El-Kadi, D., E. - F. T., M. Koronfel, and A. Mohamed, "Biometrical analysis of a diallel cross of Egyptian cotton comprising seven parents", Egyptian Journal of Plant Breeding, vol. 17, no. 5, pp. 41–56, 2013. Abstract

A combining ability analysis was performed in F1's of half diallel crosses by crossing seven cotton (Gossypium barbadense L.) genotypes (Suvin, Karashenky, Australian, Giza 86, Giza 90, Giza 92 and Giza 93) following Griffing approach. The seven parents and their 21 diallel crosses were evaluated in a randomized complete blocks design with three replications at Sakha Station, Kafr El-Sheikh. According to analysis, the cross (Australian x Giza 86) showed highly significant values for both mid and better parent heterosis and also showed significant SCA effects, as well as its parent (Australian) genotype showed significant GCA effects for days to first flower, position of first node, seed and lint cotton yield. The cross (Karashenky x Giza 92) showed highly significant heterotic values for both mid and better parents and showed significant SCA effects for micronaire value and fiber length. The cross (Karashenky x Giza 86) showed positive and highly significant heterotic values for both mid and better parent for seed index and oil content. The ratio of GCA/SCA indicated that the GCA effects were more important than SCA effects for all studied traits, except seed and lint cotton yield. Heritability in broad sense (h2b) showed high values for all traits, indicating the low effect of environment on studied traits. Heritability in narrow sense (h2n) showed low values (<30 %) for fiber length and oil content, moderate value (30-50 %) for position of first node, lint percentage and seed index and high values (>50 %) for days to first flower and micronaire value.

3- كما اظهر الهجين (كراشنكي x جيزة 90) قوة هجين موجبه و ذات معنويه عاليه بالنسبه لكل من متوسط الابوين و افضل الاباء لصفتي معامل البذره و النسبه المئويه للزيت في البذره.

4- كما اظهرت كفاءه التوريث بالمعني الضيق قيم عاليه (أكبر من 50%) لقراءه الميكرونير و عدد الايام حتى ظهور اول زهره و قيم و سطيه (30 –50%) لارتفاع اول عقده ثمريه ومعامل البذره ونسبه تصافي الحليج كما اظهرت قيم منخفضه (أفل من50%) لطول التيله و النسبة المئويه للزيت في البذره.

5- الهجين (سيوفنx جيزة 92) يعتبر أفضل الهجن للاستخدام في برامج التربيه لزياده المحصول و محتوي الزيت من البذره.

6- الهجين (استرالي x جيزة 90) يعتبر أفضل الهجن للاستخدام في برامج التربيه لتحسين صفات التبكير.

7- الهجن (كراشنكي x جيزة 92) و (استرالي x جيزة 90) و (جيزة 90 xجيزة 93) يعتبروا أفضل الهجن للاستخدام في برامج التربيه لتحسين صفات الجودة.

A genotype-independent and efficient regeneration procedure for flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) was developed. Egyptian and Canadian flax explants (hypocotyls from 5-days-old seedling) rapidly proliferated to provide easy-to-root shoots within a few days on MS basal medium with Gamborg's vitamins and supplemented by 1.0 ppm kinetin and maintained in a controlled growth cabinet for a 16-h photoperiod at 20 ± 0.5oC with a light intensity of about 2000 lux provided by cool white fluorescent tubes. The formation of complete plants was then possible by transferring the shoot tips to hormone-free nutrient agar medium for rooting. This procedure was consistently the best for the four studied Egyptian cultivars and one Canadian cultivar. Besides rapid, genotypeindependent and efficient regeneration frequency, the present procedure has another advantage of avoiding callus formation, thereby reducing the incidence of somaclonal variation. This direct regeneration can be used for the vegetative propagation or cloning of a particular line of flax and for genetic transformation of flax.

Preliminary experiments showed that untransformed flax tissues did not contain genes conferring NPTII activity, which gave resistance to kanamycin. Thus, kanamycin seems to work well as an in vitro selective agent in fiber and dual use Egyptian flax cultivars as well as Canadian oilseed cultivars at a concentration of 200 ppm. This made it possible to use the kanamycin selection scheme to separate transformed from untransformed cells. Also, 250 ppm cefotaxime and 500 ppm carbencillin used in flax transformation system to suppress Agrobacterium growth, were found to be effective and safe for using, since their effects on regeneration were found negligible.
