Embryo Rescue in Plant Breeding. [PDF]
Plants (Basel), 2023 Embryo rescue (ER) techniques are among the oldest and most successful in vitro tissue culture protocols used with plant species. ER refers to a series of methods that promote the development of an immature or lethal embryo into a viable plant. Intraspecific, interspecific, or intergeneric crosses allow the introgression of important alleles of ...

Biometry in plant breeding [PDF]
Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2021 Abstract In this manuscript we discuss the purpose and scope of biometry and its interactions, complementation, and even overlap with several other areas of genetics. We emphasize that biometry is an area of genetics that enables researchers to analyze, process, and interpret biological phenomena from data, usually obtained from experimental tests, in ...

Revised calculation of the coefficient of parentage in plant breeding [PDF]
Plant breeding, 2022, 2022 The Coefficient of Parentage (COP) between two individuals is the expected inbreeding of their offspring. Originally exploited by animal breeders, is now a routine calculation among plant breeders as part of crop improvement programs. Here we show that the COP between strains requires a different calculation than the used to calculate the COP between ...

Study on the multiple characteristics of M3 generation of pea mutants obtained by neutron irradiation [PDF]
Nuclear Science and Techniques, 2020,31:67, 2021 Irradiation breeding is an important technique in the effort to solve food shortages and improve the quality of agricultural products. In this study, a field test was implemented on the M3 generation of two mutant pea plants gained from previous neutron radiation of pea seeds. The relationship between agronomic characteristics and yields of the mutants

Mitigating tradeoffs in plant breeding [PDF]
iScience, 2021 Tradeoffs among plant traits help maintain relative fitness under unpredictable conditions and maximize reproductive success. However, modifying tradeoffs is a breeding challenge since many genes of minor effect are involved. The intensive crosstalk and fine-tuning between growth and defense responsive phytohormones via transcription factors optimizes ...

Transcriptome analysis of Gerbera hybrid: including in silico confirmation of defence genes found
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016 For the ornamental crop Gerbera hybrida, breeding at the moment is done using conventional methods. As this has drawbacks in breeding speed and efficiency, especially for complex traits like disease resistance, we set out to develop genomic resources ...
