Plant Breeding, Volume 144, Issue 4, Page 549-558, August 2025.ABSTRACT Genetic diversity studies and molecular characterization offer crucial insights into preserving germplasm and maximizing its utility effectively. Therefore, the present study aimed to verify the genetic diversity, population structure and linkage disequilibrium in a set of maize (Zea mays L.) germplasm adapted to South Brazil composed of 351 ...

A diallel model with repeatability information applied in an elephant grass breeding program [PDF]
Scientia AgricolaElephant grass is an allogamous perennial forage crop with asexual propagation, allowing plant breeders to explore heterosis and develop hybrids. However, selecting parents for diallel crossing schemes is a major hurdle in the development of hybrids.

Efficiency of circulant diallels as compared to complete diallels for the estimation of combining ability. [PDF]
, 2018 The efficiency of circulant and complete diallels was compared regarding the estimation of the general (GCA) and specific (SCA) combining ability. Maize population ear yield data from a 28 x 28 diallel were used.

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2025.Abstract Despite the enormous achievements recorded in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) breeding using traditional and molecular approaches, most cultivars find humid environments highly unfavorable. As a result, fruit production cannot meet the rapidly increasing global demand.

Heterosis studies for fruit characters in Brinjal (Solanum melongena L.)
Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2016 A study was conducted in brinjal to estimate the magnitude of heterosis for eight fruit characters. Significant heterosis exhibited by different crosses for different characters over the years viz., fruit length (PRxWB-1, PB- 66xPB-67 & PB-66xWB-1 ...

The Plant Genome, Volume 18, Issue 2, June 2025.Abstract Ascochyta blight (AB) is one of the most devastating fungal diseases of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). Conventional breeding has focused on exploiting and introgressing major genes (qualitative effect) to improve AB resistance in released varieties.
