A genetically heterogeneous population of rice has a mean in the number of days to maturation of 30. Selection for decreased per
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

h² = 0.6

Explanation:

Before answering the question, we need to know a few concepts.

<u>Artificial selection</u> is the selecting practice of a specific group of organisms in a population -that carry the traits of interest- to be the parents of the following generations.

Parental individuals carrying phenotypic values of interest are selected from the whole population. These parents interbreed, and a new generation is produced.

<u>The selection differential, SD,</u> is the difference between the mean value of the trait in the population (X₀) and the mean value of the parents, (Xs). So,  

SD = X₀ - Xs

<u>Heritability in the strict sense, h²</u>, is the genetic component measure to which additive genetic variance contributes. The heritability might be used to determine how the population will respond to the selection done, R.  

h² = R/SD

The <u>response to selection (R) </u>refers to the metric value gained from the cross between the selected parents. R can be calculated by multiplying the heritability h², with the selection differential, SD.  

R = h²SD  

R also equals the difference between the new generation phenotypic value (X₁) and the original population phenotypic value (X₀),  

R = X₀ - X₁

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now that we know these concepts and how to calculate them, we can solve the proposed problem.

Available data:  

  • You are selecting rice´s decreased period of maturation.
  • The population of rice has a mean maturation time of 30 days → X₀
  • Parental selected average period to maturation is 25 days → Xs
  • F1 plants mature on average in 27 days → X₁
  • N arrow sense Heritability → h²

According to what we sow previously, we need to find out the value of h².

We know that h² = R/SD, so we need to get R and SD first.  

R = X₁ - X₀

R = 27 - 30

R = -3

SD = Xs -  X₀  

SD = 25 - 30

SD = -5

Knowing this, we can calculate h²

h² = R/SD

h² = -3/-5  

h² = 0.6
