Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Additive genetic effects accounted for 99% of variation in percent heat injury in Population 2 in both years.
- Observation In Population 1, additive effects explained 56% of significant genetic variation in percent heat injury in 1980.
- Observation In Population 1, additive effects explained 96% of variation in percent heat injury in 1981.
- Observation In Population 1, dominance effects explained 3% of variation in percent heat injury in 1981.
- Observation Percent heat injury was quantitatively inherited in both soybean populations.
- Observation A major gene or genes appeared to influence percent heat injury in Population 1.
- Recommendation The authors proposed pure line or recurrent selection as effective for increasing membrane thermostability in these populations.
- Observation Actual F(,2) plant selection in Population 2 produced a 5% mean gain toward decreased heat injury.
- Observation Predicted F(,3) family selection in Population 2 showed an 11% mean gain toward decreased heat injury.
