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.

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 ...

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.

Genetic profile of total body energy content of Holstein cows in the first three lactations [PDF]

, 2005
Weekly total body energy content (TBEC) was calculated for 444 Holstein cows in their first 3 lactations. These calculations were based on body lipid and protein changes predicted from weekly changes in body condition score and live weight of each cow ...
