Maize leaf angle genetic gain is slowing down in the last decades

Crop science, 2023
Quantifying historical changes in maize leaf angle and factors affecting it can enhance our understanding of canopy architecture and light capture, and hence crop productivity.

Editorial: Accelerating Genetic Gains in Pulses

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Legumes, members of the Fabaceae/Leguminosae family, are the third largest family of higher plants with almost 20,000 species belonging to 650 genera, and are ubiquitous all over the world. Among all legumes, pulse crops or food legumes fall into the four clades of the subfamily Papilionoideae which include aeschynomenoids/dalbergiods, genistoids ...

Fast-Forwarding Genetic Gain. [PDF]

Trends in Plant Science, 2018
'Speed breeding' enables scientists to exploit gene bank accessions and mutant collections for an unparalleled rapid gene discovery and gene deployment. Combining speed breeding and other leading-edge plant breeding technologies with strategic global partnerships, has the potential to achieve the genetic gain targets required to deliver our future ...

How genomic selection has increased rates of genetic gain and inbreeding in the Australian national herd, genomic information nucleus, and bulls.

Journal of Dairy Science, 2021
Genomic selection has been commonly used for selection for over a decade. In this time, the rate of genetic gain has more than doubled in some countries, while inbreeding per year has also increased.

Invited review: Use of assisted reproduction techniques to accelerate genetic gain and increase value of beef production in dairy herds.

Journal of Dairy Science, 2021
The contribution of the calf enterprise to the profit of the dairy farm is generally considered small, with beef bull selection on dairy farms often not considered a high priority.

Genomic selection strategies to increase genetic gain in tea breeding programs

The Plant Genome, 2022
Tea [Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze] is mainly grown in low‐ to middle‐income countries (LMIC) and is a global commodity. Breeding programs in these countries face the challenge of increasing genetic gain because the accuracy of selecting superior ...
