Genetic Variability and Heterosis in F1 and F2 Generations of Diallel Crosses among Seven Wheat Genotypes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Plant Production, 2018
In order to study the effect of heterosis and nature of genetic on plant height and yield traits were studied in a 7x7 diallel cross without reciprocals and their F2 generation in wheat to define and select an efficient and prospective material for ...

Heterosis, character association and path analysis for grain protein content in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2023
Rice grain protein content has many unique activities like hypo-allergenic, anticancer properties etc. which helps in reducing protein energy malnutrition.

Zebrafish as an Anti‐Isogenic Vertebrate Model and What It Reveals About Genetic Background and Reproducibility

open access: yesBioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 6, June 2026.
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 ...

Combining ability and heterosis for grain yield, fodder yield and other agronomic traits in Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2014
Thirty six hybrids derived from a diallel mating design of nine parents and one standard check GJ-39 were evaluated for general and specific combining ability effects and standard heterosis for grain yield/plant, dry fodder yield/plant, days to 50 per ...

Constitutive and inducible oleoresin defenses share genetic architectures and mechanisms in Pinus taeda

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2966-2987, June 2026.
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 ...

A new partial diallel model adapted to analyze reciprocal effects in grain yield of maize

open access: yesCrop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2019
Comparison between two distinct groups using a partial diallel and considering reciprocal effects has not been described in the scientific literature, limiting diallel analysis results.

Resistance of common bean lines to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum isolates under different environmental conditions

open access: yesPesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2022
The objective of this work was to evaluate the reaction of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) lines to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, the aggressiveness of the isolates, and the inheritance of resistance to white mold, under two environmental conditions.

Convergence and parallelism in the evolution of plant metabolism

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 1013-1031, April 2026.
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 ...

Diallel analysis of the duration of vegetation period in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) with increased lycopene content in the fruit

open access: yesActa Agriculturae Slovenica, 2021
Five parental forms of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) and twenty hybrids F1, were studied which were obtained by the complete diallel scheme (5 x 5). For genetic analysis (by Hayman, 1954; Jinks,1954) was used line №477 (sp,u), variety Alya (sp) with ...
