Maintenance breeding deals with producing and maintaining breeder seed and genetic purity of crop varieties. It involves selecting high quality plants, growing them in isolated fields, and removing off-type plants to prevent genetic deterioration over time. The document outlines procedures for maintaining nucleus seed stocks of new and established varieties, including harvesting individual plants, growing progeny in isolated double rows, and discarding any off-type plants before harvest. It also describes maintaining parental lines of hybrid crops through hand pollination and growing inbred lines in isolated fields with rogueing.

2. A branch of plant breeding which deals with
principles and method of breeder seed production
and maintenance is called Maintenance breeding.
It is a breeding procedure followed to maintain the
genetic purity of the variety or parents of hybrid.
It deals with principles and methods of breeder
seed or nucleus seed production.
It deal with ways and means of maintaining genetic
and physical purity of released and notified variety.
It is also known as vareital maintenance
technology.
3. It undertake breeder seed production of parental
line of released variety.
Genetic purity, physical purity and germination are
main point taken into account.
Seed health also taken.
Breeder and foundation seed is use as base material
for starting Maintenance breeding programme.
It prevents varietal deterioration(Mutation, cross
pollination).
4. MAINTENANCE OF NUCLEUS AND
BREEDER SEED
Nucleus Seed:
It is the handful of original seed obtained from selected
individual plants of a particular variety for maintenance
and purification by the originating breeder.
It is further multiplied and maintained under the
supervision of qualified pant breeder to provide breeder
seed.
It has the highest genetic purity and physical purity.
Maintenance of nucleus can be divided into 2 groups: -
1. Maintenance of newly released varieties
2. Maintenance of established varieties
5. Maintenance of nucleus seed of pre-released
or newly released varieties
Harrington 1952 has outlined the procedure for multiplication of
nucleus seed which is given below;
1. Sampling of a variety to obtain nucleus seed:
In any crop not more than 15 new varieties should be sampled in
any research station.
Select approximately 200 plants from one of the yield trials.
Discard poor diseased and inferior plants.
The selected plants should be harvested 4 to 5 days before harvest
to avoid shattering.
All the 200 plants should be tied individually and wrapped in a
cloth bag and stored till the yield results are obtained.
The bundles of high yielding varieties are taken for further
examination and the inferior varieties are discarded.
6. 2. Table examination of samples:
The bundles are threshed separately and the seed should be
examined in piles on the purity work board.
Piles with undesirable characters (diseased, offtypes etc.)
should be discarded.
The remaining pure seed of individual plants is sown in a
variety purification nursery called as nucleus seed.
3. Location and seeding of nucleus seed:
Select clean fertile land in the experimental station in which
the same crop was not grown in previous one season.
The land should be free from volunteer plants and it should
be properly isolated.
The 200 or less progenies should be sown in 200 double rows
in 4 series of 50 double rows in each plot.
Sufficient spacing should be there between and within the
rows to facilitate examination of each row during the crop
growth.
7. 4. Inspection of nucleus double row plots and removal
of off types:
The double row plots should be critically examined from
the seedling stage until maturity.
If any plot differ distinctly from that of the nucleus seed
variety it should be removed before flowering stage.
After flowering and during maturity plots should be
examined critically for other characters like flower
colour, ear head shape, seed colour etc. and the offtypes
should be removed before harvest.
When a plant is removed after flowering all the plants or
plots within 3 meters should be removed as they may
contaminate the surrounding plants.
8. 5. Harvesting and threshing:
The remaining plots (between 180-200) should be
harvested individually and tied into a bundle.
The individual plots are threshed cleaned and dried
separately.
The seed of each plot should be placed on the purity
work board in piles and examined for uniformity of seed
characters. If any pile appears to be of off type or
diseased it should be discarded.
All the remaining plot seed should be mixed together
into one lot treated with fungicide and insecticide
bagged, labelled and stored as breeder stock seed for
next year.
9. Maintenance of Breeder seed of pre-released
or newly released varieties
1. Selection of field: - Breeder stock seed should be
sown on clean fertile land on which the same crop was
not grown in previous one season.
2. The field should be properly isolated to avoid natural
crossing and spread of diseases.
3. Agronomic practices: - Adopt latest farm practices to
raise a good crop (in sowing, raising and harvesting etc).
4. Breeder seed should be produced at the experimental
station in the area where the variety is to be released.
