Drone‐based phenotyping of maize for multiple disease resistance and yield in breeding field trials
The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Improving selection for multiple disease resistance (MDR) and yield in maize (Zea mays L.) requires high‐throughput, objective phenotyping tools, particularly under field conditions where several foliar diseases co‐occur. We evaluated drone‐based multispectral vegetation indices (VIs) for predicting resistance to northern leaf blight (NLB ...

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT The development of rice–rice farming systems in South Asia necessitates extra‐early maturing legumes that can fit into short planting windows without affecting yield productivity. This 2‐year study evaluates 43 extra‐early field pea (Pisum sativum L.) genotypes during two consecutive years at the Pulses Research Centre (PRC), Bangladesh ...

Identification of QTLs for Starch Content in Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.)
Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2014 Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.) breeding is challenging due to its genetic complexity. In the present study, interval mapping (IM) and multiple quantitative trait locus (QTL) model (MQM) analysis were used to identify QTLs for starch content with

Techniques of producing monosex or sterile population of fish for aquaculture -- a review of selected literature [PDF]
, 1993 The need to develop techniques that can make the male grow faster in many species of fish as well as the female in some other species cannot be over-emphasized.

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) breeding has primarily emphasized fiber yield and quality, yet plant architectural, developmental, and seed morphological traits also play key roles in productivity and management. Here, we dissect the genetic basis of four such traits: plant height (HT), number of nodes with one branch (N1B), days to flowering ...

Epigenetic regulation of adaptive responses of forest tree species to the environment [PDF]
, 2013 Epigenetic variation is likely to contribute to the phenotypic plasticity and adaptative capacity of plant species, and may be especially important for long-lived organisms with complex life cycles, including forest trees.

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.Abstract Burbot (Lota lota) are a promising candidate for commercial aquaculture production. Methods for captive culture are well understood, the species is highly regarded for its muscle, roe, liver, and skin, and its resistance to many salmonid pathogens coupled with the species' affinity to trout‐like water quality conditions make burbot an ...

Estimation of heterosis in pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.)] for yield and quality traits
Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2016 Five CMS lines were crossed with nine testers in a line x tester design to study the extent of heterosis in pearl millet for yield and quality traits. Heterosis was observed in both directions for most of the characters.
