Keeping Track of the Genealogy of Heterozygotes Using Epigenetic Reference Codes and Breeding Tables
Studying neurobehavioral consequences of the hypofunctional dopamine transporter (DAT) across several generations entails the need to monitor allelic transmission to offspring, taking into account both maternal and paternal inheritance.

Advances in wheat breeding for resistance to Fusarium head blight
Fusarium head blight (FHB), mainly caused by Fusarium graminearum, is one of the most devastating diseases of wheat globally. FHB causes an extensive reduction in yield and reduces the grain quality through its contamination with Fusarium toxins such as ...

Allometry and Yield Stability of Cereals
Crop plants grow, and then, they allocate resources to different structures, including seeds and fruits, which represent yield in most crops. We define the yield stability of a genotype as its ability to reduce the effects of temporal variation in ...

Mapping Recombination Landscape and Basidial Spore Number in the Button Mushroom Agaricus bisporus
The button mushroom Agaricus bisporus is represented mainly by two varieties, a secondarily homothallic variety with predominantly two heterokaryotic spores per basidia and a heterothallic variety with predominantly four homokaryotic spored basidium ...

SuperSour: A New Strategy for Breeding Superior Citrus Rootstocks
Citrus crops have a long history of cultivation as grafted trees on selected rootstock cultivars, but all current rootstocks have significant limitations and traditional methods of rootstock breeding take at least 2–3 decades to develop and field test ...
