Quantitative Trait Loci for Biofortification Traits in Maize Grain
(Oxford Univ Press Inc, Cary, 2012)
Detecting genes that influence biofortification traits in cereal grain could help increase the concentrations of bioavailable mineral elements in crops to solve the global mineral malnutrition problem. The aims of this ...
Identification of SNP mutations in MYBYE-1 gene involved in drought stress tolerance in maiz
(Bulgarian Journal of Agricultural Science, 2013)
As one of the most important agricultural crops, maize is a staple diet for a large portion of the continuously growing world's human population. Unfortunately, its production is severely affected by adverse environmental ...
Problems in weed control in Serbian maize seed production
(Maydica-Ist Sper Cerealicoltur, Bergamo, 2007)
Weed control in the seed maize production is facing some specific problems. Maize inbred lines are known to be susceptible to many stress factors, including actively growing weeds and some herbicides. The slower growth of ...
The effect of super-hydro-grow polymer on soil moisture, nitrogen status and maize growth
(Parlar Scientific Publications (P S P), Freising, 2011)
Irrigation, as a major solution to drought, is connected with irreversible nitrogen losses due to leaching. Improvement of soil management through the application of biodegradable polymers, as soil water bearers, gives a ...
Sweet maize (Zea mays l. Saccharata) weeds infestation, yield and yield quality affected by different crop densities
(Scientific Issues Natl Centre Agrarian Sciences, Sofia, 2012)
Weeds are among main limiting factors in sweet maize production. Commercially grown sweet corn hybrids (Zea mays saccharata Sturt.) vary widely in competitive ability against weeds which interference differentially affects ...
Inbred lines of different cycles of selection - donors of favourable alleles for the improvement of the kernel row number of f-1 maize hybrids
(Soc Field Crop Sci, Bornova, 2012)
Eight maize inbred lines of different cycles of selection, originating from synthetic populations BSSS and BSCB1, were observed in the present study. The aim of the study was to evaluate inbreds and to determine which ones ...
Evaluation of Serbian commercial maize hybrid tolerance to feeding by larval western corn rootworm (diabrotica virgifera virgifera leconte) using me novel 'difference approach'
(Maydica-Ist Sper Cerealicoltur, Bergamo, 2010)
Since the discovery of the pest in 1992, western corn rootworm (Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte (WCR)) populations in Serbia have successfully been kept low with crop rotation. This has reduced the efficiency of ...
The procedure providing enhanced Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of wheat
(Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, Berlin, 2014)
The examinations of conditions for establishing a variety independent Agrobacterium-mediated transformation procedure for wheat are preferable since many of cultivars and breeding lines remain recalcitrant for biotechnological ...
An etymological and lexicological note on the words for some ancient Eurasian grain legume crops in Turkic languages
(Turkish Journal of Field Crops, 2011)
On their way to both Europe and Caucasus, during the 7th and 6th millennia BC, the most ancient Old World grain legume crops, such as pea (Pisum sativum L.), lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) and faba bean (Vicia faba L.), ...
Thermal Inactivation of Soybean Bioactive Proteins
(Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, Berlin, 2012)
Inactivation of trypsin inhibitor, lipoxygenase 1, and urease during the processes of dry extrusion, wet extrusion, micronisation, microwave roasting and autoclaving were studied. Cultivars Bosa, ZPS 015, Goyou Kurakake ...
