Pigeonpea germplasm accessions collected from low (<500 m), medium (501–1000 m), high (1001–1500 m) and very high elevation
zones (>1500 m) of Kenya were evaluated for 15 agronomic traits and seed protein content at ICRISAT, Patancheru, India. There
were significant differences (P < 0.001) among elevation zones for the number of primary and secondary branches, days to 75% maturity, pod length, seeds per
pod, 100-seed weight and seed yield. Mean values indicated that the accessions from low elevation zone were significantly
different from those collected in higher elevation zones for early flowering and maturity, number of primary branches, pod
length, number of pods per plant, seeds per pod, 100-seed weight, seed yield and harvest index. None of the accessions collected
in Kenya belonged to extra early (<80 days to 50% flowering) and early (80–100 days to 50% flowering) maturity groups, as
defined by time to flowering at Patancheru, India. Mean diversity index based on all characters indicated that accessions
from the low elevation zone are more diverse than those from the higher elevation zones. Frequency distribution for trait
extremes indicated that the accessions from the low elevation zone were early to flower and mature, short statured, produced
more primary and secondary branches with high pod bearing length, long pods, more pods per plant, more seeds per pod, a high
seed yield and harvest index. Accessions from the very high elevation zone were late flowering, with a large number of tertiary
branches, large seeds and a high shelling percentage and could be a source for cold tolerance and the breeding of vegetable
types. Results suggest that the elevation of collection sites is therefore a very important determinant of variation patterns
of pigeonpea in Kenya. 相似文献

Eleven accessions of an under-utilized legume, Mucuna pruriens (L.) DC. var. utilis (Wall. ex Wight) Baker ex Burck (velvet bean) were collected from four districts of South India and their agronomic characters
were evaluated. The vegetative growth characters such as the germination percentage, plant height, number of leaves and branches
per plant were recorded. The yield based characters such as the number of clusters/plant (4–14), number of flowers/cluster
(3–15) and the fertility index (66–91%) were observed. The seed yield reaches 2.9–6.9 t/ha. The number of seeds per pod, seed
weight and the seed recovery percentage were also calculated. The level of diversity in the agrobotanical traits of velvet
bean observed in the present study could be of interest in a breeding programme. 相似文献

Cardamom (Elettaria cardamomum (L.) Maton) is an important spice crop of India and valued for its dried capsules. Regular surveys are being undertaken by
Indian Institute of Spices Research (IISR), Appangala, Karnataka, India for collecting the variable germplasm of cardamom.
At present 436 cardamom accessions collected from cardamom growing tracts of South India are conserved in field gene bank.
Among the collections, 23 accessions with varied branching pattern were assembled during explorations and characterized for
16 plant, panicle and capsule characters during 2003–2005. The coefficient of variation was greatest for yield per plant (77.94%)
followed by branches per panicle (49.40%) and minimum for dry recovery per cent (7.73%). Two accessions, IC 547214 and IC
349544 were identified as promising with desirable yield contributing characters. The accessions, IC 349553 with extensive
branching at the proximal end of the panicle and IC 547180 with dark green capsules even after drying were found to be unique.
All the characterized accessions are maintained under ex situ cardamom gene bank of IISR. 相似文献

Summary Factor, Principal component and canonical analyses were used to study the extent of genetic diversity among 30 accessions of West African okra. Genetic variability among the accessions proved to be large. Pigmentation of various parts of the accessions and fruit characteristics contributed significantly to the total variation observed. Factor analysis and principal component analysis produced similar results which were substantially different from those produced by canonical analysis. The first three canonical variables accounted for 100% of the total variance while the number of pods per plant, and pod weight primarily accounted for the first canonical variable. Whereas the second canonical variable was primarily loaded by number of seeds per pod and fruit colour, the third canonical variable was comprised of a weight of 100 seeds and number of epicalyx segments.The level of variability observed supports the opinion (Stevels, 1988, 1990) that this okra type constitutes a separate species. 相似文献

