Portuguese to English: Implications of the post hoc blocking row–col technique on the intrapopulational improvement of the passion fruit General field: Science Detailed field: Agriculture
Source text - Portuguese Resumo
A técnica post hoc blocking row col (RC) é uma alternativa para a avaliação das variáveis, a qual permite maior acurácia no tratamento das características fenotipadas na população. Foram avaliadas 135 famílias de irmãos completos oriundas do programa de melhoramento do maracujazeiro azedo da Unemat. Os tratamentos foram alocados em em blocos casualizados, com três repetições e três plantas por parcela. As variáveis avaliadas foram: DFL, PROD, MF, NF, CF, DF, FF, EC, PP, CP, SS, ATT e RATIO. O procedimento da técnica RC seguiu a distribuição de 28 linhas e 28 colunas. Para comparação das expressões matemáticas foi empregado o teste baseado no qui-quadrado e o critério de informação de akaike (AIC), a fim de se comparar o desempenho do modelo. Os componentes de variância e outros parâmetros como eficiência relativa, herdabilidade, acurácia e variância do erro de predição foram obtidos estimados via Reml. A técnica RC apresentou melhor ajuste dos dados em relação ao delineamento em blocos casualizados original para as características NF, MF e ATT. Os valores de herdabilidade, acurácia e PEV encontrados nesse estudo e classificados como moderados a superiores para todas as características, implica de modo positivo no melhoramento intrapopulacional do maracujazeiro azedo. A técnica post-hoc blocking row-col (RC) proporcionou maior captação de variação do erro através de suas fontes adicionais, linha e coluna, que impacta diretamente na precisão do experimento, podendo ser recomendadada para o melhoramento genético do maracujazeiro azedo.
Translation - English Abstract
The post hoc blocking row-col technique is an alternative for the evaluation of variables, allowing the improvement of selection reliability in the treatment of agronomical traits of a population. A total of 135 full-sib progenies from the Unemat’s passion fruit breeding program were evaluated. Treatments were placed in randomized complete block designs with three replications and three plants per plot. The procedure for the post hoc blocking row-col technique followed a distribution of 28 rows and 28 columns. The chi-square test and akaike’s information criterion were used to compare model performance. Components of variance and other parameters such as relative efficiency, heritability, selection reliability and variance of the prediction error were estimated by means of restricted maximum likelihood. The post hoc blocking row-col technique presented better adjustment of the data when compared to the original, randomized block design, for mass, number of fruits, and total soluble solids traits. Values of heritability, selection reliability and prediction error variance found in this study, and classified as moderate to superior for all traits, positively impact in the intra-population improvement of passion fruit. The post-hoc blocking row-col (RC) technique improved the identification of error variation through its additional sources of row and column, directly impacting the precision of the experiment, and can be recommended for the genetic improvement of passion fruit.

Bio
Hello, I'm Maria Carolina and I am a translator of English - Portuguese (Brazil)
I am a native Brazilian Portuguese speaker and I have been involved with English for many years. I have already lived in US (1+ year) while working with agricultural research . I use English on my daily work and I have also taught English classes.
I have a background in Agronomy, a PhD in Agricultural Engineering, and I have worked as a researcher and university professor in this area. During this period I led and participated in many research projects and I was responsible for their translation from Portuguese into English for publication on relevant scientific international journals.
I have been working as freelance translator for technical and academic projects, such as research papers. I can help you with this service. Currently, I am specializing in translation in a renowned course and hope to find opportunities here.
In addition to agricultural and biological sciences areas, I also have a deep interest in technology, artificial intelligence, nature and travel.
As in the academia, I believe honesty, responsibility and punctuality are the most important skills I also present in my translation activity.
If you feel like I can help you, please do not hesitate to contact me!
