Inheritance and combing ability in maize using a 7x7 diallel cross
Twenty one F1s produced from 7x7 diallel mating along with the 7 parents were evaluated to notice the inheritance and combining ability of different traits to obtain high heterotic crosses.

Drift in small populations predicts mate availability and the breakdown of self-incompatibility in a clonal polyploid. [PDF]
Summary Mate limitation in small populations can reduce reproductive fitness, hinder population growth, and increase extinction risk. Mate limitation is exacerbated in self‐incompatible (SI) taxa, where shared S‐alleles further restrict mating. Theory suggests genetic drift as a predictor of mate limitation and the breakdown of SI systems.

Combining ability analysis for traits related to N-fixation and agronomic traits in peanut 2 (Arachis hypogaea L.) [PDF]
Symbiotic nitrogen fixation in peanut offers an alternative way to reduce chemical nitrogen fertiliz-ation. The objectives of this study were to estimate general combining ability (GCA) and specific combiningability (SCA) effects for traits related to N -

Diallel analysis of length and shape of rice using Hayman and Griffing method
Length and shape of rice are important physical qualities that determine public acceptance of a variety and determine the price. Improvement of length and shape of rice requires information on the genetic parameters of these traits.

Phenomic Prediction Can Be Improved by Optimization of NIRS Preprocessing
ABSTRACT In recent years, phenomic prediction has emerged as a new method in plant breeding that has been shown to have great potential. However, there are still many open questions regarding its practical application. For example, in the field of spectroscopy, it is standard practice to optimize the preprocessing of spectra, which so far has only been

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 ...
