Toward improved drought tolerance in bioenergy crops: QTL for carbon isotope composition and stomatal conductance in Populus

, 2013
Dedicated non-food bioenergy crops like poplar are needed as sustainable, low-input feedstocks for renewable energy in a future drier climate, where they can be grown on marginal soils. Such plants should have a low water, carbon, and chemical footprint.

Genetic Evaluation of Pure Line Laying Hens Based on Crossover Testing Data From Simulated Populations

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Commercial laying hen breeding programs aim to maximize the performance of crossbred animals. However, selection is usually based on data from pure lines raised in controlled nucleus environments, which may not fully predict the yields under commercial conditions.

Genome‐Wide Association Studies for Anogenital Distance and Linear Type Traits in Gir Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although linear type traits have been under selection in the Dairy Gir cattle for the past three decades, there are few studies exploring genetic architecture for these traits. The aim of this study was to identify candidate genes for anogenital distance and linear type traits in the Gir breed. For this study, the body measures of rump length (

Infectious Pancreatic Necrosis in Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua): Complete Viral Genome Characterization From the First Norwegian Field Case Suggests Cross‐Species Transmission

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We describe the first natural outbreak of infectious pancreatic necrosis (IPN) in farmed Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) in Norway. IPN was originally described in young salmonids, but the greatest losses have historically occurred in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) following sea transfer despite high vaccination coverage.

A Comparison of Methods to Estimate Additive–by–Additive–by–Additive of QTL×QTL×QTL Interaction Effects by Monte Carlo Simulation Studies

, 2023
The goal of the breeding process is to obtain new genotypes with traits improved over the parental forms. Parameters related to the additive effect of genes as well as their interactions (such as epistasis of gene–by–gene interaction effect ...

Genomic variation drives plant flavor diversification

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review explains how genomic variation shapes plant flavor by altering the biosynthetic and regulatory pathways of key attributes like sweetness, acidity, bitterness, piquancy, astringency, and aroma. It also discusses how multi‐omics, AI‐assisted breeding, and gene editing can translate this knowledge into plants with improved flavor, nutrition ...

A chromosome-level genome assembly of an elite indica breeding line resolves the genomic architecture of drought-yield QTLs qDTY_2.2 and qDTY_4.1 in rice. [PDF]

Plant Genome
Abstract Drought‐yield quantitative trait loci (QTLs) qDTY2.2 and qDTY4.1 improve grain yield under reproductive‐stage drought in rice (Oryza sativa L.), yet their genomic architecture remains poorly resolved in elite indica breeding backgrounds. We generated a chromosome‐level assembly of IR87707‐446‐B‐B‐B (IR64‐qDTY2.2 + qDTY4.1), which carries both ...

High‐quality genome of elite peanut cultivar ZH05 reveals subgenome asymmetry, pan‐genome diversity, and breeding insights

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
A high‐quality reference genome for the elite peanut cultivar Zhonghua No. 5 revealed differing evolutionary paths between the two peanut subgenomes. SubA has higher overall gene expression and more open chromatin, whereas SubB has stronger structural organization, higher DNA methylation, and greater adaptive diversity associated with peanut evolution ...
