Assessment of Genetic Variability and Identification of Superior Recombinants in a Double-Cross-Derived F₂ Population of Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench) for Inbred Line Development

Shobha Immadi, Sushil Kumar Ganiger, S. R. Spoorthi, Manjula Maralappanavar & Jeevan Kumar · Journal of Scientific Research and Reports · 2026

Genetic recombination among diverse elite parental lines is an effective strategy for broadening the genetic base and developing superior inbred lines in okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench). Among 45 double-cross hybrids developed by crossing ten commercial single-cross hyb...

Unraveling Genetic Variability for Yield and its Component Traits under Terminal Drought Conditions in Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)

Priyanka, V. Prashantha, S. R. Spoorthi, K. M. Shirisha, Channabasava, K. S. Priyanka & A. G. Vijaykumar · Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology · 2025

Rainfed agriculture covers nearly 80% of the total cropped area and contributes more than 60% of global food production. In chickpea, productivity under post-rainy rainfed conditions is greatly constrained by drought stress. Enhancing drought tolerance through genetic improvement...

Determination of Optimum Lethal Dose of Ethyl Methane Sulphonate (EMS) and Its Effect on Germination Percentage and Seedling Survival in Niger (Guizotia abyssinica Cass.)

V. Prashantha, S. Hemalatha, K. S. Priyanka, N. Karthik, K. M. Shirisha, Priyanka, S. R. Spoorthi & R. Nandini · Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology · 2026

The creation and effective utilization of genetic variability are fundamental aspects of crop improvement programs. Mutation breeding is an important approach that allows the breeders to generate substantial genetic variation. Studies in several plant species have demonstrated th...
