Changes in Non-Volatile and Volatile Metabolites Associated with Heterosis in Tea Plants (Camellia sinensis).

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2022
Heterosis or hybrid vigor is extensively used in plant breeding. However, the contribution of metabolites to heterosis is still elusive. Here, we systematically identified the non-volatile and volatile metabolites of two hybrids and their parents in ...

Tomato fruit quality traits and metabolite content are affected by reciprocal crosses and heterosis.

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2021
Heterosis occurs when the F1s outperform their parental lines for a trait. Reciprocal hybrids are obtained by changing the cross direction of parental genotypes. Both biological phenomena could affect the external and internal attributes of fleshy fruits.

A Theory of Heterosis

GENETICS
AbstractHeterosis refers to the superior performance of a hybrid over its parents. It is the basis for hybrid breeding particularly for maize and rice. Genetically it is due to interactions between alleles of quantitative trait loci (QTL) (dominance and epistasis).

Molecular Heterosis: A Review

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism, 2000
Molecular heterosis occurs when subjects heterozygous for a specific genetic polymorphism show a significantly greater effect (positive heterosis) or lesser effect (negative heterosis) for a quantitative or dichotomous trait than subjects homozygous for either allele.

Heterosis and morphism

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B - Biological Sciences, 1955
I shall deal only with the heterosis concerned with the genetic balance-mechanisms underlying morphism (balanced polymorphism as defined by E. B. Ford). All morphisms found in nature must involve a selective balance between the morphs (R. A.

Heterosis in Cotton

1998
Heterosis is a term used to describe the phenomenon in which the performance of an F1, produced by the crossing of two homozygous but genetically different individuals, is superior to that of the best parent. Since the time Shull (1914) introduced the term heterosis, breeders have made wide use of this phenomenon, and the list of crops in which ...

The Genomics of Oryza Species Provides Insights into Rice Domestication and Heterosis.

Annual Review of Plant Biology, 2019
Here, we review recent progress in genetic and genomic studies of the diversity of Oryza species. In recent years, unlocking the genetic diversity of Oryza species has provided insights into the genomics of rice domestication, heterosis, and complex ...

The Heterosis of Operculicarya

Cactus and Succulent Journal, 2010
O perculicarya (O.) species have been praised by growers, collectors, and exhibitors for decades. It seems that almost all of the species are considered great subjects for staging and are highly desirable because of their care-free nature. The incredible diversity amongst them ranges from tree form to true caudiciform, each with its own set of unique ...
