Hardy hibiscus (Hibiscus x moscheutos L.) is gaining popularity as a landscape plant and the accelerated increase in the volume of planting material is of particular relevance. The work investigated the effect of the concentration of 6-BAP (0.5, 1.0, 1.5 mg / L) on the shoot formation of hibiscus of the following varieties: cv. Cranberry Crush, Fantasia, Fireball, Jazzberry Jam. It was revealed that the concentration of 6-BAP 0.5 mg / L is optimal for the proliferation of microshoots of Hibiscus x moscheutos L. With the increase in the concentration of 6-BAP, the number of formed microshoots decreases.
The article presents the results of the assessment of morphotypes of strains of wine yeast sown from wort and pulp of samples of grape variety Dostoyny, taken in the SEC "Wine Village" of the Anapsky District of the Krasnodar Territory. The separation of saccharomycetes and non-saccharomycetes by morphotypic features and using an elective test was carried out.
The creation of apple varieties with a high level of f lesh f irmness and long shelf life is one of the important goals in breeding. Among the genes controlling these traits, the role of the endogenous ethylene biosynthesis control gene, Md-ACS1, the expansin gene, Md-Exp7, and the polygalacturonase gene, Md-PG1, has been established. The use of DNA marker analysis to solve problems in breeding for fruit quality traits allows one not only to track several target genes simultaneously, but also to cull plants with undesirable alleles at the early stages of development. In order to select complex donors of breeding traits, molecular genetic identif ication of the genes that determine the quality traits of apple fruits Md-Exp7 and Md-PG1 was performed in 256 breeding selections carrying the scab resistance gene Rvi6 and valuable allelic variants of the Md-ACS-1 gene, which determines the endogenous synthesis of ethylene in fruits: 90 samples with the Md-ACS1 allele (2/2) and 166 samples with Md-ACS1 (1/2). As a result of the study, an allelic combination for the Md-Exp7 and Md-PG1 genes was established. Analysis of the parental cultivars (Renet Simirenko, Modi, Smeralda, Renoir, Fulzhion and Granny Smith) used to obtain hybrid selections revealed three alleles 198, 202, 214 bp according to the DNA marker of the Md-Exp7 gene. The SSR marker for the Md-PG1 gene amplif ied three alleles (289, 292, 298 bp) on the abovementioned cultivars. Within the 256 breeding selections samples that have the most priority for breeding alleles of the desired genes in combination with the Rvi6 gene and/or with selection-priority allelic variants of the Md-ACS-1 gene were identif ied. Of the most valuable for breeding, 46 accessions carrying the combination Md-Exp7 (202:202) + Md-ACS1 (2/2) were distinguished. Hybrids with alleles Md-PG1 (292:292) + Md-ACS1 (2/2) are also most valuable for use in breeding and as donors of selection-valuable alleles; 21 samples were identif ied. Accessions with a complex of breeding-valuable target alleles are valuable complex donors, as well as valuable breeding material for creating varieties with improved fruit quality characteristics and scab resistance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
