Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Proper selection of genetic material is critical for restoring populations, with local seed often selected to maximize local adaptation. But if local populations are small, inbred, or maladapted, then including genotypes from various populations may enhance population growth and long‐term adaptation.

Drone‐based phenotyping of maize for multiple disease resistance and yield in breeding field trials
The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Improving selection for multiple disease resistance (MDR) and yield in maize (Zea mays L.) requires high‐throughput, objective phenotyping tools, particularly under field conditions where several foliar diseases co‐occur. We evaluated drone‐based multispectral vegetation indices (VIs) for predicting resistance to northern leaf blight (NLB ...

Heterosis and nicking ability studies for yield and fibre quality in intra-hirsutum hybrids
Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2020 The present investigation aims at estimating per se performance, combining ability and standard heterosis for 16 biometrical traits using 40intra-hirsutumhybrids synthesized from eight ovule and five pollen parents in Line × Tester fashion.

Line x tester analysis for heterosis in groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.)
Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2017 A study was conducted in groundnut to estimate the magnitude of heterosis for eleven yield contributing characters. Fifteen F1s were developed by utilizing eight diverse parents, 3 lines and 5 testers in Line x Testers mating design during Kharif 2015 ...

Heterosis for seed yield and yield components over environments in castor (Ricinus communis L.) [PDF]
Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2011 Investigation with 10 diverse inbreds, their 45 hybrids (generated by diallel mating design excluding reciprocals) along with two standard checks viz; GCH-4 and GCH-5 was taken up over four environments (two fertility levels and two sowing dates) to ...

Gene action and standard heterosis over environments in Rice (Oryza sativa L.)
Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2014 The present study on genetic components of variance carried over individual and pooled environments for thirteen metric traits in rice revealed the greater magnitude of dominance component than corresponding additive component of variance, thereby showing greater role of dominance in genetic control for most of the traits.
