Trait Heritability Estimates of an Open-pollinated Onion Population [PDF]

HortScience, 2004
Heritability estimates of bolting percentage (BP), pink root (PR) and Fusarium basal rot (FBR) incidences, and percentage of single centered (PSC) bulbs were calculated for an intermediate-day, open-pollinated onion population using selection response and half-sib (HS) family analyses.

Bumblebee cost-effectiveness for sunflower pollination in isolation cages

Ekonomika Poljoprivrede (1979), 2010
The lack of pollinators during sunflower seed production in isolation cages can lower the seed yield up to 90%. That is why we analyzed the cost-effectiveness of bumblebee usage as pollinators.
