Abstract Introduction Proper selection of genetic material is critical for restoring populations, with local seed often selected to maximize local adaptation. But if local populations are small, inbred, or maladapted, then including genotypes from various populations may enhance population growth and long‐term adaptation.

Habitat Predicts Levels of Genetic Admixture in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Genetic admixture can provide material for populations to adapt to local environments, and this process has played a crucial role in the domestication of plants and animals.

Abstract Grain characteristics are the cumulative product of growth and development throughout the growing season. In barley (Hordeum vulgare), these traits determine the grain's value for malting purposes. The ability to accurately predict the genetic merit for malting quality is of great interest for barley breeding programs. Same‐season selection on

Outcrossing rates in a rare “ornithophilous” aloe are correlated with bee visitation
Pollinator taxa may vary in their contribution to plant outcrossing rates and hence differ in their influence on plant fitness. In plants that have ornithophilous floral traits (large, deep-tubed orange-red flowers with dilute nectar), it is expected ...

Hemp seed counting and morphometric analysis method comparison
Abstract The USDA ARS Hemp Germplasm Laboratory recently acquired over 800 hemp accessions (Cannabis sativa L.). Variation in hemp seed size characteristics is needed to develop quantitative standards to support the transition of hemp grain into a commodity.

A tool to breed A-lines with high outcrossing ability
Seed production is the limiting factor for hybrid rice expansion. The hybrid parents' outcrossing ability is the key point to increase seed production. To breed for outcrossing ability, it is necessary to dispose of variability and evaluate, as soon as ...

The potential of seedbank digital information in plant conservation
Seedbanks are vital for biodiversity conservation, but their potential remains underutilised due to a limited understanding of the intraspecific genetic diversity they hold. By leveraging digitised data associated with seedbank collections, such as sampling locations, number of maternal plants and seed traits, we can attempt the estimation of genetic ...

Exploring the genetic diversity and reproductive strategies of Paspalum species is essential for advancing forage grass improvement. We compared morpho-phenological, molecular, and genotypic variation in five tetraploid Paspalum species with contrasting ...

Comparative reproduction mechanisms of three species of Ocimum L. (Lamiaceae)
Ocimum species have a combination of reproductive system which varies with the locality and cultivar. We have studied here the reproductive mechanisms of five variants of three Ocimum species in Nigeria, namely: Ocimum canum Sims., O. basilicum L., and O.
