    Notes: Two landrace accessions of amaranth, UCC 192 (Amaranthus cruentus) and UCH 213 (A. hypochondriacus), were used in a mass selection experiment; five per cent of the tallest and highest yielding plants in both populations were selected for three cycles. Selection gain was largest in the first cycle for both traits. Realized heritability estimates for plant height were C.22 in the UCC 192 population and 0.49 in UCH 213, and 0.09 in both populations for yield. The results supported earlier findings for the existence of genetic variability within amaranth landrace populations.

    Notes: New crop development often depends on a few essential traits such as nonshattering of seed at maturity and pollination control. In order to domesticate Limnanthes alba (meadowfoam), as a source of industrial oil, we performed genetic analysis of crosses between L. alba and its closest relative Limnanthes gracilis var. gracilis which shows higher selfing ability and nutlet abscission. Differences in pubescence, nutlet abscission, and seedling pigmentation were each found to be governed primarily by a single locus; two interacting loci appeared to control capsule dehiscence. Segregation distortion was detected for pigmentation in F2 and F3 populations, and for pubescence in several F3 families. Loci controlling pubescence, nutlet abscission, and capsule dehiscence resided in a single linkage block which assorted independently of the locus controlling pigmentation.