10. 5. Sufficient spacing should be provided between and
within the rows to examine individual plants and for
removal of offtypes.
6. Rogueing: - Rogueing should be done before
flowering and when plants are removed after flowering
all the surrounding plants within one meter should be
removed.
7. Harvesting: - Harvesting the Breeder seed should be
done with utmost care. The equipment used for
harvesting, threshing and cleaning should be clean to
avoid mechanical mixtures. The seed should be stored in
new gunny bags. The seed produced should be of 99.99
% pure and it is used for producing Foundation seed.
11. Maintenance of breeder seed of
established varieties
1. By raising the crop in isolation:
o Breeder seed can be maintained by growing them in isolated
pots and by following vigorous rogueing during various stages
of crop growth.
o The methods of handling the Breeder seed are same as that
described earlier in newly released varieties.
2. By Bulk selection:
o Genetic purity of established varieties could be satisfactorily
improved by bulk selection.
o In this method select 2000 to 2500 plants which are typical to
that of the variety. Harvest and thresh them separately.
o The seed of each plant are examined and any plot which
shows offtypes or dissimilar ones are discarded.
o The seed of individual plant may be grown in double rows or
may be bulked to form the breeder stock seed
12. Maintenance of Nucleus and Breeder seed
in cross pollinated crops
The maintenance of varieties of cross pollinated
crops is much more complicated than self-pollinated
crops.
It involves: -
Maintenance of nucleus seed of inbred lines
Maintenance of breeder seed of inbred lines
13. Maintenance of nucleus seed of inbred lines
After a hybrid has been thoroughly tested and if it is
suitable the seed of parental lines must be increased in the
following manner: -
1. Hand pollination:
Method of maintaining nucleus seed of inbred lines
involves self-pollination, sib pollination or combination of
both.
The individual selfed or sibbed ears should be examined
critically. Those which are offtypes or inferior in any regard
of differing in any character such as texture, seed size,
color, shape etc. should be discarded.
The individual selfed or sibbed ears may then be threshed
separately and sown in ear to row method in double row
plots.
14. 2. Seeding of hand pollinated seed:
The hand pollinated seed should be sown in fertile land
which is free from volunteer plants.
The same crop should not be grown in previous one
season.
The seed should be sown in the area where the hybrid is
to be released.
3. Isolation:
Proper isolation distance should be provided to avoid
natural cross pollination and spread of diseases.
Distance or time isolation can be practiced to avoid
contamination.
15. 4. Inspection of double row plots and roughing: -
The double row plots must be carefully checked for offtypes prior to pollen
to shedding.
It is very easy to recognize the offtypes, because they are more vigorous
than the inbred lines.
5. Harvesting drying and shelling:
The nucleus seed crop can be harvested soon after it attains
physiological maturity if artificial drying facilities exist.
Piles should be critically examined for ear characters and all off colored,
off textured and diseased or undesirable ears sorted out.
If the overall percentage of offtypes is more than 0.1%, hand pollination
should be done again.
After discarding the undesirable ones, remaining ears may be bulked
and dried in clean dry bin at a temperature not exceeding 43oC.
After drying shelling should be done in a cleaned machine to avoid
mechanical mixtures at this stage.
After shelling the seed may be cleaned treated with fungicide,
insecticide, properly labelled and stored under ideal storage condition.
16. Maintenance of breeder seed of inbred lines
For increasing Breeder seed the breeder stock seed
obtained from nucleus seed is planted in an isolated
field.
During increase of Breeder seed adequate attention
must be paid to: -
1. Land requirement
2. Isolation
3. Roughing
4. Field inspection
5. Harvesting and drying
6. Sorting of the ears.
17. Advantages of Maintenance Breeding
It prevents cultivars from genetic deterioration and so
it prolongs life of variety.
It helps in purification of improved cultivars and
parental line of hybrids.
It is useful in studying the efficiency of various
maintenance procedures.
It helps in quality seed production which in turn leads
to higher crop yield.
18. Limitations of Maintenance Breeding
Some maintenance procedures require lot of experimental
material for evolution.
Large numbers of single plant have to be evaluated in term
of agronomic performance hence only limited number of
cultivars can be handled at a time.
Progeny row method requires more time (2-3 seasons) for
evolution of purity of a variety.
Most of testing procedures are based on phenotypic
performance only.
Maintenance procedures are used for varietal purification.
Hence, chance of evolve new variety through Maintenance
Breeding are rare.
