Abstract Fruit size, shape, color, and percent fruit rot are important quality traits for breeding cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait.). Image analysis can be used to measure these traits, but affordable hardware for standardized image capture and integrated user‐friendly software pipelines are lacking.

Abstract Perennial grains represent a promising frontier for sustainable agriculture, but breeding progress is constrained by the accessibility of genotyping and the difficulty of evaluating complex traits expressed for multiple years after establishment across heterogeneous environments.

Abstract Plant height is one of the key economic traits in spring oat (Avena sativa L.) and a major determinant of lodging, and consequently, yield potential. Understanding the genetic basis of the variation in plant height can significantly benefit plant improvement efforts.

Abstract Scald, caused by the fungus Rhynchosporium graminicola Heinsen 1897, is a major foliar disease in winter malting barley (Hordeum vulgare L). Resistance to scald in winter malting barley is controlled by major and minor resistance genes. We used a population of 377 lines derived from biparental crosses among five winter malting barley parents ...

Abstract Complex agronomic traits in rice (Oryza sativa L.) are controlled by many genetic loci; however, dissection is often constrained in biparental mapping populations by limited recombination and narrow genetic diversity, and in diversity sets by spurious associations arising from cryptic relatedness.

A haplotype‐based approach to explore genotype‐by‐environment interactions for barley yield
Abstract Climate change poses a significant threat to cereal production, making it increasingly important to understand the role of genotype‐by‐environment interactions (GEIs) in crops. Traditional breeding approaches consider GEIs at a whole genotype level missing valuable breeding potential that can be dissected by exploring this relationship at a ...

Genome‐wide prediction of cloned disease resistance homologues across the Oryza genus
Abstract The wild relatives of rice (Oryza sativa L.) represent reservoirs of genetic diversity and potential sources of novel pest and disease resistance. The recent availability of high‐quality Oryza genome assemblies has enabled greater exploration of this diversity across the genus.

Abstract Rice blast, caused by Magnaporthe oryzae (syn. Pyricularia oryzae), remains a major disease in US rice (Oryza sativa L.) production, highlighting the need for additional resistance loci and continued development of blast‐resistant rice varieties. We evaluated 258 US elite long‐grain breeding lines for resistance to four M.

Abstract Genome‐wide association studies (GWASs) typically require large populations to achieve sufficient statistical power; however, maintaining large populations is labor‐intensive and costly. In this study, we evaluated the feasibility of improving GWAS detection power by strategically integrating small maize (Zea mays L.) subpopulations for kernel‐

Abstract Harmful T‐2 and HT‐2 mycotoxins are produced by Fusarium langsethiae and Fusarium sporotrichioides in developing oat (Avena sativa L.) grain. This study identified oat genotypes with consistently low toxin accumulation across environments. Toxin enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay and fungal DNA (quantitative polymerase chain reaction) levels ...
