Evolution of Biological Complexity [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
In order to make a case for or against a trend in the evolution of complexity in biological evolution, complexity needs to be both rigorously defined and measurable.

Genetic control of tomato fruit quality: from QTL mapping to Genome Wide Association studies and breeding

open access: yesComptes Rendus Biologies, 2022
Consumers began to complain about the taste of tomato varieties in the late 1990’s. Although tomato taste is influenced by environmental and post-harvest conditions, varieties show a large diversity for fruit quality traits. We herein review our past and

Pitfalls and Remedies for Cross Validation with Multi-trait Genomic Prediction Methods. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Incorporating measurements on correlated traits into genomic prediction models can increase prediction accuracy and selection gain. However, multi-trait genomic prediction models are complex and prone to overfitting which may result in a loss of ...

Genomics Select [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2007
The incredible leaps in technology that now make high-speed genome sequencing possible are revolutionizing the hunt for genes and genetic variations associated with disease. A stunning series of recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified new candidate genes for a number of common diseases including breast cancer, heart disease ...

Heterosis and Hybrid Crop Breeding: A Multidisciplinary Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Although hybrid crop varieties are among the most popular agricultural innovations, the rationale for hybrid crop breeding is sometimes misunderstood. Hybrid breeding is slower and more resource-intensive than inbred breeding, but it allows systematic ...

Genomics Select [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2009
Genomic plasticity is emerging as a mechanism of phenotypic variation both within individual organisms and across species over evolutionary time. This Genomics Select examines recently reported examples of genomic plasticity at work as well as the mechanisms for how one mode of genome alteration, transposition, is regulated.

A simulation framework for reciprocal recurrent selection-based hybrid breeding under transparent and opaque simulators

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Hybrid breeding is an established and effective process to improve offspring performance, while it is resource-intensive and time-consuming for the recurrent process in reality.

Genome-Wide Association Studies and Genomic Selection in Pearl Millet: Advances and Prospects

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
Pearl millet is a climate-resilient, drought-tolerant crop capable of growing in marginal environments of arid and semi-arid regions globally. Pearl millet is a staple food for more than 90 million people living in poverty and can address the triple ...

Genomics Select [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2010
GWAS: “G-whiz!” or “GWAShed-up”? Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) link single-nucleotide variations in the human genome to a complex trait. Over the past 4 years, these ground-breaking studies have identified almost 1000 alleles increasing an individual's risk for developing common diseases, such as cancer and obesity.
