Monitoring animal welfare on farms and in research settings is attracting increasing interest, both for ethical reasons improving productivity through the early detection of stress or diseases. In contrast to video-based monitoring, which requires good light conditions has difficulty tracking specific animals, recent advances miniaturization wearable devices allow collection acceleration location data track individual behavior. However, broilers, there are several challenges address when...
We investigated the genetic diversity of 63 wheat genotypes, composed 48 accessions and 15 varieties, using 56 polymorphic simple sequence repeat primers. One hundred eighty-six loci were found, with a mean 131.26 alleles per locus. Cluster analysis based on microsatellite allelic discriminated varieties into different clusters; was highest between variety Kohistan-97 accession number 011512, giving similarity value 0.4198. Accession numbers 011484 011356 gave 0.9589, indicating that these...
Improvement in leaf hydraulics is directly related to the improvement of plant tolerance drought stress. Therefore, a field and pot experiment was carried out determine type genetic variability selection parental types on basis combining ability for hydraulics. Genotypes showed similar performance both experiments; higher values were shown by tolerant genotypes all traits except osmotic potential, which maintained lower. Osmotic adjustment highest magnitude additive variability. Female...
Drought, in conjunction with high temperature, is an important environmental constraint to cotton production.Development of varieties increased tolerance against adverse conditions has been proposed as effective strategy for ensuring reliable yields.In the present study, 30 simple sequence repeat (SSR) primers were used estimate genetic divergence among 22 genotypes drought stress tolerance.Genetic diversity a prerequisite developing resistant genotypes.Eleven SSR out able discriminate...
Cotton germplasm was analyzed to investigate its potential for developing water stress tolerance in varieties the future. Four tolerant (NIAB-78, CIM-482, BH-121, and VH-142) four susceptible (CIM-446, FH-1000, FH-900, FH-901) lines were identified of 50 accessions based on their seedling root length. A complete set diallel crosses among eight selected genotypes subjected genetic analysis fiber property traits. Additive non-additive variance involved inheritance strength, fineness, length...
Ten maize accessions (NC-9, A50-2, M-14, B-42, NC-3, T-7, N-48-1, B-34, USSR, and WFTMS) were studied to estimate the genetic distance on molecular level by random amplified polymorphic DNA.These selected basis of their variable responses against different levels moisture.Twenty-five primers used test diversity, which 14 observed be polymorphic.Ninety-three loci amplified; among these, 77 showed polymorphism other 16 monomorphic.Primers A-13 C-02 gave most bands, while A-01 C-06 fewest...
The genetic distance of 11 cotton genotypes varying in heat tolerance was studied using RAPD markers. Fifty-three random decamer primers were used for the estimation distance. Among 53 primers, which custom synthesized by GeneLink Inc., UK, 32 polymorphic and 21 monomorphic. produced 273 fragments, with a mean 8.3 fragments per primer. number bands accessions ranged from 1 to 31. Primer GLC-20 31 bands, while two GLB-5 GLC-12, one band each. A range 88.89 42.48% similarity observed among...
In order to study the genetic control of heat tolerance, four varieties/lines Gossypium hirsutum L., namely MNH-554, Cocker-304, Delcerro and Albacala (71) 1190, were crossed in all possible combinations. Heat tolerance 12 hybrids their parents was measured at reproductive phase using an electrolyte leakage technique. The analysis data showed significant effects specific combining ability reciprocals, but effect general appeared be non-significant. Comparison for revealed that MNH-554 best...
