DNA and biochemical analysis of a potential opaque2 maize population
(Društvo genetičara Srbije, Beograd, 2017)
Maize has low nutritional value because it is poor in essential amino acids lysine and tryptophan, but different mutations have been identified that increase their content. Two high lysine/tryptophan populations from Maize ...
Quantitative trait loci for yield and morphological traits in maize under drought stress / Identifikacija lokusa za kvantitativna svojstva kod kukuruza u uslovima suše - prinos i morfološka svojstva
(Društvo genetičara Srbije, Beograd, 2011)
Drought is one of the most important factors contributing to crop yield loss. In order to develop maize varieties with drought tolerance, it is necessary to explore the genetic basis. Mapping quantitative trait loci (QTL) ...
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 ...
Genetic and biochemical characterization of parental inbred lines in marker assisted selection for quality protein maize
(Društvo genetičara Srbije, Beograd, 2014)
Maize protein is deficient in two essential amino acids, lysine and tryptophan. Naturally occurring opaque2 (o2) mutation which increases the levels of tryptophan and lysine in the grain also confers an undesirable phenotype ...
Effect of long term crop rotation and fertiliser application on maize productivity
(Soc Field Crop Sci, Bornova, 2013)
The effect of crop rotation and the application of fertilisers on maize yield were investigated in a 12-year study (1998-2009) on the chernozem soil type at Zemun Polje, Serbia. The treatments included four cropping systems: ...
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%) ...
Combined S1-TC-RRS with consideration of CMS and dihaploids in maize / Kombinovana S1-TC-RRS pri korišćenju CMS-a i dihaploida kod kukuruza
(Društvo genetičara Srbije, Beograd, 2012)
Herein, we present the combined S1-HS-RRS method using inbred testers (S1-TC-RRS) as a long-term maize breeding program, which increases the frequency of favorable alleles and maintains genetic variability in two genetically ...
The dependence of maize (Zea mays) hybrids yielding potential on the water amounts reaching the soil surface / Zavisnost prinosa hibrida kukuruza (Zea mays) od količine vode koja dospeva na površinu zemljišta
(Društvo genetičara Srbije, Beograd, 2013)
The aim of the present study was to observe the response of maize hybrids under rainfed and irrigation conditions of the soil in order to establish the dependence of yielding potential on the water amounts reaching the ...
Determination relevant breeding criteria by the path and factor analysis in maize
(Društvo genetičara Srbije, Beograd, 2014)
In the process of plant breeding the application of relevant breeding criteria is very important. The Path analysis is broadly applied with the aim to define yield components that mostly determine the yield and that can ...
Genetic potential and maize production in Serbia / Genetički potencijal i proizvodnja kukuruza u Srbiji
(Društvo genetičara Srbije, Beograd, 2013)
Genetic potential of maize hybrids grown in Serbia is 10-15 t ha-1 , while the average yields are considerably lower. There are many reasons for this. At first, it is well known that drought is present often in some parts ...
