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

Combining ability and heterosis in partial resistance to gray leaf spot in elite maize (Zea mays L.) genotypes

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Six sets of 48 maize (Zea mays L.) inbred lines, and their 96 single crosses generated using the North Carolina Mating Design II system, were evaluated for resistance to gray leaf spot (GLS). The aim of the study was to assess the implications of combining ability, heterotic effects, and potence ratio in breeding for GLS resistance in maize ...

Integrating Genomic and Climate Data to Design Representative Seed Production Areas: A Pragmatic Workflow for Climate‐Adjusted Provenancing

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
In this study, we present a flexible, data‐driven workflow that integrates genomic data, future climate projections and real‐world constraints to guide the design of genetically representative seed production areas (SPAs). We show how common allele representation within a target genetic neighbourhood can be applied across various sampling strategies ...

Phylogenetic History and Adaptation Mechanisms of Casuarina equisetifolia Landraces in China

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Genetic analysis revealed that Chinese Casuarina equisetifolia landraces exhibit structures similar to Southeast Asian populations but also show evidence of hybridization with C. glauca. The study detected genomic variations linked to pathogen interactions along migration pathways and identified integrated adaptive signals in hybrids, including traits ...
