Abstract
Background. Development of adaptable high-yielding cultivars of common oat (Avena sativa L.) for the unstable climate of the Northern Trans-Urals requires the involvement of new donors of valuable genes in breeding practice and an in-depth study into the inheritance patterns of useful agronomic traits. The objective was to determine the effect of heterosis and the type of phenotypic dominance for the main quantitative characters in first-generation (F1) hybrids of common oat under the soil and climate conditions of the Northern Trans-Urals.
Materials and methods. In 2023–2024, fourteen hybrid combinations (F1) from crosses between local cultivars (‘Tobolyak’, ‘Otrada’, and ‘Foma’) and donors of crown rust resistance genes (Pc) were studied in the forest-steppe zone of Tyumen Province. The tests were carried out in the experimental field of the Research Institute of Agriculture for the Northern Trans-Ural Region and the laboratory of genomics research in crop production using VIR’s guidelines. Phenotypic dominance coefficients (Hp) and true heterosis values were calculated.
Results. It was found that extreme temperatures up to +36°C during the hybridization period (2023) limited grain setting. In 2024, all the studied hybrids manifested the effect of heterosis simultaneously in four plant characters: plant height, panicle length, grain number per plant, and grain weight per plant. Positive overdominance for all useful agronomic traits was observed in the combinations ‘Tobolyak’ × ‘AC Francis’, ‘AC Francis’ × ‘Foma’, and Narps × ‘Otrada’; negative overdominance was shown by k-15021 × ‘Tobolyak’, and ‘Otrada’ × k-15021.
Conclusions. Promising combinations were identified for a set of traits and the highest hybrid vigor: ‘Tobolyak’ × ‘AC Francis’, ‘AC Francis’ × ‘Foma’, ‘Foma’ × k-15021, and Narps × ‘Otrada’. These genotypes are recommended for further breeding work as sources of high productivity and adaptability.
