Optimizing genomic predictions in maize using a diversity panel and a multiparental population. [PDF]
Abstract Genomic selection allows the prediction of genetic values using SNP markers distributed across the genome. Its effectiveness depends on factors such as trait heritability, genetic similarity between training and validation sets, and population structure.

Season over plant sex: drivers of leaf damage and plant defence in a dioecious Mediterranean shrub. [PDF]
Considering both seasons revealed higher late‐season herbivory in males than in females of Pistacia lentiscus, while overall herbivory increased and traits varied seasonally. Abstract In dioecious plants, females often prioritize reproduction over growth, potentially investing more in defence, while males grow faster but allocate fewer resources to ...

Limited attention has been paid to maize (Zea mays L.) resistance induced by corn borer damage, although evidence shows that induced defenses have lower resource allocation costs than constitutive defenses. Maize responses to short- and long-term feeding

Plant Development and Crop Yield: The Role of Gibberellins
Gibberellins have been classically related to a few key developmental processes, thus being essential for the accurate unfolding of plant genetic programs. After more than a century of research, over one hundred different gibberellins have been described.
