Citrus canker (CC), caused by one of the most destructive subfamilies bacterial phytopathogen Xanthomonas citri subsp. Citri (Xcc), poses a serious threat to significantly important citrus fruit crop grown worldwide. This has been subject ongoing epidemiological and disease management research. Currently, five different forms have identified CC, in which Canker A (Xanthomonas citri) being harmful infecting majority cultivars. Severe infection symptoms include leaf loss, premature drop,...
Climate change could be an existential threat to many crops. Drought and heat stress are becoming harder for cultivated Cotton in Pakistan is grown under natural high temperature low moisture, used as a source of drought tolerance. Therefore, the study was conducted morphological, physiological molecular characterization cotton genotypes field conditions. A total 25 were selected from gene pool based on tolerance stress. In trail, related traits like boll retention percentage, plant height,...
Climate change and particularly global warming has emerged as an alarming threat to the crop productivity of field crops exerted drastic effects on cropping patterns. Production cotton been dropped down one million bales from 1.4 since 2015 in Pakistan due increase temperature at critical growth stages, i.e., flowering boll formation. Keeping view importance country, this study was conducted investigate genetic conferring heat tolerance six populations (P1, P2, F1, F2, BC1 BC2) developed...
Abstract Background The effectiveness of Bacillus thuringiensis ( Bt ) cotton against target arthropod larvae is decreasing day by day. comparative effect expression among varieties and different plant parts was observed the bollworms: Helicoverpa armigera Pectinophora gossypiella larvae. Results In present study, larval mortality H. higher than P. selected cultivars. Median lethal concentration (LC 50 values were 8.91, 13.4, 14.0, 36.4 for , while 5.91, 4.04, 2.37, 8.26 FH-142, MNH-886,...
Cotton fibers are the seed trichomes that developed around and used to make clothes yarn for textile industry. Expression profiling of cotton fiber genes is very important estimate differential gene expression level at different developmental stages. analysis developing enhance length cotton. The three families in five stages (0, 5, 10, 15 20 DPA) tissues was carried out through real-time PCR. revealed transcripts GA-20 Oxidase, XTH, PEPc were elevated from 5 days post-anthesis (DPA) fibers....
Increase in productivity and selection procedures chiefly depend upon genetic control of yield related traits, combining ability the genotypes for concerned characters association these parameters among themselves with final yield.Single three way crosses cotton were analyzed behavior, ability, heterosis correlation various traits to boll (synonymously known as withinboll traits) fibre quality.The experiments carried out at Department Plant Breeding Genetics, University Agriculture,...
The morpho-physiological selection and linkage between traits have been investigated. There were 20 cotton genotypes grown using RCBD with two replications at experimental area. ANOVA showed significant variation for all the traits. GCV PCV values of heritability genetic advance higher like bolls per plant, sympodial branches plant height, respectively. These more under control factors additive gene action. was high correlation boll weight seed yield; transpiration rate stomatal conductance....
Unsuitable change in climatic conditions cause decline quality and yield of major crops. Plant growth is directly affected if temperature, rainfall or humidity are not optimum. A multi-location multi season evaluation effects on may produce a reliable data for future breeding. set 39 upcoming varieties cotton were evaluated six different Micro-climatic locations Punjab i.e. Multan, Bahawalpur, Sahiwal, Rahimyar khan, Vehari Faisalabad triplicated trial. The experiment was repeated next year...