Summary A pure line faba bean germplasm collection (BPL) was derived by a process of cyclic single plant progenies starting in 1979
through 1985. In 1985/86, 840 of these pure line accessions from 677 original populations from 41 countries were evaluated
for autofertility by comparing the mean of five plants where all flowers were tripped vs. five plants with no tripped flowers
for number of seeds produced (seed index). In a replicated trial grown at the same time, seed yield, 100 seed weight, number
of pods per plant, seeds per pod, and number of flowers per inflorescence were also evaluated. A high number of BPL accessions
failed to set seeds in the screen houses without tripping, the mean seed index measure of autofertility was 0.51 with a C.V.
of 74.2%. There were marked differences among countries of origin for autofertility, with Egypt having the highest (SI = 0.94)
and the USSR the lowest (SI = 0.26) autofertility, however, most countries expressed a large range, suggesting that breeders
should first look in their own material for this trait rather than searching in exotic germplasm. In general, there was a
higher level of autofertility in Middle Eastern countries that may be due to natural selection for non-dependency on pollinators
for high yield. Contrary to the findings of others, large seeded accessions had a high autofertility (SI = 0.704) compared
to small seeded accessions (SI = 0.384), however, both had similar ranges. In general, there was no significant correlations
among autofertility and yield and its components. The variability found in this large pure line collection for autofertility
is of potential use for developing cultivars not dependent on insect populations for high yield and for developing self-pollinated
faba bean. 相似文献

This paper describes findings in the characterization of 300 accessions in a collection of common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) in Honduras. The plant material was collected from 1990 to 1994 (4 years before the damaging Mitch Hurricane) covering most of the Departments of the country and kept at the Escuela Agrícola Panamericana Zamorano. Thirty-two morpho-agronomical characters were evaluated and the results were grouped by classes. The studied accessions showed a marked diversity with high predominance of red and small seeds. The accessions with purple flowers had black seeds and originate mainly from the western area of the country where this type of seed is preferred. Principal Component Analysis shows that clearly defined groups do not exist. The conservation of this diversity is recommended for future propagation, breeding and the investigation of the genetic relationships and other studies. 相似文献

All the accessions (35) of white lupin (Lupinus albus L.) landraces collected from northwest Iberian plateau and maintained at the Spanish germplasm collection (CRF of INIA),
were studied with the general objective of assessing the biodiversity of these landraces and to ascertain their value as genetic
resources for the development of germplasm adapted to the areas where they were collected with long and chilly winters. The
characterization study comprised 51 qualitative and 50 quantitative characters. Quantitative parameters were analyzed by Principal
Components Analysis (PCA). The 2-dimensional plot (49.3% of cumulative variability) formed a main group of accessions and
4 outliers (#1, #9, #27 and #28) separated in the first PC. The characters with a higher contribution to the first PC were
inflorescence length, leaf petiole length and leaf central foliole area. The presence of alkaloids, the percentage of plants
killed by soil borne fungal diseases, the phenology, the yield per plant and yield components were also assessed. Twenty six
accessions (the main group in the PCA plot) showed high homogeneity, with the following highlights: bitterness, indeterminate
growth habit, early ripeness and spring sowing with the exception of #18, in which seeding date is unknown and it had a later
phenology. By contrast accessions #9 and #27 were bitter of autumn sowing with determinate growing habit and they had the
longest values of primary inflorescence length and a later phenology when they were sown in spring. Average values for yield
and yield components showed a broad range of variation between accessions. The main yield component was the number of pods
per plant. Accession #22 had the highest mean seed mass, although this had not significant influence in yield. Accession #17
showed the highest yield and #1 the lowest. This last also had the lowest values of inflorescence length, leaf petiole length
and leaf central foliole area. No significant differences of resistance to soil-borne fungi were found between accessions.
The year had a significant effect in the phenology, yield and yield components except for number of seeds per pod. The studied
material might be of interest for the development of spring sowing germplasm adapted to north Iberian peninsula. 相似文献

Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) is one of the ancient oil crops, grown in India since over 5,000 years ago. Diversity in the Indian sesame collection (3,129 accessions), representing all eco-geographical regions, for a range of morphological and agronomic characters was studied. Wide variation in plant habit (plant height and branching pattern), pubescence of various plant parts (stem, leaf, corolla and capsule), flower colour and number of flowers per leaf axil, capsule characteristics (shape, size, number in the axil of a leaf and number of locules in a capsule), number of capsules per plant, number of seeds per capsule, mean seed weight, and yield per plant was recorded. A detailed multivariate analysis was performed on a set of 100 selected accessions representing different agro-ecological zones. The accessions were classified into 7 discrete clusters. The principal components analysis described the spatial relationship among the entities and confirmed groupings obtained through clustering. Based on the clustering pattern of 100 accessions, the entire collection was allocated to different clusters. Representation of various zones in 7 clusters gives us the opportunity to form distinct diversity groups making combined use of passport and characterisation data. These diversity groups would subsequently be used for sampling the accessions for building up a core collection of sesame, a project already operative at the NBPGR. 相似文献

Durum wheat landrace genotypes are disappearing from the main wheat areas in Jordan, because of spreading of new uniform cultivars
and the serious reduction in wheat cultivation. This study was conducted to evaluate genetic diversity in durum wheat landraces
from Jordan and to identify desirable agronomic traits. Landraces were collected from two target areas: Ajloun and Karak.
The collected material was grown under rainfed conditions using an augmented design with five blocks and four repeated check
cultivars. Data were collected for 14 morphological and agronomic traits. Phenotypic diversity index (H′) was estimated, and
the relationships among accessions were measured using cluster analysis and dendrogram similarity matrix. The results revealed
the presence of a wide range of variability among landraces., which possess high levels of variability for biological yield,
fertile tillers, number of seeds per spike, seed weight per spike and weight of 1000 seeds. These landraces must be considered
as a reservoir of genes that plant breeders need in their wheat improvement programs and should be conserved both ex situ and in situ. 相似文献

A total of 179 garlic (Allium sativum L.) accessions were collected from various parts of Nepal in 2000. Each accession was planted in each of a plot of 2.25 m2 at the Institute of Agriculture and Animal Science (IAAS) Horticulture farm (225 m asl) and at the Agriculture Research Station,
Dailekh (1400 m asl) of Nepal Agriculture Research Council (NARC) in the first week of November 2000. All accessions were
characterized for leaf erectness, leaf color, leaf wax, leaf cross section, bulb regularity, bulb skin color, bulb outer scales
number, days to emergence, bulbing period, number of green leaves at 135 days after planting, days to maturity, plant height,
bulb weight, bulb diameter, number of cloves per bulb, clove diameter and bulb yield. Data were analyzed by using principal
component and cluster analysis procedures to reveal three major clusters. Four principal components were identified explaining
more than 86% of total variation. Major characters included in the principal components were bulb weight, diameter, yield,
number of cloves per bulb, maturity, plant height, number of green leaves at 135 days after planting, and bulbing period.
The level of variation found in the collection showed the great potentiality of improving agronomic characters in garlic. 相似文献

A pot experiment was conducted in a greenhouse to evaluate the effect of drought stress on growth and turf quality of 24 accessions of crested wheatgrass (Agropyron cristatum (L.) Gaertner.) and ‘Rembrandt’ tall fescue, and to find the most drought-tolerant accession(s) of crested wheatgrass. The grasses were treated in well-watered or exposed to drought stress by withholding water for 20 days. Visual turf quality of drought-stressed plants had no significant differences with well-watered plants until day 8 of drought and 1727 P10 had the highest turf quality at day 20 of drought. Cluster analysis classified the accessions and Rembrandt into five clusters comprised of drought tolerant (I), intermediate (II, IV and V) and susceptible (III) in response to soil drying. Turf quality, green tissue, relative water content and electrolyte leakage of cluster I (1727 M, 208 M, 4056, 2854 and 1727 P1) were 1.8-, 2.0-, 1.6- and 0.6-fold of cluster III (Rembrandt) under drought stress conditions, respectively. Genetic diversity of cluster I could be used for plant breeding programmes and introduction of the drought-tolerant accessions to turfgrass breeders for drought tolerance varietal development programme. 相似文献

