Variabilidade genética em linhagens de milho nas características relacionadas com a produtividade de silagem

Abstract: Resumo -Em programas que visam à obtenção de híbridos, a ênfase deve ser no desenvolvimento de cultivares com maior produtividade de matéria seca e digestibilidade da silagem e que apresentem variação entre si em relação a esses caracteres. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a variabilidade genética de linhagens de milho quanto a características relacionadas à produção de silagem. Foram semeadas 36 linhagens em duas épocas (novembro e dezembro), no delineamento de látice simples 6x6. As plantas foram colhid… Show more

“…In breeding programs, the knowledge of the correlations between traits that contribute to higher yield and fresh mass yield is crucial, since these traits facilitate the selection of favorable hybrids, and may guide the selection methodology. According to Gomes et al (2004), the study on the relationship between different traits allows directing the selection. Therefore, the most regionally suitable hybrid can be used for fresh mass yield, when no specific information is found for corn hybrids for silage production.…”

“…In Brazil, supplementary feeding is required, especially in the fall and winter seasons, due to the seasonality of forage production. Thus, the use of forage during these seasons has increased each year (Gomes et al 2004). Corn has key role among the forage plants used for supplementation due to its high fresh mass yield per hectare and for its good nutritional qualities (Melo et al 1999).…”

“…No entanto, a maior parte dos programas de melhoramento de milho no Brasil não dá ênfase ao desenvolvimento de cultivares forrageiros/silageiros, haja vista a baixa quantidade de sementes comercializadas especificamente para este fim em contraposição ao propósito granífero (GOMES et al, 2004). Sendo que, em torno de 15% da área total de milho cultivada no país é destinada à produção forrageira (PEREIRA, 2013).…”

“…These values are lower than those found by Pinto et al (2010), which ranged from 49.1 to 56.2%. Gomes et al (2004) evaluated the characteristics related to maize silage productivity and observed that the correlations of NDF and degradation were negative in most cases. Thus, the hybrid that showed high degradability usually had low percentage of NDF, as such characteristic represents a portion of the indigestible forage, which makes results of NDF found in this study important.…”
