Cultivar development traits

Lodging resistance, plant height, and stem termination are traits important in cultivar development. Major genes control stem termination however, the final plant height and lodging resistance of adapted cultivars is considered quantitative and must be selected for using field trials in the target environment. [Pg.56]

In recent years, resistance or tolerance to herbicide injury has become a very important objective for cultivar development. Currently, tolerance to glyphosate is present in most cultivars in the United States, Argentina, and Brazil. This trait was introduced via transformation and is simply inherited. Resistance or tolerance to other herbicides including metribuzin, dicamba, glufosinate, and 2,4D have been reported and in some cases tolerant versions of cultivars released. The resistance or tolerance is... [Pg.57]

Lodging resistance and plant height are important traits in cultivar development. Lodging reduces seed yield in flax and may hinder harvesting of the crop. [Pg.166]

After World War II, the USDA developed a national soybean germplasm collection. Curtendy, the collection contains over 20,000 strains. It is the primary source for new genetic traits for the improvement of soybean cultivars as well as for basic genetic studies. [Pg.29]
