Genetic gain in apomictic species of the genus Paspalum

Abstract: 1The objective of this work was to provide means to obtain genetic gain in apomictic species of the genus Paspalum by identifying traits that simultaneously show high correlation and heritability. Thus, to determine the amount of phenotypic variation due to genetic and environmental effects and the degree of association between leaf dry matter production and other traits of forage interest that are easy to select and measure will bring agility and economy in the selection of forage species. The experiment was … Show more

“…For individual harvests, the same authors found a narrow-sense heritability of 0.05 for LDM. Similar to our results, broad-sense heritabilities were reported in Paspalum for LDM with 0.82 and PLB with 0.55 (Pereira et al 2017). In respect to the nutritive traits, moderate values were reported by Matias et al (2016) for narrow-sense heritability considering the mean of seven harvests in Brachiaria decumbens progenies for CP (0.31) and IVD (0.14).…”

“…Studies carried out by Entringer et al (2014) and Carvalho et al (2017) found satisfactory gains using both direct and indirect selection, since the traits showed favorable correlation. Falconer (1987) highlighted that indirect selection may promote greater gains; the same was evidenced by Pereira et al (2017), who studied the genus Paspalum.…”

“…In evaluating seed production of Dactylis glomerata L. populations, Şeker et al (2014) found high heritability values (0.64), which showed strong genetic control of the trait at an individual level, suggesting that environmental factors had a little effect on heredity. However, the selection efficacy depends not only on heritability but also on genetic advancement (Pereira et al, 2017). The high coefficient of genetic variation in conjunction with high heritability provides more information than other parameters alone (Shabanimofrad et al, 2013).…”
