Abstract
Vapa Lj. (1985): The inheritance of gliadins in wheat mutant and Lr lines. - Genetika, Vol. 17, No. 2, 91-96.
The inheritance of gliadins in mutant lines of Triticum aestivum (variety San Pastore) and Lr lines was investigated. The results of electrophoretic analyses of the F2 generation show that the inheritance of seven gliadin components was controlled by three gene blocks.

Abstract
Mišević D., Alexander D.E., Dumanović J. and Ratković S. (1985): Recurrent selection for percent oil in corn. - Genetika, Vol. 17, No. 2, 97-106
Twenthy-five cycles of combined inter- and intra-ear selection for percent oil were practiced in Alexho Synthetic and four in populations YUSSS and DS7U.
Mean percent oil of the 25th cycle was 247% of the original mean in Alexho Synthetic. Means of the fourth cycles of populations YUSSS and DS7U were 51% and 77% of the original means, respectively.
Average change per cycle of selection in percent oil was 0.43%, 0.48% and 0.78% for Alexho Synthetic, YUSSS and DS7U, respectively. Realized heritability of percent oil in Alexho Synthetic was 0.27 and 0.29 for intra-ear and combined inter- and intra-ear selection respectively. Realized heritability in population YUSSS was 0.45 and 0.46 in DS7U.
Calculated inbreeding coefficient of the 25th cycle of Alexho Synthetic was 0.17.

Abstract
Sinha B.C., Saha B.C. and Roy R.P. (1985): Selection schemes in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) - Genetika, Vol. 17, No. 2, 107-118.
Selection schemes were prepared on the basis of genotypic correlation and path coefficient analysis, showing different stages of selection through diagrams in two crosses of barley, namely, BR31 x BM4 and K69 x Ratna. In both the crosses, it was suggested that rigorous selection should be made for higher number of grains per spike and longer spike among them in the first and second stages of selection. In the third stage, plants with higher 1000 grain weight in BR31 x BM4 and fewer days to heading in K69 x Ratna should be selected. In the cross BR31 x BM4, the fourth stage of selection should be on the basis of increased number of tillers per plant and finally for fewer days to heading, while in K69 x Ratna the fourth and final stage of selection should be on the basis of higher 1000 grain weight.

Abstract
Kralj, D. (1985): Hop (Humulus lupulm L.) breeding in Slovenia. - Genetika, Vol. 17, No. 2, 119-128.
Methods and results of hop breeding in Slovenia have been investigated. Relations of the additive and nonadditive genetic variance of the inheritance of important properties have been determined. The applicable value of crossing prognosis based on known combining ability of parental generations is great. Recombinations in F1 generations have been selected. The aim of breeding is to select a hybrid similar to the traditional hops, but with a higher yield and tolerance for machine picking. The next aim is to select a lower biotype of hops.

Abstract
Sharma, R.C., Payak, M.M. and Agrawal, K.N. (1985): Inheritance of resistance to common rust of maize. - Genetika, Vol. 17, No. 2, 129-133.
Combining ability analysis of eight parental lines and their 28 F1 crosses (reciprocals mixed) with varying rust reactions revealed that both general combining ability and specific combining ability played a role in the expression of resistance to this disease. However, higher genetic variance due to general combining ability suggested that it was playing a greater role. Lines GE440, C (Co-ordinated) M (Maize) 105 and CM104 were observed to be highly resistant and good general combiners for transmitting resistance. General combining ability was more variable over locations/environments. Multi-location testing, therefore, is considered necessary before formulating a breeding programme for exploiting additive or non-additive gene effect.

STUDY ON HETEROSIS AND INBREEDING DEPRESSION OF GRAIN YIELD AND ITS COMPONENTS IN HYBRID POPULATIONS INVOLVING WHEAT CULTIVARS AND OTHER EMMER SPECIES

Abstract
Raghavaiah, P. and Joshi, M.G. (1985): Study on heterosis and inbreeding depression of grain yield and its components in hybrid populations involving durum wheat cultivars and other emmer species. - Genetika, Vol. 17, No. 2, 135-148.
This study on heterosis, inbreeding depression, residual heterosis and heritability was undertaken for the evaluation of emmer' species in a line x tester design involving durum and some emmer species of Triticum. Some of the combinations of the lines viz. T. polonicum and T. turgidum - 67A using durum cultivars as testers retained a significant part of the heterosis in F2 with respect to important yield components viz. grain weight/ear, grain number/ear, 1000 grain weight, ear weight and spikelet number per spike. It was interesting to note that both the forms of T. carthlicum exhibited heterotic effects for 1000 grain weight, grain number per ear and yield, although the grain weight of these species is low. The hybrids; involving the forms of T. turgidum, T. carthlicum and T. turanicum with all the four testers viz. Malavika, Raj. 911, Sel. 498 and Jori, showed early heading. Such transgressive segregation is of great practical importance. Quite a number of hybrids exhibited significant heterosis followed by low inbreeding depression in F2 and high heritability values for important yield components and grain yield itself. The importance of these results from the point of view of improvement of durum wheat through the use of other emmer species is discussed.

Abstract
Marinković, D. (1985): Genetic polymorphism and dynamics of developmental processes. - Genetika, Vol. 17, No. 2, 191-205.
A number of experimental analyses of ontogenetical variation in different organisms, which have been studied from a population genetic point of view is presented in the paper. One of such complex fitness traits which may manifest developmental adaptations as a consequence of structural and regulatory gene variation is the rate of development of individuals of a species. This has been studied with an attempt to determine the complexity of its genetic control. Four different approaches were used, with D. melanogaster flies as an appropriate experimental material. Short scale intensive selection (1) for three different classes of embryonic and preadult development has been performed, and they were analysed at chromosomal (2), allozymic (3), and enzyme activity level (4).

Abstract
Konstantinov, Kosana and Denić, M.: Evaluation of the relationship between maize genotypes using clones og genomic DNA.. - Genetika, Vol. 17, No. 2, 207-213.
Two genomic clones from maize DNA have been used to probe chromosomal DNA from different maize inbred lines and hybrids. The inbred lines had kernels of both dent and flint type. Hybrids between some of those lines were also investigated and hybrids from different FAO groups of maturation were compared. Inbred lines, which were genetically divergent, showed quantitative differences in the hybridization intensity when LC1 clone was used as the probe. In the hybrid combination, the intensity of fragment hybridisation was the some as in one parental line. When LC2 clone was used as the probe the intensity of hybridisation was in some way dependent on the level of expression of heterotic effect.
