Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sucrose transport and starch accumulation are crucial carbohydrate metabolic processes in rice, playing essential roles during late pollen development to ensure pollen maturation, fertility and high grain production. However, the molecular mechanisms regulating sucrose transport and starch accumulation during rice pollen development remain ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Understanding how numerous heterotic quantitative trait loci (hQTL) shape heterosis and shifting from hQTL to candidate genes are central challenges. To address these challenges, we performed a systematic, genome‐wide mapping in a biparental population and a population of diverse hybrids.

Weakest link epistasis and the geometry of genetic load
Abstract Because natural selection must optimise multiple traits at once, previous work has suggested that phenotypic dimensionality can substantially worsen the equilibrium fitness defect of a population relative to the phenotypic optimum.

A Century of Understanding and Harnessing Heterosis
Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Heterosis has shaped modern plant breeding since Darwin's 19th century observations that outcrossing restores vigour lost through selfing. While 100 years old, its mechanistic basis and deployability remain actively debated. Classical models of dominance, overdominance and epistasis provided the foundation for hybrid breeding and converted ...

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is a vital cereal crop in dry regions worldwide. However, in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA), grain yields from currently grown varieties remain low (< 1 ton/ha) and exhibit variable nutrient composition. Therefore, the objective of this study was to undertake a genetic analysis of selected East African‐adapted ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plants are dynamic chemical factories that produce diverse specialised metabolites essential for growth, defence, and environmental adaptation. Metabolomes, shaped by genetic architecture, enable plants to respond to abiotic and biotic pressures, including temperature fluctuations.

Artificial intelligence‐powered plant phenomics: Progress, challenges, and opportunities
The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI), a key driver of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, is being rapidly integrated into plant phenomics to automate sensing, accelerate data analysis, and support decision‐making in phenomic prediction and genomic selection.

Combining phenomic and genomic selection for pea breeding improvement
The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Pea (Pisum sativum L.) is a strategic crop in the development of sustainable agriculture. However, the genetic gain remains limited despite advances in breeding. Genomic selection holds promise to accelerate varietal improvement, but its high implementation cost restricts its use in crops.
