Genetic Improvement of Programs [PDF]

2014 16th International Symposium on Symbolic and Numeric Algorithms for Scientific Computing, 2014
Genetic programming can optimise software, including: evolving test benchmarks, generating hyper-heuristics by searching meta-heuristics, generating communication protocols, composing telephony systems and web services, generating improved hashing and C++ heap managers, redundant programming and even automatic bug fixing.

Unravelling the genetics of non-random fertilization associated with gametic incompatibility

Scientific Reports, 2022
In the dairy industry, mate allocation is dependent on the producer’s breeding goals and the parents’ breeding values. The probability of pregnancy differs among sire-dam combinations, and the compatibility of a pair may vary due to the combination of ...

Genetic improvement of GPU software [PDF]

Genetic Programming and Evolvable Machines, 2016
We survey genetic improvement (GI) of general purpose computing on graphics cards. We summarise several experiments which demonstrate four themes. Experiments with the gzip program show that genetic programming can automatically port sequential C code to parallel code.

Physiological changes and transcriptome profiling in Saccharum spontaneum L. leaf under water stress and re-watering conditions

Scientific Reports, 2021
As the polyploidy progenitor of modern sugarcane, Saccharum spontaneum is considered to be a valuable resistance source to various biotic and abiotic stresses. However, little has been reported on the mechanism of drought tolerance in S.

Helitron distribution in Brassicaceae and whole Genome Helitron density as a character for distinguishing plant species

BMC Bioinformatics, 2019
Background Helitron is a rolling-circle DNA transposon; it plays an important role in plant evolution. However, Helitron distribution and contribution to evolution at the family level have not been previously investigated.

Intraspecific variation of residual heterozygosity and its utility for quantitative genetic studies in maize

BMC Plant Biology, 2018
Background Residual heterozygosity (RH) in advanced inbred lines of plants benefits quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping studies. However, knowledge of factors affecting the genome-wide distribution of RH remains limited.

Regulation of an endophytic nitrogen-fixing bacteria GXS16 promoting drought tolerance in sugarcane

BMC Plant Biology, 2023
Background Drought limits crop growth and is an important issue in commercial sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum) production. Drought tolerance in sugarcane induced by endophytic nitrogen-fixing bacteria is a complex biological process that ranges from ...
