The productive and quality traits of forage maize in relation to the soil type and sowing density
(Natl Agricultural Research & Development Inst, Fundulea, 2014)
Successful maize cropping for forage under rain-fed conditions is predominantly dependant on the meteorological conditions, as well as on the soil type and crop density. The aim of this study was to relate the productive ...
A new search for restorer cytoplasm: The restorer cytoplasm for the gene ms10 most probably does not exist in maize
(Journal of Heredity, 2002)
Since the suggestion concerning the hypothesis of the existence of restorer cytoplasms for some of the known and currently available male sterile (ms) genes in maize, a relatively limited amount of research effort has been ...
The structure of sterile cytoplasm types within a maize genebank collection
(Maik Nauka/Interperiodica/Springer, New York, 2010)
Maize Research Institute (MRI) gene bank maintains a collection of 6000 maize accessions. Within this collection over 100 sources of cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) were found in field trials, i.e. more than 2% of the ...
Comparison of different methods for identification of maize populations (Yea mays l.) as sources for elite hybrid improvement
(Natl Agricultural Research & Development Inst, Fundulea, 2011)
Choice of adequate sources of new favorable alleles to be included in elite maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids improvement programs is of the main interest for maize breeders. The objectives of this study were: to evaluate potential ...
The stimulatory effects of 2,4-D as hormetic on maize seedling's growth
(Maydica-Ist Sper Cerealicoltur, Bergamo, 2007)
The 2,4-D was applied as hormetic, to increase germination ability and growth of seedlings originated from 19 maize inbred lines seeds (germination between 2 and 97%). The seeds were soaked in solution of 2,4-D, diluted ...
Different symptoms in maize root caused by pyrenochaeta terrestris and the fungal colony properties
(Natl Agricultural Research & Development Inst, Fundulea, 2012)
Rot symptoms that Pyrenochaeta terrestris causes on the root of each internode of maize hybrids belonging to different maturity groups, as well as the impact of growing conditions (substrate, temperature and light) on the ...
