and 25 days after emergence and compared with six medicinal herbs for total phenolics, flavonoids, anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins, chlorophylls, as well ...
Effects of enzyme activities during steeping and sprouting on the solubility and composition of proteins, their bioactivity and relationship with the bread making quality of wheat flour
(Royal Soc Chemistry, Cambridge, 2016)
The aim was to determine the effect of steeping and sprouting on wheat grain proteins and the functional consequences in this regard. The solubility of proteins and the polypeptide composition of albumins, globulins, ...
Relationships of mycobiota on rachides and kernels of wheat
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2012)
The frequency and incidence of fungi, as well as their interdependence, on rachis and grain of 14 wheat cultivars grown under 19 different agroecological conditions in Serbia, were studied. Out of the 23 identified fungal ...
Development of High Tryptophan Maize Near Isogenic Lines Adapted to Temperate Regions through Marker Assisted Selection Impediments and Benefits
(Public Library Science, San Francisco, 2016)
Breeding program aimed at converting standard maize inbred lines to their quality protein maize (QPM) counterparts for growing in temperate climate is being conducted at Maize Research Institute (MRI). The objective of the ...
Wheat seedlings growth response to water deficiency and how it correlates with adult plant tolerance to drought
(Cambridge Univ Press, New York, 2015)
Improving resistance to water and osmotic stresses at the seedling stage is becoming a much more important target for wheat breeders due to an increase in the frequency and severity of drought occurrences at the crop ...
