Animal breeding in organic farming:Discussion paper [PDF]
It is uncertain whether animals which have been bred for conventional production are capable of optimum performance in organic conditions. In conventional agriculture there is a movement towards maximum control of production conditions in order to ...

ABSTRACT Male‐sterile systems are pivotal for maize hybrid seed production, yet existing systems are constrained by significant limitations. Here, we identified a novel single‐gene‐controlled recessive genic male sterility (GMS) mutant, defective in filament elongation 1 (def1), which exhibits non‐elongated filaments, unopened glumes, and non‐exserted ...

MITOCHONDRIAL HETEROSIS IN MAIZE
MANY hybrids between genetic pure lines in maize exhibit heterosis. The search for the genetic basis of heterosis has been carried on for many years and by many workers. Despite these efforts, an adequate, specific biochemical explanation of heterosis has not been presented.

'Heterosis' in Drosophila [PDF]
In the course of some experiments with Drosophila melanogaster on the adaptive value of several dominant mutants in competition with their wild-type alleles, an anomalous situation arose with respect to Lobe-2. Further investigation of these results produced an explanation which raises some interesting questions about reports of heterosis in Drosophila.
