Small Area Shrinkage Estimation
The need for small area estimates is increasingly felt in both the public and private sectors in order to formulate their strategic plans. It is now widely recognized that direct small area survey estimates are highly unreliable owing to large standard ...

Phenotypic scoring of canola blackleg severity using machine learning image analysis
Abstract Canola blackleg is a fungal disease that causes significant yield loss and plant death of infected canola (Brassica napus L., Brassica rapa L., Brassica juncea L.) fields worldwide. One of the most effective methods for controlling blackleg is through the cultivation of resistant varieties.

Genome-Wide association study for resistance to aerial propagation of leaf scald in sugarcane(Saccharum spp) [PDF]
Leaf scald (LS) is a major sugarcane disease, resulting in cane loss and sugar yield decrease when growing susceptible cultivars. This disease is caused by a xylem invading bacterium, Xanthomonas albilineans (Xa), and is mainly transmitted by aerial ...

Bayes factor for linear mixed model in genetic association studies
Abstract Bayes factor has advantages over p‐value as test statistics for association, particularly when comparing multiple non‐nested alternative models. An efficient method to compute Bayes factor for linear mixed model (LMM) in the context of genetic association studies is lacking.

Stabilized determination of geopotential coefficients by the mixed hom-BLUP approach [PDF]
For the determination of geopotential coefficients, data can be used from rather different sources, e.g., satellite tracking, gravimetry, or altimetry.

Evaluation of the yield stability of lentil genotypes by combining AMMI and BLUP techniques
Abstract This study evaluated the yield stability of 14 advanced lentil genotypes alongside two control cultivars (Kimia and Gachsaran) across three growing seasons (2013–2016) and three locations in Iran (Gachsaran, Ilam, and Khoramabad). A randomized complete block design with three replications was employed at each site.

Objetivou-se classificar e selecionar clones de batata-doce, utilizando-se a metodologia REML/BLUP. O experimento foi conduzido no município de Rio Largo, Estado de Alagoas, situado a 127 m de altitude, com latitude 9º27’S e longitude 35º27’W. Foram avaliados cinco clones (CL-2, CL-3, CL-4, CL-6 e CL-8) em delineamento experimental de blocos completos ...

GWAS reveals novel QTLs associated with panicle architecture traits in US long‐grain rice
Abstract Understanding the variability of panicle architecture‐related traits is important to enhance rice (Oryza sativa L.) improvement. The present study evaluated 208 diverse rice lines of southern rice breeding programs for panicle length (PL), panicle weight (PW), and thousand grain weight (GW).
