The genetic architecture of leaf vein density and its importance for photosynthesis in maize
Vein types in maize leaves. Summary Leaf venation density has significantly increased during plant evolution. Higher densities are observed in angiosperms compared with early land plants, and among angiosperms, recently diverged C4 species have the highest values.

Diallel Analysis of Early Leaf Spot (Cercospora arachidicola Hori) Disease Resistance in Groundnut
Early leaf spot (ELS) is one of the major biotic constraints of groundnut production in West and Central Africa. A study using 6 × 6 F2 full diallel populations from six parents (NAMA, B188, PC79-79, QH243C, TS32-1, and CN94C) was conducted to ...

The objective of this study was to evaluate four maize testers for identification of superior inbreed lines in testcross. The four testers evaluated are cultivars with narrow or wide genetic base (single-cross hybrids and open pollinated varieties) and ...

Zebrafish illustrates how polygenic sex determination, maternal germline bottlenecks, and a structurally restless genome jointly destabilize deep homozygosity. These interlocking constraints make fully isogenic zebrafish lines effectively unattainable, turning this model into a natural “stress test” for assumptions about genetic background and ...

Summary The oleoresin defense system of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) protects trees from insects and pathogens and is an important source of renewable biofuels and chemicals, but the genetic basis of oleoresin production is poorly understood. We characterized the genetic architecture of oleoresin flow, resin canal number, stem wood terpene content, and ...

Phosphorus (P) deficiency drastically limits rice production in tropical soils, necessitating the development of P-efficient varieties. The present study evaluated the combining ability of eight rice parents and their 28 F1 hybrids, which were produced ...

Human Diallelic Insertion/Deletion Polymorphisms [PDF]
We report the identification and characterization of 2,000 human diallelic insertion/deletion polymorphisms (indels) distributed throughout the human genome. Candidate indels were identified by comparison of overlapping genomic or cDNA sequences.

Convergence and parallelism in the evolution of plant metabolism
Similar traits in different organisms may originate from shared ancestry or evolve independently. The terminology used to define phenotypic similarity is often confusing. This review attempts to clarify the definitions and present examples from plant domestication and specialized metabolism to explain how complex traits evolve repeatedly in plants ...
