Abstract

To select stable inheritable disomic substitution line from the filial generation of blue-grain wheat and common wheat high effectively, sequential GISH (genomic in situ hybridization) and multicolor FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridization) assay was used to investigate the number and characteristics of chromosome 4E in F4 and F6 hybrid offspring. The F4 and F6 plant were selected by the blue aleurone layer future, in which the bluegrain genes from Thinopyrum species were existed. GISH assay showed that the rate of stable inheritable disomic substitution line (blue-grain trait in common wheat) was above 80 percent in F6 plants, but lower in F4 plants. Specially, all of the F6 progenies of ‘qian 09206’, which was derived from crossing parents ‘0147’ and common wheat ’9938’, were homozygous disomic substitution lines. The sequential GISH-FISH assay showed that F4 progeny (B-228) from filial generation of ‘Neimai 10’ and ‘0147’ was a 4D/4E stable inheritable alien disomic substitution line. These results showed that the color based selection was not effective. However, combining color based selection with sequential GISH-FISH assay can improve wheat breeding efficiency.

Abstract

A field experiment was conducted in the Wielkopolska region at the Gorzyń Research Station, Poland (52.34°N, 15.54°E) in Central Europe. The study was conducted over a 3-year period (2017, 2018, 2019) as a two-factorial design with four replications in the RCBD. The aim of the research was to determine the effect of the cultivar (‘Bolero’, ‘Tytan’) and the inoculation (Nitragina–seeds inoculation, Nitroflora I–seeds inoculation, Nitroflora II–soil inoculation, HiStick® Lupin–seeds inoculation) on plant development, seeds chemical composition and yielding of narrow-leaved lupin. The weather conditions and experimental factors significantly influenced on productivity of narrow-leaved lupin ‘Tytan’. Drought during the growing season reduced seeds and protein yields. After inoculation of HiStck the seeds yield was significantly greater by 12.4% (p < 0.01) and the protein yield after application of Nitroflora I or HiStick by 13.9% (p < 0.01) and 19.2% (p < 0.01), respectively. Correlation coefficients showed strong relations between number of pods and seeds per plant in both cultivars regardless of the inoculation variant, however the strongest relations in both cultivar were proved on HiStick treatment.