Loquat species (Eriobotrya japonica Lindl.) originated in China, later was introduced in Japan. However, introduction in Europe occurred much later, in 18th
century, it was introduced as an ornamental tree. Since then, the species was very well adapted to the Mediterranean climate,
mainly in South East of Spain, where is located more than 50% of total European crop production. A European Project titled
‘Conservation, evaluation and collection of underutilized fruit species’ supported surveys and collection of plant material
from these species in the Mediterranean basin countries. One of these surveys resulted in a germplasm collection of loquat
established at IVIA, Valencia, Spain. This collection is being extended with new accessions collected across the world, currently
the collection have 123 accessions under study. Germplasm management needs first a characterization of the plant material
introduced and second diversity studies into the collection that could point out the variability pattern, to establish groups
of accessions with similar traits and the most significant variables. These results allow organizing the information gathered
for further uses. In this paper, 62 accessions from the IVIA germplasm collection were studied. Results from 43 variables
were gathered and data studied by multivariate analysis. The analysis allowed summarizing the data tables with new variables
containing most of the information. These results along with those obtained in the coming years will allow define a nuclear
collection (minimum number of accessions that contained all the variability present in the collection). 相似文献

A field experiment was conducted in Tanzania for two seasons to assess the genetic diversity of bambara groundnut landraces
based on morphological characters. One hundred accessions collected from a wide range of agricultural zones in the country
were evaluated in a 10 × 10 triple lattice block design at Maruku station in Bukoba, Tanzania. For the qualitative characters
evaluated, considerable morphological variations were observed for growth habit, pod shape and pod colour. Quantitative morphological
characters such as peduncle length, number of leaves per plant, terminal leaflet width, terminal leaflet length, petiole length,
plant spread, plant length, pod width, seed length, seed width, number of pods per plant, shelling percentage and days to
50% flowering showed significant variation among accessions for the two test seasons. Multivariate analysis for 15 quantitative
morphological traits that showed significant variation indicated that the first four PCs with eigenvalues ≥1 accounted for
63.0 and 65.0% of the total variance among the accessions during the two test seasons, respectively. The most important loadings
for PC1 and PC2 for the two seasons were terminal leaflet width, terminal leaflet length, petiole length, plant spread, plant
height and pod length, pod width, seed length, seed width, numbers of pods per plant. Cluster analysis grouped bambara groundnut
accessions into three major groups with respect to their geographic origins. Based on this present study, bambara groundnut
landraces from Tanzania displayed a considerable diversity for morphological and agronomic traits useful for germplasm management
and utilization into crop improvement. 相似文献

The domestication of cultivated flax (Linum usitatissimum L. subsp.usitatissimum) is briefly discussed.
Using data documented as a matter of routine in genebank work, 63 accessions of cultivated flax from the flax germplasm collection
of the Gatersleben Genebank are compared with 73 accessions of its wild progenitor pale flax (subsp.angustifolium (Huds.) Thell.), which have been observed in systematic field trials. Range of variation, genetically based variation, heritability
and correlation of several characters are considered, especially with respect to the influence of domestication.
Cultivated flax shows higher variation in the characters of generative plant parts, while pale flax varies more in the vegetative
parts of the plant.
The character correlations are similar in both subspecies. Of the 29 characters studied in pale flax the parameters describing
tillering, height of plant, weight of seeds, width of petals and width of leaves are especially suitable for distinguishing
between different accessions. In spite of the high heritabilities of most of the characters, the influence of the environment
is significant in most cases. 相似文献

