The Role of Transcriptional Regulation in Hybrid Vigor [PDF]
The genetic basis of hybrid vigor in plants remains largely unsolved but strong evidence suggests that variation in transcriptional regulation can explain many aspects of this phenomenon. Natural variation in transcriptional regulation is highly abundant

Hybrid mimics and hybrid vigor in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
Significance Hybrids have an important role in many crops used for global food production. The increased production levels of biomass and grain are restricted to the first-generation hybrid. We report stabilization of hybrid vigor traits in pure breeding hybrid mimic lines. Comparison of the patterns of their gene

Triploid Hybrid Vigor in Above-Ground Growth and Methane Fermentation Efficiency of Energy Willow [PDF]
Hybrid vigor and polyploidy are genetic events widely utilized to increase the productivity of crops. Given that bioenergy usage needs to be expanded, we investigated triploid hybrid vigor in terms of the biology of biomass-related willow traits and ...

The Test of Hybrid Vigor of Singular Hybrids Extracted Locally From Corn Zea mays L. [PDF]
Two field experiments have been carried out one. The first in the station for research and agricultural experiments belongs to the college of agriculture university of al-Muthana ,during the spring season 2011. to formulate a singular hybrid from twenty

When I was president of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, I came to believe that the future success of humanity may depend on learning to use the tools of science--including the collection of objective evidence on what works and why--at all levels of decision-making. Thus, the National Academies have repeatedly addressed questions such as "How can

Late-stage vigor contributes to high grain yield in high-quality hybrid rice
Improving grain quality is critical to the development of hybrid rice. In recent years, multiple hybrid rice cultivars with superior grain quality have been developed in China through dedicated breeding efforts.

Vigor of hybrid corn seeds is determinant for the establishment of seedlings in the field [PDF]
The objective of this work was to determine the importance of vigor during the initial establishment of the maize crop. The work was carried out using 8 lots of hybrid corn seed, in which four lots were characterized as high vigor and four lots ...
