Molecular Characterisation of a Supergene Conditioning Super-High Vitamin C in Kiwifruit Hybrids
During analysis of kiwifruit derived from hybrids between the high vitamin C (ascorbic acid; AsA) species Actinidia eriantha and A. chinensis, we observed bimodal segregation of fruit AsA concentration suggesting major gene segregation.

Phenotypic variability in Italian rice germplasm [PDF]
Plant breeding is one of the key strategies for further enhancement of crop yields; however, effective breeding strategies require phenotypic characterisation of the available germplasm. This study sought to characterise the phenotypic expression of fourteen crop traits related to phenology, plant architecture, and yield in a panel of 40 cultivars ...

Grape Cold Hardiness Prediction via Multi-Task Learning [PDF]
Cold temperatures during fall and spring have the potential to cause frost damage to grapevines and other fruit plants, which can significantly decrease harvest yields. To help prevent these losses, farmers deploy expensive frost mitigation measures such as sprinklers, heaters, and wind machines when they judge that damage may occur.
