Inbreeding depression of 28 maize elite open pollinated varieties

Abstract: The study of inbreeding depression is important for breeding strategies such as use of inbred progenies or extraction of inbreed lines. A diallel of 28 maize open-pollinated varieties was evaluated in 10 environments in the early 1990s. At the same time, S 1 populations for each of the 28 varieties were evaluated in the same 10 experiments (environments). Yield reductions of the populations from S 0 to S 1 (mean of the 10 environments), varied from 34.6% (CMS-01) to 59.2% (CMS-30), with an average of 49.1%. In… Show more

“…De Léon et al (1998) verificaram I% mais baixos, de 6% a 9%, em híbridos duplos para produtividade. Pacheco et al (2002) obtiveram para produtividade de grãos, em variedades elite de milho, estimativa de depressão por endogamia que variou de 34,6% a 59,2%, com média de 49,1%, confirmando que o baixo valor de I% é esperado em população melhorada por causa de sua baixa frequência de alelos deletérios, devida ao processo de seleção já ocorrido.…”

“…Sobre depressão endogâmica e constituição genética das populações, os autores Viana et al (1982), Lima et al (1984) e Pacheco et al (2002) citam que a carga genética baixa é esperada nas populações sintetizadas a partir de linhagens endogâmicas e de compostos de base genética ampla que já passaram por processo de seleção contra alelos deletérios, quando comparadas com aquelas populações de alta heterozigosidade nunca expostas a quaisquer níveis de endogamia. De Léon et al (1998) O melhoramento de populações visa essencialmente ao aumento da frequência dos genes favoráveis nas populações base.…”

“…The difference between the panmitic population mean (S0) and the population mean after one generation of self-pollination (S1) is an estimate of inbreeding depression Berdahl and Ray, 2004). There are many studies related to the effects of inbreeding depression using S1 populations in several species of plants (MenaAli et al, 2008;Zaffar et al, 2001;Rojas et al, 2009;Berdahl and Ray, 2004;Pacheco et al, 2002). For instance, Rojas et al (2009) quantified the inbreeding depression for different traits in eight S1 cassava families and analyzed the variation within these eight groups of S1 families.…”

“…Berdahl and Ray (2004) determined the value of one generation of self-pollinating before selection for yield in crested wheatgrass, and yields were compared for synthetic populations derived from selection among and within S1 and open-pollinated progenies. In maize, Pacheco et al (2002) studied the inbreeding depression using a diallel experiment of 28 maize elite open-pollinated varieties. In that study, yield reductions of the populations from S0 to S1 (mean of the 10 environments) varied from 34.6% to 59.2%, with an average of 49.1%.…”

“…The wide range of maize cultivars on the market is extremely favorable for Brazilian agriculture, because it leads to constant improvements in yield and quality (Ramalho et al 2009). The main maize breeding goals focus on yield and yield-related factors, such as uniformity, stability and adaptability (Pacheco et al 2002). Subsequently, breeding became a major driving force of the high increase of maize yield in Brazil.…”
