Effect of technique and darkness on the success of meristem micrografting of Picea abies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The possibility of micrografting in vitro shoot meristems of #Picea abies# were investigated on a 18 year-old Norway spruce clone. The rates of success were shown to be greatly influenced by the grafting technique used and by light, with a positive ...

Indirect selection based on multispectral aerial images in the early stages of a wheat breeding program

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract To optimize a breeding program's phenotyping process, vegetation indices (VIs) obtained from multispectral images can serve as potential tools for the indirect selection of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) families. This study evaluates the use of VI and multispectral bands for the indirect selection of superior families in the early stages of a ...

Diallel analysis of elephantgrass clones for bioenergy production in a tropical environment

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Climate change caused by fossil fuels has driven the search for bioenergy sources. Elephantgrass [Cenchrus purpureus (Schumach.) Morrone] biomass is a promising alternative for diversifying the energy matrix. One of the main steps of a genetic breeding program is the selection of parents who will form the crossing block, and the use of diallel

Defense heterosis as a novel plant protection strategy: From theory to breeding practice

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
Defense heterosis, the enhanced disease resistance of hybrids compared to their parents, has evolved from early observations of hybrid vigor to a novel research concept. Advances are now clarifying its diverse genetic and molecular mechanisms across various plant–pathogen interactions.
