Combination of In Ovo Nutritional Components Improves Embryonic Development, Growth Performance, and Gut Health in Broiler Chickens

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the effects of intra‐amniotic administration of combined energy, amino acid, and vitamin sources on embryonic development, post‐hatch growth performance, and intestinal health in broiler chickens. On Day 18 of incubation, 460 fertile Ross 308 eggs were allocated to four groups: non‐injected negative control (NC), saline ...

Field generation of triparental sugar beet plants through polyspermy‐induced three‐parent breeding

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Polyspermy, the fertilization of an egg by two sperm cells, can generate viable triparental offspring in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. To explore the potential for three‐parent breeding in a crop species, male‐sterile sugar beet plants were grown alongside genetically distinct pollen donors carrying dominant, traceable selection markers ...

Improving maize hybrid seed production through optimized male sterility systems

Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) and nuclear male sterility genes (ms-genes) are key components in the production of hybrid maize seed. The aim of this study is to analyze different male sterility systems and their potential application for producing ...

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

A Century of Understanding and Harnessing Heterosis

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heterosis has shaped modern plant breeding since Darwin's 19th century observations that outcrossing restores vigour lost through selfing. While 100 years old, its mechanistic basis and deployability remain actively debated. Classical models of dominance, overdominance and epistasis provided the foundation for hybrid breeding and converted ...

Lodging Tolerance of Winter Rye (Secale cereale L.) in Genetic Resources Compared With Commercial Entries and Test of a Provocation Trial

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Winter rye is the tallest small‐grain cereal and consequently more prone to lodging. Plant growth regulators are routinely used in commercial production to reduce the risk of lodging. To select genotypes with better tolerance to stem lodging despite its incidental character, we tested the use of a provocation trial with higher nitrogen level ...
