Assessment of Heritability and Genetic Advance in Segregating Generations of Rice (Oryza sativa L.) for Grain Yield and Yield Contributing Traits under Upland Conditions

V. B. Rana, Soumyanetra Saha, R. K. Patel, V. P. Patel, V. B. Patel, Kaushal Modha, Naresh Chaudhary & M. R. Prajapati · Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology · 2025

The study was conducted during the Kharif season of 2024 under upland conditions at the Regional Rice Research Station, N.A.U., Vyara, to evaluate narrow-sense heritability and genetic gain from the segregating generations of four distinct rice crosses, namely NVSR 2565 × NVSR 22...

Phylogenetic Insights of Phytochrome A Homologs in Legumes

Soumyanetra Saha, V. B. Rana, Kaushal Modha, V. B. Patel, R. K. Patel & D. A. Chauhan · Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology · 2025

Phytochromes are the best characterized photoreceptors that perceive Red (R)/Far- Red (FR) signals and mediate key developmental responses in plants. It is well established that photoperiodic control of flowering is regulated by PHY A (phytochrome A) gene. So far, the members of...

The Science of Bloom: A Review on Exploring the Photoperiod Responsive Flowering Pathway

Soumyanetra Saha, V. B. Rana, Kaushal Modha & R. K. Patel · Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology · 2024

Different plant species have evolved distinct needs for endogenous and external stimuli to trigger flowering. These disparate requirements were initially believed to be the result of various molecular pathways. Cultivars must precisely modify flowering times based on local photop...

Integrating Molecular Markers for Screening of Salinity Tolerance in Rice Genotypes

M. R. Prajapati, R. K. Patel, V. P. Patel, V. B. Patel, K. G. Modha, Madhu Bala, D. P. Patel, A. V. Patel, Harshita Patel, G. M. Patel, Naresh Chaudhry, Sunil Patel & V. B. Rana · Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology · 2024

This study assessed the genetic diversity among fifteen rice germplasms, including selected landraces, wild species, released cultivars, improved lines and standard tolerant/susceptible check varieties, using the Saltol QTL and other salt stress-associated SSR markers. The analys...
