Combining abilities and heterotic groups in Pisum sativum L. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The objective of this research was to investigate the use of heterosis and estimates of the general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) for yield and the yield-related traits for identifying suitable parents and forming heterotic

THE THEORY AND ANALYSIS OF DIALLEL CROSSES [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 1954
HE investigation of the properties of groups of homozygous lines by means T of diallel crosses as proposed by HULL (1945) has subsequently been discussed in growing detail in a series of papers by JINKS and HAYMAN (1953 and later). With certain assumptions, the genetic variation present can be described in terms of the biometrical concepts of MATHER ...

Simulations of genomic selection implementation pathways in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) using parametric and nonparametric models

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 18, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract We conducted simulations of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) breeding programs to better understand the interplay between different choices a breeder must make when launching a genomic selection (GS) pipeline. We complement preceding studies on optimizing model parameters and training set makeup by exploring the practical implementation of ...

Strain comparisons in aquaculture species: a manual [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
When different strains or breeds of a particular species are available, the best choice is seldom immediately obvious for producers. Scientists are also interested in the relative performance of different strains because it provides a basis for ...

Exploring the efficacy of phenomic and genomic selection for yield and fruit quality traits in strawberry

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 18, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract Phenomic selection is a breeding approach that incorporates phenomic data into statistical models to predict new genotypes. There is still much to learn about the efficacy of phenomic selection compared to genomic selection and best practices for its application in different crops. We utilized multispectral imaging of 1122 strawberry (Fragaria

Heterosis and Combining Ability in Complete Diallel Cross of Seven Chili Pepper Genotypes Grown in Ultisol

open access: yesAGRIVITA Journal of Agricultural Science, 2018
Ultisol is very promising area for Indonesian chili pepper production. This experiment aimed to determine General Combining Ability (GCA), Specific Combining Ability (SCA), heterosis and heterobeltiosis estimates of seven parental lines; A(KG1), B(KG2 ...

Semen characteristics of purebred and crossbred male rabbits. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the semen quality traits of purebred male rabbits and their crosses under subtropical Egyptian conditions. A full 3 x 3 diallel crossing was performed for producing the first generation progeny of New Zealand

Quantitative genetics of learning ability and resistance to stress in Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Even though laboratory evolution experiments have demonstrated genetic variation for learning ability, we know little about the underlying genetic architecture and genetic relationships with other ecologically relevant traits.

The Roles of Plasticity and Selection in Rapid Phenotypic Changes at the Pacific Oyster Invasion Front in Europe

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 23, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Invasive species present significant management challenges worldwide due to their ability to rapidly adapt to novel environments. The Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas, a globally distributed invasive species, arrived in western Sweden in 2006 but has not yet colonised the low salinity waters of the Baltic Sea, presumably because low salinities

The inheritance of ear traits in hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) [PDF]

open access: yesSelekcija i Semenarstvo, 2013
The mode of inheritance of the ear traits considered as the yield components, namely kernel number and weight per ear were examined using diallel crossing method.
