Additive Variance and Open‐Pollinated Progenies Under Mixed Mating
Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Open‐pollinated progeny tests are still widely interpreted as if all the individuals within a maternal family were true half‐sibs. However, in species with mixed mating systems, this assumption is often biologically unrealistic and may bias the estimation of the additive variance, narrow‐sense heritability and expected selection gains.

Studies on Heterosis in Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) [PDF]
, 2023 Throughout the last century, tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) breeding has been based on various standard methods, which has ultimately resulted in the development of improved tomato cultivars and hybrids having high quality and yield attributes.

A Century of Understanding and Harnessing Heterosis
Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Heterosis has shaped modern plant breeding since Darwin's 19th century observations that outcrossing restores vigour lost through selfing. While 100 years old, its mechanistic basis and deployability remain actively debated. Classical models of dominance, overdominance and epistasis provided the foundation for hybrid breeding and converted ...

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is a vital cereal crop in dry regions worldwide. However, in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA), grain yields from currently grown varieties remain low (< 1 ton/ha) and exhibit variable nutrient composition. Therefore, the objective of this study was to undertake a genetic analysis of selected East African‐adapted ...

Heterosis in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) [PDF]
, 1995 Twenty one soybean hybrids derived from a seven-parent half-diallel set along with their parents were evaluated to estimate heterosis. Heterosis was significant positive for yield in 16 hybrids over midparent and in 9 hybrids over better parent ...

Drone‐based phenotyping of maize for multiple disease resistance and yield in breeding field trials
The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Improving selection for multiple disease resistance (MDR) and yield in maize (Zea mays L.) requires high‐throughput, objective phenotyping tools, particularly under field conditions where several foliar diseases co‐occur. We evaluated drone‐based multispectral vegetation indices (VIs) for predicting resistance to northern leaf blight (NLB ...

Map-based cloning and characterization reveal that an R2R3 MYB gene confers red glume in wheat
Crop JournalPigment accumulation is an important trait related to wheat domestication, but there remains a limited understanding of its molecular mechanism. The genetic control of the red glume trait by a dominant allele, Rg-B1, on 1BS was reported in the last ...
