Sunflower Genetics from Ancestors to Modern Hybrids-A Review
(Basel : MDPI, 2018)
Domestication and the first steps of sunflower breeding date back more than 4000 years. As an interesting crop to humans, sunflower underwent significant changes in the past to finally find its place as one of the most ...
Selection of sunflower hybrids based on stability across environments
(Društvo genetičara Srbije, Beograd, 2019)
Bearing in mind that the sunflower production in Serbia is extensive, it is very important to select a hybrid that will achieve stable and high seed and oil yields in different enviromental conditions. The objective of the ...
Resistance evaluation of different inbreds and hybrids of sunflower to broomrape (Orobanche cumana wallr.) / Procena otpornosti različitih inbred linija i hibrida suncokreta na volovod (Orobanche cumana wallr.)
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2013)
Resistance to broomrape of different inbred lines, hybrids and hybrid combinations of sunflower was investigated. The trial for this experiment, which was set at 6 locations on territory of Bačka, included set of differential ...
Review of 40 years of research carried out in Serbia on sunflower pollination
(EDP Sciences S A, Les Ulis Cedex A, 2017)
Sunflower pollination has been a subject of research for more than 40 years at the Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops in Novi Sad, Serbia. Since the first experiments in 1970s, the importance of climatic conditions was ...
Exploring environmental determinants of the geographic distribution of broomrape (Orobanche cumana Wallr.)
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2012)
Broomrape is one of the most critical biotic constraints to sunflower crop production. In the most extended sunflower crop area of the world, distributed across Black sea region, this parasitic weed shows a high occurrence. ...
New genetic variability in sunflower inbred lines created by mutagenesis
(Natl Agricultural Research & Development Inst, Fundulea, 2015)
The successful use of plant breeding for improving desirable traits requires the existence of genetic variability for these traits. Induced mutations are often used to create new genetic variability within a plant species. ...
Significance of cytogenetic research in sunflower and rapeseed breeding / Značaj citogenetskih istraživanja u oplemenjivanju suncokreta i uljane repice
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2010)
Cytogenetic research of sunflower and rapeseed has a century long tradition. Chromosome number and morphology were studied at first in species from the Helianthus and Brassica genera, and than their cytotaxonomy and ...
Screening wild sunflower species and F1 interspecific hybrids for resistance to broomrape
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2010)
Broomrape has become one of the most important threats to the cultivated sunflower. New sources of resistance genes are needed to maintain sunflower production. The objective of this research was to evaluate accessions of ...
Radiosensitivity of sunflower inbred lines to mutagenesis
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2011)
For much of the past century, mutagenesis has gained popularity in plant genetics research as a means of inducing novel genetic variation. Induced mutations have been applied for the past 40 years to produce mutant cultivars ...
Development of sunflower genotypes resistant to downy mildew
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2010)
Sunflower is attacked by more than 40 different diseases of which only a certain number causes serious reduction of seed yield. One of the most damaging diseases is downy mildew, which is caused by the fungus Plasmopara ...
