Toward an art of genomic selection in vegetable breeding
Abstract Genomic selection (GS) is a powerful strategy for accelerating genetic gain in plant breeding. While in recent years GS has been widely adopted in breeding programs for agronomic crops, its implementation in vegetable breeding has been comparatively limited.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are often considered bioameliorators. AMF can promote plant growth under various stressful conditions; however, differences between male and female clones in mycorrhizal strategies that protect plants from the ...

ABSTRACT Arctic‐alpine species are highly sensitive to long‐term temperature changes and associated glacial cycles due to their occurrence in cold environments to which they are adapted and spatially restricted. Unravelling their evolutionary responses to past climatic fluctuations can provide new insights into their diversification.

Cosexuality Reduces Pollen Production and Fitness in Cannabis sativa L.
Cannabis sativa L. is cultivated globally for its cannabinoid-dense inflorescences. Commercial preference for sinsemilla has led to the development of methods for producing feminized seeds through cross-pollination of cosexual (masculinized) female ...

Nucleo-Cytoplasmic Male Sterility and Alternative Routes to Dioecy [PDF]
Population-genetic models of nucleo-cytoplasmic gynodioecy are shown to allow invasion of males and conversion to dioecy in a single cytotype. Pleiotropic effects of restorer alleles on fertility through male or female function can maintain a cytoplasmic polymorphism in a population that prevents evolution to dioecy regardless of the pollen fertility ...

Summary Myrothamnus flabellifolia is a dioecious resurrection plant endemic to southern Africa that has become an important model for understanding desiccation tolerance. Despite its ecological and medicinal significance, genomic and transcriptomic resources for the species are limited.

Season over plant sex: drivers of leaf damage and plant defence in a dioecious Mediterranean shrub
Considering both seasons revealed higher late‐season herbivory in males than in females of Pistacia lentiscus, while overall herbivory increased and traits varied seasonally. Abstract In dioecious plants, females often prioritize reproduction over growth, potentially investing more in defence, while males grow faster but allocate fewer resources to ...

The Salicaceae family is of growing interest in the study of dioecy in plants because the sex determination region (SDR) has been shown to be highly dynamic, with differing locations and heterogametic systems between species.

We re‐examined the taxonomic status of a plant previously identified as Sedum formosanum subsp. formosanum from four islands in the Satsunan Islands, Japan. To clarify its taxonomic identity, we conducted morphological and phenological comparisons and performed molecular phylogenetic analyses based on nuclear internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and three
