Author(s): FERREIRA, R. T.; VIANA, A. P.; BARROSO, D. G.; RESENDE, M. D. V. de; AMARAL JÚNIOR, A. T. do The increasing demand for raw material for multiple uses of forest products and by-products has attracted the interest for fast growing species, such as the Australian Cedar (Toona ciliata), which pre... ... |
Author(s): OLIVEIRA, C. F. de; SOUZA, J. E. de; SIQUEIRA, M. J. da S.; SILVA JÚNIOR, A. C. da; FERREIRA, R. de P.; VILELA, D.; CRUZ, C. D. The biggest challenge in the alfalfa breeding program is to obtain cultivars with high persistence, high productivity, and adaptability. Therefore, studies about selection methods are necessary for th... ... |
Author(s): SANCHÉZ, C. F. B.; ALVES, R. S.; GARCIA, A. d. P.; TEODORO, P. E.; PEIXOTO, L. A.; SILVA, L. A.; BHERING, L. L.; RESENDE, M. D. V. de The aim of this study was to evaluate repeated measures over the years to estimate repeatability coefficient and the number of the optimum measure to select superior genotypes in Annona muricata L. Th... ... |
Author(s): ASSIS, G. M. L. de; RUGGIERI, A. C.; MERCADANTE, M. E. Z.; CAMARGO, G. M. F. de; CARNEIRO JUNIOR, J. M. Although alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is a leguminous herbage widely used in temperate regions as animal feed, there is not much research in tropical regions to develop cultivars adapted to these envi... ... |

Elephant grass is an allogamous perennial forage crop with asexual propagation, allowing plant breeders to explore heterosis and develop hybrids. However, selecting parents for diallel crossing scheme... ... |
Author(s): FLÔRES JUNIOR, P. C.; IKEDA, A. C.; SCHUHLI, G. S. e; SILVA, L. D.; HIGA, A. R. Selecting superior individuals requires a careful genetic evaluation. For this reason, repeated measurements of biometric traits need to be carried out in the same individual. This index is a strategi... ... |
Author(s): FERNANDES, F. D.; BRAGA, G. J.; RAMOS, A. K. B.; JANK, L.; CARVALHO, M. A.; MACIEL, G. A.; KARIA, C. T.; FONSECA, C. E. L. da Selection of superior forage genotypes is based on agronomic traits assayed in repeated measures. The questions are how repeatable the performance of individual genotypes is and how many harvests are... ... |
Author(s): FERREIRA, M. R.; MARTUSCELLO, J. A.; BRAZ, T. G. dos S.; NASCIMENTO, A. A.; JANK, L.; ASSIS, J. A. de; ALMEIDA, O. G. de; REIS, G. de A.; SANTOS, M. V.; SANTOS, M. F. In experiments with selection of perennial plants, the initial performance is expected to be maintained throughout the productive life. The probability of repeating the agronomic response can be evalu... ... |
Author(s): LIMA, M. A. de; LUIZ, A. J. B.; GALVAO, J. A. H.; CABRAL, O. M. R. Brazil has extensive pasture areas for beef cattle grazing. An experiment was carried out in summer in a Brachiaria pasture in Southeastern Brazil, characterized by hot and humid climate in summer and... ... |
