Gene action and combining ability studies for grain yield and its related traits in cowpea (Vigna unguiculata)

open access: yes, 2018
Identification of superior genotypes from variability generated via hybridization and understanding the nature of the gene action controlling grain yield and related traits are crucial for cowpea varietal improvement.

The integrated concept of disease resistance; a new view including horizontal and vertical resistance in plants [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
Horizontal, uniform, race-non-specific or stable resistance can be discerned according to Van der Plank, from vertical, differential, race-specific or unstable resistance by a test in which a number of host genotypes (cultivars or clones) are tested ...

Gene action and standard heterosis over environments in Rice (Oryza sativa L.) [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2014
The present study on genetic components of variance carried over individual and pooled environments for thirteen metric traits in rice revealed the greater magnitude of dominance component than corresponding additive component of variance, thereby ...

Gene Action and Heterotic Groups of Early White Quality Protein Maize Inbreds under Multiple Stress Environments

open access: yes, 2016
Food insecurity and malnutrition are major challenges facing rural populations in sub-Saharan Africa. A total of 150 quality protein maize (Zea mays L.) (QPM) hybrids generated from 30 earlymaturing QPM inbreds plus six checks were evaluated under ...

Identification of a transporter complex responsible for the cytosolic entry of nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Nitrogen-containing-bisphosphonates (N-BPs) are widely prescribed to treat osteoporosis and other bone-related diseases. Although previous studies established that N-BPs function by inhibiting the mevalonate pathway in osteoclasts, the mechanism by which

Genetic analysis for fruit yield and yield attributes in okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. Moench) [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2014
The components of gene effects for yield and its components in okra were studied using generation mean analysis from six generations (P1, P2, F1, F2, BC1, and BC2) derived from six different genotypes.

Long Non-Coding RNAs: New Players in Hematopoiesis and Leukemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are important regulators of gene expression that influence almost every step in the life cycle of genes, from transcription to mRNA splicing, RNA decay, and translation.
