The genotype x environment interaction represents one of the major selection challenges due to the difficulty in identifying effectively superior genotypes. The present study aimed at estimating genetic parameters and selecting genotypes of early Carioca beans by analyzing simultaneous attributes, including yield, adaptability, and stability. In the agricultural year of 2015 and 2016, three trials were conducte...
Coriander is a important vegetable crop in Brazil, being widely consumed as a condiment and cultivated mainly in North and Northeast brasilian regions. Diseases caused by Meloidogyne species are one main causers damages of crop. In the literature there is no reported about identification nematoid resistant coriander genotypes. In this study was carried the reaction evaluation of a heat-tolerant coriander popula...
Foram avaliados oito caracteres agronômicos com o objetivo de selecionar os melhores para caracterizar os clones. Utilizou-se a análise de componentes principais objetivando o descarte de descritores considerados redundantes ou não discriminantes. Este método permitiu redução de quatro dos oito descritores agronômicos, do conjunto inicialmente considerado. Foi possível selecionar, por intermédio desta técnica, ...
O estudo teve o objetivo de estimar as correlações fenotípicas entre seis caracteres de cenoura de interesse agronômico e fazer uso da seleção indireta para escolher as melhores progênies. Foi utilizado o delineamento em blocos casualizados, constituído de 25 progênies de meios-irmãos de cenoura com quatro repetições, oriundas do composto UFAL – 1, obtido a partir do intercruzamento entre as seguintes cultivar...
The sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam) is a tuberous vegetable of large adaptation, cultivated in all Brazilian regions that is used for human being or animal feeding. In Brazil, it is cultivated 43,900 ha with an average yield of 11.035 kg ha-1. Despite the importance of this crop to Brazilian agriculture very little is known about the factors involved in the production of commercial roots. The objective ...
The analysis of canonical correlations measures the existence and the intensity of the association between two groups of variables or characters of importance. This study aimed to estimate the intensity in the association between the agronomic and industrial characters in sugarcane. The analysis of canonic correlations allowed to conclude that clones with bigger number of stalks per parcel, greater number of st...
