High molecular weight glutenin subunits and the classification used in Brazilian wheat industry

Industrial wheat quality flour is related to gluten amount in grain. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between high molecular weight (HMW) glutenins obtained by SDS-PAGE and gluten strength (W) obtained by the alveograph test and cropping environmental effect on wheat flour quality for Brazilian industry. Fifty-one cultivars/breeding lines were evaluated.. Read More»

Construction of a molecular database for soybean cultivar identification in Brazil

    M.B. Oliveira, E.S.N. Vieira and I. Schuster

The narrow genetic base of soybean makes cultivar characterization based on morphological descriptors difficult; this characterization is mainly done for registration and protection. Correct characterization of cultivars could be achieved through molecular markers, since the frequencies of each allele in the population are known. Consequently, we developed a molecul.. Read More»

Heterotic groups in tropical maize germplasm by test crosses and simple sequence repeat markers

    C.G. Aguiar, I. Schuster, A.T. Amaral Júnior, C.A. Scapim and E.S.N. Vieira

The objectives of the present study were to determine heterotic groups of germplasm lines of tropical maize by test crosses and by simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers and to compare five grouping methods of heterogeneous maize. Sixteen lines of nine populations in the S5 generation were evaluated in test crosses with three testers. The results of four experimental trials over two years were us.. Read More»

Genetic diversity in elite inbred lines of maize and its association with heterosis

    E.H. Fernandes, I. Schuster, C.A. Scapim, E.S.N. Vieira and M.M.D. Coan

The objective of the current study was to apply molecular markers (microsatellites) in the analysis of genetic diversity of 48 lines of the elite maize germplasm stored in the bank of the Cooperativa Central de Pesquisa Agrícola - Coodetec, PR, Brazil, and estimate the correlation between genetic distance and heterosis and hybrid performance from the crosses among these maize lines. Fort.. Read More»

Internal amplification control of PCR for the Glu1-Dx5 allele in wheat

One of the limiting factors in using dominant markers is the unique amplification of the target fragment. Therefore, failures in polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or non-amplifications can be interpreted as an absence of the allele. The possibility of false negatives implies in reduced efficiency in the selection process in genetic breeding programs besides the loss o.. Read More»
