Molecular Ecology, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Translocation programmes are increasingly being informed by genetic data to monitor and enhance conservation outcomes for both natural and established populations. These data provide a window into contemporary patterns of genetic diversity, structure and relatedness that can guide managers in how to best source animals for their translocation ...

Combining ability and heterosis in plant improvement
Open Journal of Plant Science, 2021 Information on combining ability and heterosis of parents and crossings is crucial in breeding efforts. Genetic variety is crucial to the effectiveness of yield improvement efforts because it helps to broaden gene pools in any given crop population.

Genetic Dissection of Hybrid Performance and Heterosis for Yield-Related Traits in Maize
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Heterosis contributes a big proportion to hybrid performance in maize, especially for grain yield. It is attractive to explore the underlying genetic architecture of hybrid performance and heterosis.

Exploring the molecular basis of heterosis for plant breeding.
Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, 2020 Since approximate a century ago, many hybrid crops have been continually developed by crossing two inbred varieties. Owing to heterosis (hybrid vigor) in plants, these hybrids often have superior agricultural performances in yield or disease resistance ...

The multi-omics basis of potato heterosis.
Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, 2021 Heterosis is a fundamental biological phenomenon characterized by the superior performance of hybrids over their parents. Although tremendous progress has been reported in seed crops, the molecular mechanisms underlying heterosis in clonally propagated ...
