Adzuki bean (Vigna angularis [Willd.] Ohwi & Ohashi) has recently become widely cultivated in Asia. Generally, it is sensitive to flooding stress. Wild relatives of adzuki bean have shown higher tolerances to abiotic stressors than cultivars, but their responses to flooding are not well understood. In this study, the waterlogging tolerance levels of 202 accessions from two cultivated Vigna species including V. angularis var. angularis (cultivated adzuki bean), V. umbellata (rice bean), and two wild ones consisting of V. angularis var. nipponensis (wild adzuki bean), and V. nakashimae, were evaluated at the early vegetative stage using a foliar damage score. Additionally, the responses of 119 accessions from V. angularis var. nipponesis bean and V. nakashimae to submergence at the germination stage were evaluated using germination-related traits. Among the tested species, cultivated adzuki bean showed the lowest tolerance to waterlogging, while V. nakashimae showed the greatest. At the germination stage, seeds of V. nakashimae were more tolerant of submergence than seeds of V. angularis var. nipponesis, exhibiting significantly higher normal seedling indexes. There was no significant correlation between the early vegetative-stage index and either germination-stage index for both V. angularis var. nipponensis and V. nakashimae, suggesting that the genetic bases regulating flooding stress responses at the two growth stages differ. However, we identified four V. nakashimae accessions that exhibited tolerant or very tolerant responses to flooding at both stages, suggesting their potential for use in breeding flood-tolerant adzuki bean varieties.

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] seed has poor storability under high temperature and high humidity. It loses viability in a relatively short time. Seed aging of stored soybeans leads to poor germination and a decrease in yield. The accelerated aging vigor test, which provides useful information for determining seed storability as well as field emergence potential, is a rapid aging experiment and could be used to determine soybean seed quality. This study was conducted to determine the seed viability of Korean soybean cultivars and soybean lines with altered fatty acid compositions under accelerated aging conditions. Results demonstrated that Songhagkong, a Korean soybean cultivar, was the most stable at 3, 4, and 5 days of accelerated aging conditions. Furthermore, two soybean lines with high stearic acid content exhibited >70.0% reduction rate, whereas three soybean lines with high oleic acid content exhibited 7.4%-11.8% reduction rates. Soybean lines with mid-oleic acid and elevated linolenic acid contents exhibited various reduction rates depending on genotypes. Therefore, these soybean lines can be used as breeding material for developing a new soybean cultivar with strong seed vigor and better storability under unfavorable conditions. Therefore, a genetic study on this soybean cultivar is warranted.

The anaerobic germination 1 (AG1) locus, which confers tolerance to the anaerobic germination of rice seed, has been previously identified and a gel-based InDel DNA marker developed for marker-assisted selection (MAS). However, there is a need for marker development for high-throughput genotyping in order to increase the breeding efficiency. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)-based Kompetitive Allele Specific PCR (KASP) markers enable high-accuracy and high-throughput analyses for the genotyping of AG1 locus. In the present study, we developed one AG1 InDel-specific and four flanking KASP markers, which can be used as the foreground and recombination markers, respectively, for the AG1 locus. Of those, three KASP markers developed were validated with Dasan-AG1 (BC₃F₂) segregating lines; the AG1 InDel-specific KASP marker was 100% consistent with the existing AG1 gel-based marker, while the two flanking markers showed 70.3 and 66.7 percent consistency to the AG1 gel-based marker, respectively. In addition, the five KASP markers developed were further used to genotype 78 Korean and 95 foreign rice varieties. The genotyping results with 172 varieties revealed that most of the Korean varieties possessed the AG1 locus; however, a wide variation was observed in the foreign varieties for AG1 locus. Hence, the KASP markers developed for AG1 locus show promise as useful tools for expediting the breeding of varieties tolerant to anaerobic germination stress via high-throughput genotyping.

Salinity stress is one of the important abiotic stresses in crops. In this study, ten different concentrations of NaCl solutions were tested to determine the optimal level of NaCl concentration for salinity tolerance test at the germination stage in peanut, and 0.6% NaC1 was suitable for the test. A total of 249 peanut accessions were tested with 0.6% NaC1 and radical root lengths of the accessions were measured. The results showed that there were significant genetic variations on the tolerance to salinity stress among the tested accessions. Through a Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) using the Axiom_Arachis array with 58K SNPs, three putative SNPs with significant relation to radicle root length were identified on chromosomes Aradu.A03, Araip.B01, and Araip.B05.

Interspecific hybrids of eggplants (Salanum species) are of prime concern to breeders, as they allow introgression of useful genes from wild species to cultivated ones. However, successful hybridization between species is usually very low. This hampers development of improved hybrids. In-vitro culture techniques may be used to overcome interspecific barriers. Seeds and excised embryos obtained from two crosses (Solanum (S.) melongena × S. torvum and S. melongena × S. anguivi) were inoculated on Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium supplemented with varying concentrations of 3-indoleacetic acid (IAA) and 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP). Addition of hormones in the culture medium significantly (P < 0.05) improved root and shoot emergence, seed germination and seedling survival. However, excised embryos cultured on the same medium did not develop. Hybrid seeds cultured on MS medium supplemented with different concentrations of IAA and BAP germinated within 6-14 days (SM001-07 × ST004-03) and 4-10 days (SM001-07 × San005-01). Optimal concentration of IAA and BAP for seed germination and seedling survival depended on hybrid type. Regenerated plantlets were successfully transferred to the field after initial acclimatization. High levels of heterosis observed for number of seeds/fruit and fruit breadth suggested an opportunity for developing F₁ hybrids with desirable fruit characters for improved fruit yield.

