Reactive oxygen species act as signaling molecules to control root hair initiation and tip growth
Summary Root hairs (RHs) increase the surface area of roots, facilitating nutrient and water uptake and plant anchorage. RHs form from root epidermal cells and elongate by polar tip growth. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have recently been implicated as important signals that drive RH formation and elongation using both genetic and imaging approaches ...

A comprehensive review of the genetic control of cooking time in dry beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)
Reducing cooking time could increase dry beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) consumption. Cooking is an essential processing step needed to unlock the nutrients in dry beans and to make them palatable and safe for consumption. Long cooking times have consequences for dry bean use, especially where cooking fuel cost is high and when people prefer foods that are ...

Strategies for Selecting Crosses Using Genomic Prediction in Two Wheat Breeding Programs
The single most important decision in plant breeding programs is the selection of appropriate crosses. The ideal cross would provide superior predicted progeny performance and enough diversity to maintain genetic gain. The aim of this study was to compare the best crosses predicted using combinations of mid‐parent value and variance prediction ...

The Use of Crop Wild Relatives in Maize and Sunflower Breeding
Conservation of crop wild relatives (CWR) has always been predicated on the promise of new and useful traits, and thus modern genetics and genomics tools must help fulfill the promise and continue to secure the conservation of these resources. However, the vast genetic potential present in CWR is often difficult to tap, as identification of superior ...
