Question
The heritability of the content of a defence compound, sideroxylonal, in Eucalyptus melliodora leaves is 0.8. A breeding population is selected from a common garden experiment. The overall mean was 20 milligrams per gram of dry weight (mg.g-1 dw), but the selected parents had an average of 35 mg.g-1 dw.
Question= The expected mean concentration (in mg.g-1 dw) of the offspring of these breeders is??

Table 6.2 shows the results of a greenhouse experiment which examined the effects of density on the germination and growth of barley. Plants were grown for two weeks in 10- cm diameter pots kept in identical environmental conditions and watered regularly. At the end of the experiment the plants were cropped by cutting the stems at the soil surface. Based from the given table and graph, discuss the data and the relationship of the two factors (Mean wet biomass of plants (g) and Number of plants that germinated). Then, what is the effect of density to the Mean wet biomass of plants?arrow_forward
