ABSTRACT BS39 is a broad‐based population of tropical maize adapted to temperate environments that can provide useful and unique alleles to US Corn Belt breeding programmes. Doubled‐haploid (DH) has been used as an efficient alternative method to speed up the development of maize lines. Our objectives were to compare genetic parameters for plant height

Bootstrap for estimating the mean squared error of the spatial EBLUP [PDF]
This work assumes that the small area quantities of interest follow a Fay-Herriot model with spatially correlated random area effects. Under this model, parametric and nonparametric bootstrap procedures are proposed for estimating the mean squared ...

Abstract Global climate change has driven breeding programs to develop abiotic stress‐resilient plant varieties. Traditionally, assessing drought resilience involves labor‐intensive and time‐consuming processes. This study used an unmanned aerial system (UAS) to predict key phenotyping traits in maize (Zea mays L.) and monitor plant response to drought

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 ...

Abstract The application of small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS)‐based high‐throughput phenotyping in plant breeding has advanced significantly over the past decade. Hyperspectral images and machine learning approaches offer potential to enhance drought resistance screening in turfgrass. However, large‐scale field applications remain limited, and the

Calibrated Weighting for Small Area Estimation
Calibrated weighting methods for estimation of survey population characteristics are widely used. At the same time, model-based prediction methods for estimation of small area or domain characteristics are becoming increasingly popular.

Improving estimation of days to maturity in field pea using RGB aerial imagery and machine learning
Abstract Accurately estimating days to maturity (DTM) is essential for assessing local adaptation and yield potential in field pea (Pisum sativum L.) breeding programs. However, traditional manual scoring of DTM is labor‐intensive and inefficient for large‐scale, multi‐environment trials.

Palm oil yield potential of oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) seeds developed in a network by Cirad and its partners [PDF]
Over the last decade, there was very strong growth in the demand for vegetable oils and fats (+ 4.6% per year) and the oils extracted from oil palm fruits greatly contributed to satisfying those needs. Food demand continues to increase, as do traditional

Local adaptation of both plant and pathogen: an arms‐race compromise in switchgrass rust
Summary In coevolving species, parasites locally adapt to host populations as hosts locally adapt to resist parasites. Parasites often outpace host local adaptation since they have rapid life cycles, but host diversity, the strength of selection, and external environmental influence can result in complex outcomes.
