B73 i srodne linije u oplemenjivanju kukuruza

Inbred lines B73 and Mol7 or some versions thereof are the most commonly used parental pair in the development of medium late and late maize hybrids in Serbia and Montenegro. Because of the ever-increasing importance of line B73 in maize hybrid production, we chose several B73-type lines and a few unrelated lines and crossed them. Using the pedigree method, progenies were developed up to the S6 generation. The grain yield potential of test crosses with Mo 17 inbred tester, as well as ear length, number of grain rows per ear and 1,000-grain mass of lines per-se were tested. Among the new inbred lines related to B73, line 260277/2 distinguished itself by a high potential for grain yield when crossed with Mo 17. Inbred lines 260465/1, 260362/1, 260747/4, 260357/13, 260151/2 and 260156/2 had a significantly longer ear than the mean value of all progenies. Compared with progeny mean, lines 260341/7, 260317/4, 260277/2 and 260187/2 had significantly more grain rows per ear, while 260362/1, 260130/5, 260277/2, 260151/2 and 260187/2 had a significantly larger 1,000-grain mass.Inbred linije B73 i Mol7 ili njihove verzije su najviše korišćeni roditeljski par za stvaranje srednjekasnih i kasnih hibrida kukuruza kod nas. Zbog stalno rastućeg značaja linije B73 za proizvodnju hibrida kukuruza odabrali smo nekoliko linija tipa B73, kao i nekoliko ne srodnih linija i međusobno ih ukrstili. Pedigre metodom su razvijena potomstva do S6 generacije. Linije su ispitivane na prinos zrna u test ukrštanjima sa inbred testerom linijom Mol7, kao i na: dužinu klipa, broj redova zrna na klipu i masu 1000 zrna perse. Medu novim inbred linijama srodnim liniji B73 ističe se linija 260277/2 sa visokim potencijalom za prinos zrna u ukrštanju sa inbred linijom Mol7. Inbred linije 260465/1, 260362/1, 260747/4, 260357/13, 260151/2 i 260156/2 imaju značajno duži klip od proseka svih potomstava. Inbred linije 260341/7, 260317/4, 260277/2 i 260187/2 imaju značajno veći broj redova od proseka svih potomstava. Inbred linije 260362/1, 260130/5, 260277/2, 260151/2 i 260187/2 imaju značajno veću masu 1000 zrna od proseka svih potomstava

Developing self-modifying code model

This paper presents the technology of constructing and linearization of binary program utilized for program generation, analysis and transformation into a self-modifying code. An example model of the self-modifying software system and its experimental application in vehicle control have been presented in this paper. The module responsible for vehicle control comprising two subsystems has been created within the simulation software. The first subsystem has emerged through the classical software process developed by a human-programmer. The second subsystem has been created as a result of a separate piece of software substituting the part of a programmer in a software process part. The result of this approach is software creation in conjunction with natural and Artificial Intel- ligence in addition to experimental integration into the vehicle control system

Suzbijanje korova u združenoj setvi useva pasulja i kukuruza tolerantnog na cikloksidim

Due to the narrow range of available herbicides, weeds are one of the limiting factors for intercropping of dry bean and maize. Various benefits of this production method have been confirmed by the results of many authors. The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility of using a cycloxydim-tolerant maize hybrid to expand the ability of weed control in intercroping systems with bean. Three-year field trials were conducted from 2015 to 2017, at the Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops in the vicinity of Novi Sad. Cycloxydim-tolerant maize and dry bean were sown mechanically in alternating strips, with one strip consisting of 4 rows of maize and the other strip containing 6 rows of bean. Combinations of herbicides based on dimethenamid-P, linuron, bentazone and cycloxydim were studied. The effect of herbicides on the number of weeds, fresh weed mass and grain yield of bean and maize was evaluated. No phytotoxicity of the herbicides was observed on the crops, indicating the safety of their use in this production system. The most common weeds were Chenopodium album, Datura stramonium and Sorghum halepense developed from rhizomes. Herbicides had a significant effect in reducing the abundance and fresh mass of the above-ground weed parts. A special contribution of the results obtained is the unique ability to control S. halepense using the cycloxydim-based product. Owing to the above-mentioned possibility, a significant reduction in the number and mass of S. halepense shoots developed from rhizomes was achieved (100% in 2015 and 2016, and >90% in 2017). The results of our trials confirm the contribution of the extension of the choice of herbicides with cycloxydim in this system of intercropping with dry bean and cycloxydim-tolerant maize.Zbog uske palete raspoloživih herbicida, korovi su jedan od ograničavajućih činilaca za gajenje združenih useva pasulja i kukuruza. Cilj rada je bio da se ispita mogućnost korišćenja hibrida kukuruza tolerantnog na cikloksidim radi proširenja mogućnosti suzbijanja travnih korova pri združenom gajenju sa pasuljem. Trogodišnja ispitivanja su obavljena od 2015. do 2017. godine, na oglednom polju Instituta za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo u Novom Sadu. Pasulj i kukuruz tolerantan na cikloksidim posejani su mehanizovano u naizmenične trake, pri čemu su jednu traku sačinjavala 4 reda kukuruza, a drugu traku 6 redova pasulja. Ispitivane su kombinacije herbicida na bazi dimetenamida-P, linurona, bentazona i cikloksidima. Ocenjen je uticaj herbicida na broj i svežu masu korova i prinos zrna pasulja i kukuruza. U ogledima nije zabeležena fitotoksičnost herbicida prema usevima pasulja i kukuruza, ukazujući na pouzdanost njihove upotrebe u ovom sistemu proizvodnje. Najzastupljeniji korovi u ogledima bili su: Chenopodium album, Datura stramonium i Sorghum halepense iz rizoma. Ispitivani herbicidi su ostvarili značajan efekat u smanjenju brojnosti i sveže mase nadzemnog dela korova. Poseban doprinos dobijenih rezultata ogleda su u jedinstvenoj mogućnosti primene preparata na bazi cikloksidima, čime je ostvarena značajna redukcija brojnosti i mase izdanaka S. halepense iz rizoma (100% u 2015. i 2016. godini, a >90% u 2017. godini). Ovim je potvrđen značajan doprinos u proširenju palete herbicida sa cikloksidimom u ovom sistemu združenog gajenja pasulja i kukuruza tolerantnog na cikloksidim
