Genetic dissection of plant architecture, development, and seed morphology in exotic × elite Upland cotton populations

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) breeding has primarily emphasized fiber yield and quality, yet plant architectural, developmental, and seed morphological traits also play key roles in productivity and management. Here, we dissect the genetic basis of four such traits: plant height (HT), number of nodes with one branch (N1B), days to flowering ...

Engineering a Gibberellin‐Switchable Dual‐Use Line Based on Ent‐Kaurene Oxidase Gene ZmKO1 Enables Two‐Line Hybrid Seed Production in Maize

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4361-4377, June 2026.
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 ...

Reducing the rank of the gauge group in orbifold compactifications of the heterotic string [PDF]

Physics Letters B, 1987
Abstract Using the fact that the space group of an orbifold is non-abelian, we can reduce the rank of the four-dimensional gauge group obtained from orbifold compactification of the heterotic string. The embedding of the space group in the gauge degrees of freedom is performed by assigning shifts (Wilson lines) in the E 8 × E 8 lattice to the ...

HETEROTIC GROUP FORMATION IN PSIDIUM GUAJAVA L. BY ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORK AND DISCRIMINANT ANALYSIS

Revista Brasileira de Fruticultura, 2016
The present study aimed at evaluating the heterotic group formation in guava based on quantitative descriptors and using artificial neural network (ANN). For such, we evaluated eight quantitative descriptors.

Comparison of combining ability based heterotic grouping methods and assigning a set of germplasm lines to existing testers in rabi sorghum[Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench]

Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2022
In the present study, 31 male lines and three females, were crossed in Line × Tester mating design and 93 hybrids were produced to assign these lines to three testers viz., 104A, 401A and M31-2A.

Comparative Phytochemical and Fatty Acid Profiling of Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) Cultivars Across Diverse Geographic Origins

European Journal of Lipid Science and Technology, Volume 128, Issue 5, May 2026.
Flax varieties differ in growth, oil quality, and beneficial compounds, but these differences are not always clear‐cut. In this study, 10 flax types were grown under the same conditions and compared for plant traits, natural compounds, and oil content. Some showed high omega‐3 and lignan levels, making them valuable for healthier foods and future crop ...

Heterotic compactifications with principal bundles for general groups and general levels [PDF]

Advances in Theoretical and Mathematical Physics, 2010
We examine to what extent heterotic string worldsheets can describe arbitrary E8xE8 gauge fields. The traditional construction of heterotic strings builds each E8 via a Spin(16)/Z2 subgroup, typically realized as a current algebra by left-moving fermions, and as a result, only E8 gauge fields reducible to Spin(16)/Z2 gauge fields are directly ...

Geometry of Supergravity and the Batalin–Vilkovisky Formulation of the N=1$\mathcal N=1$ Theory in Ten Dimensions

Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT We provide full details of a BV formulation of N=1$\mathcal N=1$ supergravity in 10 dimensions, to all orders in fermions, built from the generalised geometry description of the theory. In contrast to standard treatments, we introduce neither the degrees of freedom corresponding to orthonormal frames for the metric nor the local Lorentz ...

Additive and Partially Dominant Effects from Genomic Variation Contribute to Rice Heterosis

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 20, 9 April 2026.
Additive and partially dominant effects, namely at mid‐parent levels or values between mid‐parent and parental levels, respectively, are the predominant inheritance patterns of heterosis‐associated molecules. These two genetic effects contribute to heterosis of agronomic traits in both rice and maize, as well as biomass heterosis in Arabidopsis ...
