ABSTRACT Horses are major domestic animals and cultural symbols that have accompanied humans for millennia. They underpin transport, agriculture, warfare and sport, and also provide a model for studying domestication, complex traits and adaptive evolution.

Widespread Variation in Retinochrome Spectral Absorbance Across Scallop Phylogeny
ABSTRACT Vision is a two‐step process, including phototransduction initiated by a retinal‐bound opsin photopigment, and subsequent photopigment regeneration wherein the inactive state is restored. Because retinal isomerization, or changing of the molecular structural conformation, drives the activation of opsin photopigments, the reverse process is a ...

A Cu2+‐regulated bZIP–HD‐ZIP transcriptional cascade activates ABA‐dependent immunity in apple. ABSTRACT Transcription factor‐mediated integration of hormonal signalling is central to plant immunity, yet how such regulatory modules are activated by external signals in perennial fruit crops remains largely unknown.

Summary The oleoresin defense system of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) protects trees from insects and pathogens and is an important source of renewable biofuels and chemicals, but the genetic basis of oleoresin production is poorly understood. We characterized the genetic architecture of oleoresin flow, resin canal number, stem wood terpene content, and ...

ABSTRACT Plant‐derived secondary metabolites act as regulators of in planta defence. Plant phenylpropanoid metabolic compounds, including final metabolites such as lignin and flavonoids, and a few intermediate metabolites play critical roles in defence.

ABSTRACT Genomic selection (GS) is critical for accelerating genetic gain in modern plant breeding. Deep learning approaches offer powerful non‐linear representation capabilities for modelling non‐additive effects. However, their application in GS remains restricted, as high‐dimensional, low‐sample and noisy data hinder the identification of ...

Complex Adaptive Systems Approach for Investigating Genetic Epistasis
This project focuses on developing a novel approach for finding patterns in complex data. Specifically, the computational approach used is a complex adaptive system (CAS), which models complex phenomena as the emergent result of simple interacting ...

Sex-specific genetic variance for fitness characterized by sex-specific dominance and epistasis
The ubiquity of sexually antagonistic (SA) genetic variation for fitness suggests that antagonistic pleiotropy is one of the most likely and widespread mechanisms of balancing selection acting to maintain genetic variance for fitness.

Epistasis, an additive-by-additive interaction between quantitative trait loci, has been defined as a deviation from the sum of independent effects of individual genes.
