Participatory Maize Breeding
in Portugal
Pedro Mendes Moreira, PhD
International meeting 2015

25th September
Breeding art, mistery…
Plant domestication
• From wild to agriculture value
• “Domestication síndrome”
The fasciation trait was found in 56% of the maize traditional landraces
collected in the Portuguese central region (Vaz Patto et al. 2007).
Fasciation describes the enlargement of the plant apex by unregulated
proliferative growth (Rédei 2008; Busch, Benfey 2010)
Quantitative trait that is responsible for increasing the number of rows,
ear diameters and number of kernels, which can be related with yield

• The impact of maize
expansion in the
Portuguese Northwest and
Algarve lead to different
types of maize adapted to
a diversified number of
microclimates, according
to the sequence of valleys
and mountains.
Expansion and Adaptation
(Sec. XVII-XVIII)
Agricultores
The germplasm curators need to pass the
testimony!
68% of Portuguese farmers have more than
55 years…

VASO Project
Sousa Valley
 VASO Project
“How to solve the problem of the
small Portuguese farmers where
the land is scarce and the high
demographic density exists”
i.e.
where the American model do not fit
and where the multinationals do
not have market to operate?
Need to study, conceptualize and implement
VASO started in
1984
The ABC of phenotypic recurrent selection
Two parental control mass
selection:
in the field
- before pollen shedding
- before harvesting
- at the storing facilities

  • 4. The fasciation trait was found in 56% of the maize traditional landraces collected in the Portuguese central region (Vaz Patto et al. 2007). Fasciation describes the enlargement of the plant apex by unregulated proliferative growth (Rédei 2008; Busch, Benfey 2010) Quantitative trait that is responsible for increasing the number of rows, ear diameters and number of kernels, which can be related with yield
