19 Aug Role of biometrics in crop improvement
फसल सुधार में बायोमेट्रिक्स की भूमिका To create a significant hypothesis from plant data, statistical algorithm may be utilized. The biometric genetics is very useful to extract the significant information for crop improvement. The study of genetic variability within species and between species, relationship among the phenotypic traits, contribution of independent traits to dependent traits. All this exclusive information may derived by the help of biometrical techniques like analysis of variance, correlation study, path analysis, principal component analysis etc. फसल सुधार में बायोमेट्रिक्स की भूमिका In the year 2010, the world’s population was estimated to be more than 6.8 billion people. The United Nations projects that the world population will surpass 7 billion in 2012 and reach 9 billion by 2050. Feeding those billions of additional people will be a major challenge for agriculture in next few decades. Crop plants will have to provide most of the calories and nutrients required for world’s future population. The genetic analysis of complex characteristics such as the oil content of corn is known as quantitative genetics. Statistical analysis has many applications ensuring the validity and reproducibility of plant breeding and genetics research. We must use statistical procedures that have been developed for analyzing complex characteristics. “Biometrics is the science that deals with the applications of...
