Epigenetics and plant breeding. [PDF]
CABI Reviews, 2012 Abstract The amazing ability of epigenetic mechanisms to respond to a wide range of developmental and environmental signals in eukaryotes has earned them a lot of attention. Indeed, epigenetically regulated gene expression (variations in gene expression obtained without permanent alteration of the DNA sequence) is involved in differentiation,

Plant metabolomics and breeding
2021Abstract Metabolomics has become essential in the field of phenotyping, providing information halfway between genomes and phenotypes that can be used to predict complex traits. Thus in plants, studies have shown that metabolomics can be used to predict complex traits such as leaf biomass or yield.

This paper discusses the question: what genetic contributions to efficiency of crop plant production may be expected in the next decade or two? Two aspects of efficiency are recognized. General efficiency, reflected in the yield of a standard product, is essentially a matter of conversion of carbon dioxide and radiant energy to a desired product with ...

A haploid is an organism that looks like a sporophyte, but has the chromosome complement of a reduced gamete. There are several ways in which haploids can occur or be induced in vivo : spontaneously, mostly associated with polyembryony, and through abnormal processes after crosses, like pseudogamy, semigamy ...

Abstract Over the centuries a variety of techniques have been developed to propagate plants vegetatively — dividing, layering, and grafting. These traditional methods are all slow, however, and in recent years there has been much interest in ‘test-tube’ breeding of plants.

TILLING is widely used in plant functional genomics. Mutagenesis and SNP detection is combined to allow for the isolation of mutations in genes of interest. It can also be used as a plant breeding tool, whereby variation in known or candidate genes of interest to breeding programs is generated. Here we describe a simple low-cost TILLING procedure.

Much of our most basic understanding of genetics has its roots in plant genetics and crop breeding. The study of plants has led to important insights into highly conserved biological process and a wealth of knowledge about development. Agriculture is now well positioned to take its share benefit from genomics.
