Genetic Improvement for Yield and Yield Related Traits by Introgressive Hybridization in Sweet Corn
Mandefro Nigussie,Ghizan saleh 韓國作物學會 2005 Korean journal of crop science Vol.50 No.2
Proper choice of source populations contributes to the ultimate success of selection for genetic improvement. The source population should possess the most desirable alleles at as many loci as possible for intra population improvement. Such desirable alleles can be intensified by introgression of exotic germ plasm into locally adapted ones through hybridization followed by selection. The objectives of this study were to determine the mean performance, genetic variability (~sigma2G) and heritability of fresh ear yield and other important traits within two sweet corn source populations, BC1-10~timesSyn-II and BC2-10. One hundred selfed progenies from each of the two source populations were evaluated in a 10~times10 lattice design, at the Institute of Bioscience (IBS) Farm, University of Putra Malaysia (UPM) following the recommended cultural practices. Significant differences among selfed progenies within BC1-10~timesSyn-II were observed for all traits, while differences among selfed progenies within BC2-10 were noted for fresh ear yield, ear length, ear diameter, number of kernels per row, ear height, days to tasseling and days to silking. Progenies developed from BC1-10~timesSyn-II population had higher estimates of ~sigma2G than did progenies from BC2-10 population for number of kernel rows per ear, total soluble solids, plant height, days to tasseling and days to silking, showing that selection to improve these traits would be more effective in selfed progenies of BC1-10~timesSyn-II than that in BC2-10. On the other hand, progenies developed from BC2-10 population had higher estimates of ~sigma2G for ear length, ear diameter and ear height, indicating that progenies from this population would have better genetic gain than BC1-10~timesSyn-II . Comparable estimates of genetic variance were found for fresh ear yield, and number of kernels per row, indicating that genetic improvement of the two source populations is expected to produce similar genetic gains for these two traits. Therefore, selfed progenies developed from both source populations could be used to improve the two populations for various traits and thereby develop superior genotypes for immediate use in the production system.
Yield Improvement by Two Cycles of Mass Selection in Two Sweet Corn Populations

Mass selection (MS) is an efficient selection method to directly improve highly heritable traits. In the present study, two cycles of MS for ear length were conducted on two sweet corn populations, BC2-l0 and $BC1-10{\times}Syn-II$ after introgression of exotic germplasm. The improved populations generated from these selections were evaluated in comparison with the base populations at two locations, to determine the genetic gains and performance of the improved populations. The two base populations showed varied average realized responses to MS. In BC2-l0 derived population, the realized responses were $9.1\%$ in BC2-l0 C1 and $1.2\%$ in BC2-l0 C2, whereas in$BC1-10{\times}Syn-II$ derived population, the realized responses were$ 5.6\%$ in $BC1-10{\times}Syn-II$ C1 and $2.9\%$ in $BC1-10{\times}Syn-II$ C2. All the improved populations showed longer ears than their respective base populations and the check varieties. Ear length, which was used as the selection criterion in this study, showed high broad-sense heritability in the BC2-l0 and $BC1-10{\times}Syn-II$ derived populations, while fresh ear yield revealed low heritability, indicating that selection for ear length in these populations would be more effective than direct selection for yield. Results of this study indicate that MS conducted on BC210 and $BC1-10{\times}Syn-II$ had significantly increased ear length and fresh ear yield in both populations. The improved populations obtained would serve as better germplasm sources and further selection in these populations could offer better responses.

The source population should possess the most desirable alleles at as many loci as possible for intra population improvement. Such desirable alleles can be intensified by introgression of exotic germ plasm into locally adapted ones through hybridization followed by selection. The objectives of this study were to determine the mean performance, genetic variability $({\sigma}^2G)$ and heritability of fresh ear yield and other important traits within two sweet corn source populations, $BC1-10{\times}Syn-II$ and BC2-10. One hundred selfed progenies from each of the two source populations were evaluated in a $10\times10$ lattice design, at the Institute of Bioscience (IBS) Farm, University of Putra Malaysia (UPM) following the recommended cultural practices.

Progenies developed from $BC1-10{\times}Syn-II$ population had higher estimates of ${\sigma}^2G$ than did progenies from BC2-10 population for number of kernel rows per ear, total soluble solids, plant height, days to tasseling and days to silking, showing that selection to improve these traits would be more effective in selfed progenies of $BC1-10{\times}Syn-II$ than that in BC2-10.
