Hee Yang Chiow; J. C. Wynne Peanut Science 1983. doi:10.3146/i0095-3679-10-1-5

Other claims from this paper (16)

Observation Progenies varied substantially for yield, seed weight, meat and protein content.
Observation Progenies varied less for fruit length, fruit weight, oil content and maturity index.
Observation Heritability was highest for yield, meat and protein content.
Observation Heritability was intermediate for fruit length, fruit weight and seed weight.
Observation Heritability was lowest for oil content and maturity index.
Observation Genotypic correlations were generally higher than phenotypic correlations.
Association Maturity index showed low phenotypic correlations with yield and yield components.
Association Fruit size was highly correlated with seed weight.
Association Fruit size and seed weight were significantly correlated with yield.
Association Protein content and yield correlations were low.
Association Oil content was negatively correlated with yield.
Recommendation Selecting yield components was less effective than selecting yield directly.
Recommendation Selection for yield could increase protein content and fruit and seed traits.
Observation Transgressive segregation occurred across all studied traits.
Observation Progeny trait means were closer to the Spanish than the Virginia parent.
Observation Some progeny combined early maturity, high yield and large fruit.

The effect of incorporation time of different crops on the residual effect on spring cereals

H. KÄNKÄNEN; A. KANGAS; T. MELA Agricultural and Food Science 1999. doi:10.23986/afsci.5629

Other claims from this paper (7)

Intervention effect Barley grain yield after legumes was similar to yield after barley despite 40 kg ha-1 less N fertilization.
Intervention effect Autumn ploughing gave good barley yield more reliably than spring incorporation.
Recommendation The authors recommend delayed autumn ploughing for its potential to reduce nitrogen leaching.
Recommendation Spring ploughing could be used except on clay soils.
Intervention effect Reduced tillage spring incorporation of ryegrass often decreased barley yield.
Intervention effect Reduced tillage spring incorporation of red clover often decreased barley yield.
Intervention effect Incorporation timing had no consistent effect on oats grain yield in year three.
