Abstract BACKGROUND Rice milling characteristics and storage stability are critical traits influencing industrial applications. Floury endosperm rice carrying the flo4‐4 allele is valuable for dry milling but exhibits reduced storage stability associated with altered starch structural characteristics.

Finding quantitative trait loci genes with collaborative targeted maximum likelihood learning
Quantitative trait loci mapping is focused on identifying the positions and effect of genes underlying an observed trait. We present a collaborative targeted maximum likelihood estimator in a semi-parametric model using a newly proposed 2-part super ...

Abstract BACKGROUND High‐molecular‐weight glutenin subunits (HMW‐GSs) are major determinants of dough rheological behavior and bread‐making quality in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Among wheat genomes, the Glu‐B1 locus exhibits the highest allelic diversity; however, recombination events between x‐ and y‐type HMW‐GS genes are considered extremely

Abstract BACKGROUND Downy mildew, caused by Pseudoperonospora cubensis, is one of the most destructive diseases affecting cucumber and remains difficult to manage sustainably through fungicide‐dependent control strategies. Although several resistance loci have been reported, many previously mapped regions remain too broad for efficient marker‐assisted ...

Focusing on the relevant probabilities in population assignment to identify and correct bias
Understanding and calculating conditional probabilities is essential to avoid misinterpretation of population assignment results. We demonstrate how to calculate conditional probabilities for assignments, identify the conditions under which the ability to assign individuals accurately is poor, and provide suggestions on how to mitigate these issues ...
