Heritability Estimates and Response to Selection for Resistance to Mycosphaerella Blight in Pea
2007-11-01
Abstract excerpt
Resistance to Mycosphaerella pinodes in field pea (Pisum sativum L) is a quantitative trait, and expression of resistance is substantially influenced by environment. The disease reaction to mycosphaerella blight of four crosses (F₂:₄ and F₂:₅ populations) was assessed in field trials at Vegreville, AB, Canada. Broad-sense heritability of resistance was quite high (0.62–0.81). Narrow-sense (realized) heritability w...
