Effect of planting dates on the level of European corn borer (Ostrinia nubilalis hbn.) Infestation, and crop injury and grain yield of maize (Zea mays l.)
(Maydica-Ist Sper Cerealicoltur, Bergamo, 2008)
Proper planting date is important for maize production. Therefore, field studies were conducted from 1995-2005 to determine the most suitable planting date for six maize hybrids (FAO 300-700 maturity groups) as influenced ...
Comparison of AFLP and SSR markers for genetic diversity studies in maize populations
(Maydica-Ist Sper Cerealicoltur, Bergamo, 2007)
Using a set of 18 maize populations belonging to six different agro-ecological groups we report on a comparison of AFLP and SSR techniques to evaluate their applicability for the study of genetic diversity. Also, a DNA-pooling ...
Inheritance of maize grain yield components
(Maydica-Ist Sper Cerealicoltur, Bergamo, 2007)
The mode of inheritance of maize grain yield and grain yield components, such as kernel-row number, number of kernels per row, and 1000-kernel weight, was determined by use of diallel crosses. Estimates of general (GCA) ...
Maize core collection for increased grain quality
(Maydica-Ist Sper Cerealicoltur, Bergamo, 2015)
Formation of the maize (Zea mays L) core collection for increased macronutrient content is presented. Among 3,443 populations from Maize Research Institute (MRI), Zemun Polje (ZP), a total of 352 accessions (around 10.2%) ...
Genetic divergence of different temporal cycles of selection
(Maydica-Ist Sper Cerealicoltur, Bergamo, 2009)
Since the mid 1960's, when the Maize Research Institute "Zemun Polje" began its maize breeding activities, there have been five cycles of selection primarily referring to the period of introducing new, higher-yield hybrids ...
The existence of a duplicated or parallel genetic system for fertility restoration in cmsC of maize (Zea mays L.)
(Maydica, 1997)
The inheritance of fertility restoration in cmsC in maize proved to be complex. Besides the group of three dominant complementary genes (Rf4, Rf5, Rf6), the data hitherto collected indicated that this system of fertility ...
RFLP and RAPD analysis of maize (Zea mays L.) local populations for identification of variability and duplicate accessions
(Maydica, 2003)
The genebank in Maize Research Institute "Zemun Polje" maintains the collection of 2178 local populations of maize, characterised and classified using morphological markers. In this work 13 local populations, some of which ...
Wet-milling properties of ZP maize hybrids
(Maydica-Ist Sper Cerealicoltur, Bergamo, 2007)
Basic chemical composition, physical and wet-milling properties of twelve the most widely grown ZP maize hybrids were studied. Starch yields of studied maize hybrids ranged from 58.8% in ZP 633 to 69.0% in ZP 808, while ...
Sixty years of ZP maize hybrid breeding
(Maydica-Ist Sper Cerealicoltur, Bergamo, 2007)
The modern ZP maize hybrids breeding at the Maize Research Institute, Zemun Polje, begun during the fifties of the 20(th) century. Collecting of the initial material was the first step in conducting maize breeding programs. ...
Photosynthetic and bioluminescence properties of maize inbred lines with upright leaves
(Maydica-Ist Sper Cerealicoltur, Bergamo, 2007)
The initial idea of this paper was a hypothesis that upright leaves of maize inbred lines were characteristic for an efficient photosynthetic model and that as such were very desirable in increasing the number of plants ...
