Agronomic performance of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) accessions in Tigray, Northern Ethiopia

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is used in numerous traditional foods: injera, dabo, kolo, tihlo, besso, and in making local drinks. Nevertheless, there are not many comprehensive reports on the availability of best performing accessions of this primary grain crop.

Production and heterosis analysis of rice autotetraploid hybrids

open access: yes, 2007
Poor fertility is the main barrier for utilizing heterosis between the two rice (Oryza sativa L.) subspecies, indica and japonica. Recently, the development of autotetraploid hybrids (2n = 4x = 48) has been suggested as a new method for increasing ...

Hybridisation as an Ecological Process: Admixed Individuals Contribute Substantially to Canopy Biomass in an Intertidal Macroalgal Hybrid Zone

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
On sheltered shores of the Swedish west coast, the canopy‐forming seaweeds Fucus spiralis and F. vesiculosus meet across an intertidal gradient only tens of centimetres wide. Genome‐wide data resolve two parental ancestry groups separated by a sharply bounded zone of admixed individuals whose position on the shore tracks depth.

Identification of QTLs for Starch Content in Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.)

open access: yesJournal 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

Hierarchical additive effects on heterosis in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Exploitation of heterosis in crops has contributed greatly to improvement in global food and energy production. In spite of the pervasive importance of heterosis, a complete understanding of its mechanisms has remained elusive.

The Rise of Plant Pan‐Genomes: From Genome Variation to Predictive Breeding

open access: yesAdvanced Genetics, Volume 7, Issue 3, September 2026.
Plant pan‐genomics is shifting from genome variation discovery to understanding how diversity drives biological function and breeding value. Future advances will integrate SV/PAV, haplotype diversity, super pan‐genomes, pan‐omics, 3D genomics, and AI to transform genomic resources into predictive breeding strategies.

Tagging large CNV blocks in wheat boosts digitalization of germplasm resources by ultra-low-coverage sequencing

open access: yesGenome Biology
Background The massive structural variations and frequent introgression highly contribute to the genetic diversity of wheat, while the huge and complex genome of polyploid wheat hinders efficient genotyping of abundant varieties towards accurate ...

Hybridity has a greater effect than paternal genome dosage on heterosis in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris)

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2018
Background The phenomenon of heterosis is critical to plant breeding and agricultural productivity. Heterosis occurs when F1 hybrid offspring display quantitative improvements in traits to levels that do not occur in the parents.

Heterosis in Bread Wheat

open access: yesTurkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry, 1996
Values of heterosis and combining ability for seven traits were estimated in a 6 × 6 diallel population by using Method 4 of Griffing type analysis. High heterosis was found for the harvest index and yield in the cross Orsa × Ak 702. which had the best specific combining ability. In crosses involving Orso and Ak 702, Orso reduced the plant height while