Sixty-two accessions of Prosopis cineraria, collected from different areas of the Cholistan desert and from the vicinity of Islamia University, Bahawalpur during June,
2002 were evaluated for agro-morphological diversity. Data collected revealed considerable variation for pod length, pod thickness,
number of seeds per pod, pod weight, 100-seed weight, seed size, number of pinnules, length of pinnae, length of the pinnulae,
and breadth of the pinnulae. Accessions GD-1 and GD-2, collected from Gadhen Wala Toba, KWT-1, KWT-3, KWT-4, KWT-6, from Khokhran
Wala Toba, TWT-2, TWT-7, TWT-8, from Taraway Wala Toba, CSW-2, CSW-7, CSW-8, from Chah Sulleh Wala, and IUB-5, IUB-9, from
Islamia University, Bahawalpur, showed very high variation. Overall, accessions KWT-6 from Khokhran Wala Toba, and TWT-7,
from Taraway Wala Toba, (both from Cholistan desert), appeared as best genotypes based on their morphological variation detected
in this study. 相似文献

Qualitative and quantitative changes in populations of meadow fescue (Festuca pratensis Huds.) after seed storage under different conditions were estimated. Phenotypic characters of plants grown from seeds stored for 54 months under two different storage conditions were compared. The germination of most of the seed accessions stored under favourable conditions remained at the initial level while storage under unfavourable conditions resulted in a decrease of the initial germination percentage as well as in an increase in the number of plants showing chlorophyll aberrations. There is great variability among the accessions resulting from storage under unfavourable conditions. In case of a few accessions a decrease in germination below 35% resulted in chlorophyll aberrations, faster flowering, shorter inflorescence and reduced viability of pollen grains. 相似文献

Wild lentils are a potentially important source of genetic variation for the improvement of the cultivated lentil. A lack of evaluation data for characters of economic importance is one constraint to their use in breeding programmes. Here, variation in selected phenological and agro-morphological characters in 310 accessions of wild lentils is reported. This includes 153 accessions of Lens culinaris subsp. orientalis, 33 accessions of L. odemensis, 32 accessions of L. nigricans, 90 accessions of L. ervoides and 2 accessions of L. lamottei. Certain L. culinaris subsp. orientalis accessions had substantially more leaves per plant, peduncles per plant, pods per plant and seeds per plant, and greater leaf area than two cultivated lentil checks. The total biomass obtained from the best L. culinaris subsp. orientalis accessions was comparable with the checks. The harvest index of one check was comparable with that of the two best L. culinaris subsp. orientalis accessions. Of the wild taxa, the L. lamottei had the highest average 100-seed weight. Broad-sense heritabilities were calculated and found to be high for days to average flowering and days to average podding. Significant correlations exist between quantitative characters and latitude of origin. Phenological adaptation, through sensitivity to photoperiod, temperature or both, appear to be a major evolutionary force in wild lentils. Variation is mapped according to geographical origin of accessions in order to identify geographical patterns or clines of variation. Accessions of L. culinaris subsp. orientalis from Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and Tajikistan had among the largest biomass, the most peduncles per plant and many pods and seeds per plant. One-hundred seed weight, however, did not decline as expected with increased seed number. 相似文献

Abstract In a plant pot experiment with non-inoculated seed stock of narrow-leaf lupin (Lupinus angustifolius, L.) of the variety ‘Prima’ we explored the effects of nitrogen compounds applied in the form of NH4NO3 on different dates (before sowing, after emergence and during flowering) and at various levels (0–0.5–2–3 g N per pot) on changes in the number of pods per plant, the 1000-seed weight, seed yields and the content of crude protein in seeds. The experiment included four treatments; the first was a control treatment not fertilized with nitrogen. In the other treatments we applied nitrogen either as a single application before sowing or in three split applications. In all the nitrogen-fertilized variants the number of pods per plant, total seed yields per plant and the concentration of crude protein all increased compared to the unfertilized control variant. The highest levels of nitrogen (3 g N per pot) reduced the 1000-seed weight compared to the unfertilized control variant. The total application of 2 g N per pot split into application before sowing (0.5 g N), after emergence (0.5 g N) and during flowering (1 g N) resulted in a highly significant increase in the number of pods per plant (+78%), the 1000-seed weight (+20.1%) and therefore higher seed yields per plant (+139.8%) compared to the control treatment not fertilized with nitrogen. Increasing levels of nitrogen linearly increased the content of crude protein in seeds during harvest from 24.2% to 40.6%, thus increasing the nutritional quality of the seeds. 相似文献
