Capturing hybrid vigor for lentil breeding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Conventional breeding has produced low levels of yield increase in lentils (Lens culinaris ssp. culinaris Medik.) in recent decades. As hybrids have led to large increases in yield in other crops, we examined the possibility of using hybrids in lentils ...

PIF4-controlled auxin pathway contributes to hybrid vigor in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2017
F1 hybrids in Arabidopsis and crop species are uniform and high yielding. The F2 generation loses much of the yield advantage and the plants have heterogeneous phenotypes.

Altered Mobility and Accumulation of Inefficient Workers in Juvenile Hybrid Termite Colonies

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Hybridization of two different species is an important mechanism to have gene flows between species. Recently, mating of two economically important invasive species of subterranean termites (Coptotermes formosanus and Coptotermes gestroi) have been ...

Agronomic strategies to enhance the early vigor and yield of maize part II: the role of seed applied biostimulant, hybrid, and starter fertilization on crop performance

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Maize cropping systems need to be re-designed, within a sustainable intensification context, by focusing on the application of high-use efficiency crop practices, such as those that are able to enhance an early plant vigor in the first critical growth ...

Relationship between Selfing Generations and Hybrid Vigor in Maize (Zea mays L.) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Plant Production, 2018
Self-pollination even for a few generations can result in a considerable alteration in the genetic recital of plant population. In general, hybrid vigor tends to be more positive with higher values along with selfing generations.

Implementing Bos Indicus-Influenced Cattle in Utah for Hybrid Vigor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Crossbreeding is a tool that cattle producers have used for decades. Hybrid vigor is one of the products of crossing breeding. One way to maximize hybrid vigor is by introducing Bos indicus genetics in a herd.