Wheat is globally an important cereal crop. Environmental stress, especially drought stress can play an important role in the reduction of plant growth, specifically during germination in arid and semi-arid regions. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) treated hydroponic conditions create negative osmotic potential which is compared with moisture deficit stress. The main
objective
of this study was to investigate the effects of PEG 6000 induced moderate osmotic stress on germination indices of 22 wheat varieties. In order to study the effects of osmotic stress on germination indices in wheat cultivars, an experiment was conducted, using a completely randomized design with three replications under two different levels of PEG-6000: 0% and 10%. PEG stress significantly reduced percent germination, shoot length and root length. PEG stress significantly increased root-shoot ratio and oven dry weight. Principal component analysis revealed response of traits of tolerant wheat varieties under osmotic stress. Correlation study revealed the significant relationships among germination indices. The variety BARI Gom-30 recorded comparatively higher root length (6 cm), shoot length (7.8 cm), root-shoot ratio (1.37) followed by the variety Sonalika whereas the variety Kalaysona recorded the lowest root length (2.7 cm) and shoot length (2.8 cm) under PEG stress. Evolved information of this research including selected traits such as germination percentage, root-shoot ratio and dry weight of seedlings could be exploited in wheat breeding program for drought and osmotic stress tolerance.

There is a growing preference for using doubled haploids (DHs) in maize breeding programs because they reduce the time required to generate and evaluate new lines to 2 years or less. However, there is an urgent need for efficient techniques that accurately discriminate between haploid and diploid maize kernels. Here, we investigate the effects of several hormones and chemicals on the germination of haploid and diploid maize kernels, including auxin, cytokinin, ethylene, abscisic acid (ABA) biosynthesis inhibitor (fluridone), ABA catabolism inhibitor (diniconazole), methyl jasmonate (MeJA), and NaCl. Ethylene effectively stimulated the germination of both haploid and diploid maize kernels. The ABA biosynthesis inhibitor fluridone, the ABA catabolism inhibitor diniconazole, and MeJA selectively stimulated the germination of haploid maize kernels. By contrast, gibberellin, 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), kinetin, and NaCl inhibited the germination of both haploid and diploid maize kernels. These results indicate that the germination of haploid maize kernels is selectively stimulated by fluridone and diniconazole, and suggest that ABA-mediated germination of haploid maize kernels differs from that of diploid maize kernels and other plant seeds.

Maize (Zea mays L.) is a crop in a tropical region which resists growing under sensitive temperature. This study was conducted to evaluate the performance of Canadian maize inbred lines under controlled cold stress conditions (5°C, 10°C, and 23°C). Data were recorded by measuring germination rate, index, root length, and seed vigour index values. Five higher and three lower tolerant inbred lines were shortlisted. The data were analyzed using analysis of variance, while mean values were compared using Tukey’s Honest Significant Difference Test at α=0.05 and at α=0.01. Using Genstat software, correlation was done. A strong correlation (P<0.05) was found between germination rate and germination index under all stress conditions. Root length and vigour index were also strongly correlated with germination rate under 5°C stress condition and compared to 10°C and 23°C stress conditions. Our results suggested that five (CO439, CO438, CO450, CO435, and CO445) among 22 maize inbred lines performed better under 5°C cold stress condition and thus had the potential to develop maize hybrids to increase grain yield under environmentally stressful conditions in South Korea.

The increased severity and frequency of flooding is causing greater yield reductions in most rice-growing areas. To address this, popular cultivars were improved through introgression of SUB1, an FR13A-derived QTL conferring submergence tolerance at the vegetative stage, using marker-assisted backcrossing (MABC). Ciherang-Sub1, one of these improved near isogenic lines (NILs), showed significantly higher tolerance compared to the original cultivar while retaining its desirable agronomic qualities. However, due to the current shift to direct seeding, seed germination may also be adversely affected by flooding; thus the addition of major QTLs which can confer anaerobic germination (AG) tolerance will be highly beneficial. The AG tolerance QTL, qAG-9-2, also referred to as AG1, derived from Khao Hlan On, a Myanmar landrace, has been introgressed into the elite cultivar IR64 to produce IR64-AG1. This research focused on the transfer of AG1 to Ciherang-Sub1 via MABC, using IR64-AG1, a closely-related donor. Introgression of AG1 and recovery of the Ciherang genome was done in two backcross generations followed by one generation of selfing. The use of a closely-related donor shortened the development period to two years which could have been further reduced if a larger BC₁F₁ population had been used. Phenotypic evaluation showed that introgression of AG1 significantly increased AG tolerance compared to Ciherang-Sub1, and that the newly developed Ciherang-Sub1+AG1 retained the submergence tolerance from SUB1. The approach is very promising for faster development of improved lines using closely-related cultivars or improved lines as donors for introducing key traits.
