Marker Selection in Multivariate Genomic Prediction Improves Accuracy of Low Heritability Traits
Multivariate analysis using mixed models allows for the exploration of genetic correlations between traits. Additionally, the transition to a genomic based approach is simplified by substituting classic pedigrees with a marker-based relationship matrix ...

Tillage does not impact soil greenhouse gas emissions in a Central Texas rainfed maize–cotton system
Abstract Agricultural soils are a significant source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, primarily as N2O. Monitoring how management practices impact soil gas fluxes (CO2, CH4, and N2O) is useful for making sure conservation practices (e.g., no‐till) are sustainable with regards to all potential environmental impacts.

Abstract Genetic enhancement of crop plants such as kola [Cola nitida (Vent) Schott. & Endl.] can be made effective and efficient via estimates of genetic parameters. Our study evaluated genetic parameters to provide insights into heritable variability and character associations in kola to guide variety development.

Dwarfing citrus rootstocks restrict flush shoot growth on the scion, thereby reducing Asian citrus psyllid infestation, dispersal, and huanglongbing (HLB) progression. These findings support the use of dwarfing rootstocks as an effective cultural strategy in integrated HLB management for citrus orchards.

ABSTRACT Trehalose 6‐phoshpate (Tre6P) is a key signalling molecule that reflects carbon status and integrates it with developmental decision making. Tre6P has been demonstrated to regulate various developmental processes, including vegetative growth, shoot branching, flowering, and root branching.

Physiological dominance of the scion in shaping root architecture under suboptimal temperature
Abstract BACKGROUND Non‐optimal temperatures have become a major constraint on plant development under rapidly changing climatic conditions. Both suboptimal and supra‐optimal temperatures reduce physiological activity, alter plant morphology, lead to plant mortality, and ultimately decrease crop productivity.

Managing the Environmental Impacts of Outdoor Winter Grazing by Livestock
This review presents a synthesis of current knowledge about managing the potential impacts of outdoor animal wintering activities and their consequences for a range of environmental outcomes. The scope is confined to field‐based wintering approaches and thus, does not consider issues associated with the winter use of animal shelters or standoff systems.

Genomic forecasting for climate‐resilient fruit trees
Genomic offset and required evolutionary changes under climatic shifts. Summary Fruit trees – long‐lived perennial crops cultivated for their edible fruits or nuts and frequently propagated clonally – are increasingly exposed to climate extremes that threaten their productivity and survival.
