Journal ArticleDOI
Marker-assisted selection strategy to pyramid two or more QTLs for quantitative trait-grain yield under drought
Arvind Kumar,Nitika Sandhu,Shalabh Dixit,Shailesh Yadav,B. P. M. Swamy,Noraziyah Abd Aziz Shamsudin,Noraziyah Abd Aziz Shamsudin +6 more
TL;DR: The identification of superior QTL classes and capture of positive QTL x QTL andQTL x background interactions in early generation and their consistent performance in subsequent generations across five backgrounds supports the efficacy of a combined MAS breeding strategy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of QTLs and possible candidate genes conferring sheath blight resistance in rice (Oryza sativa L.)
Shailesh Yadav,G. Anuradha,Ravi Ranjan Kumar,Lakshminaryana Reddy Vemireddy,Ravuru Sudhakar,Krishnaveni Donempudi,Durgarani Venkata,Farzana Jabeen,Yamini Kalinati Narasimhan,Balram Marathi,Balram Marathi,E. A. Siddiq +11 more
TL;DR: In order to map the quantitative trait loci (QTLs) governing the sheath blight resistance, two mapping populations (F2 and BC1F2) were developed from the cross BPT-5204/ARC10531 which expressed moderate level of resistance to the disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Marker Assisted Breeding to Develop Multiple Stress Tolerant Varieties for Flood and Drought Prone Areas
Nitika Sandhu,Nitika Sandhu,Shalabh Dixit,B. P. M. Swamy,Anitha Raman,Santosh Kumar,S. P. Singh,Ram Baran Yadaw,Onkar Singh,J. N. Reddy,Annamalai Anandan,Shailesh Yadav,Challa Venkataeshwarllu,Amelia Henry,Satish B. Verulkar,N.P. Mandal,T. Ram,Jyothi Badri,Prashant Vikram,Prashant Vikram,Arvind Kumar +20 more
TL;DR: The drought and submergence tolerant rice varieties with pyramided multiple QTLs can ensure 0.2 to 1.0 t ha− 1 under submergence conditions with no yield penalty under non-stress to farmers irrespective of occurrence of drought and/or flood in the same or different seasons.
Journal ArticleDOI
QTL Hotspots for Early Vigor and Related Traits under Dry Direct-Seeded System in Rice (Oryza sativa L.).
Uma M. Singh,Shailesh Yadav,Shilpi Dixit,P. Janaki Ramayya,M. Nagamallika Devi,K. Anitha Raman,Arvind Kumar +6 more
TL;DR: Trait relationships among the agro-physiological traits were examined to select the best genotypes for the given traits for use in future breeding programs and mutations were identified in the coding region of alpha-amylase precursor and ethylene-insensitive 3 gene between the parents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Marker Assisted Forward Breeding to Combine Multiple Biotic-Abiotic Stress Resistance/Tolerance in Rice.

Singh,Arvind Kumar +22 more
TL;DR: Developed ILs with seven to ten genes showed superiority to recurrent parent Swarna+drought for multiple-biotic stresses together with yield advantages of 1.0 t ha − 1 under drought condition, without adverse effect on grain quality traits under non-stress.
