Impact of genotype × environment interaction and selection history on genomic prediction in maize (Zea mays L.)

Crop Science, Volume 64, Issue 6, Page 3293-3310, November/December 2024.
Abstract Breeders made remarkable progress in improving productivity and stability of cultivars. Breeding progress relies on selecting favorable alleles for performance and stability to produce productive varieties across diverse environments. In this study, we analyzed the Genomes to Fields Initiative 2018–2019 genotype by environment interaction (G ×

Identification of Combining Ability Patterns for Pearl Millet Hybrid Breeding in West Africa

Crop Science, Volume 59, Issue 4, Page 1590-1603, July-August 2019., 2019
ABSTRACT Diets of West African (WA) smallholder farmers are built on pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.]. Sustainable pearl millet hybrid breeding is challenging in WA, mostly due to an extensive genetic diversity combined with a high degree of admixture. In the absence of natural heterotic groups, understanding combining ability patterns can

Heterosis in landrace-based topcross hybrids of pearl millet across arid environments [PDF]

Euphytica, 2000
This study quantified the magnitude of heterosis in pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) topcross hybrids produced by crossing 16 diverse landraces and three high yielding open-pollinating varieties on two homozygous male-sterile lines. Hybrids and pollinators were grown in 12 year ×;location combinations in India that were grouped into three zones ...

Modeling the impact of resource allocation decisions on genomic prediction using maize multi‐environment data

Crop Science, Volume 64, Issue 5, Page 2748-2767, September/October 2024.
Abstract In a hybrid maize (Zea mays L.) breeding program that utilizes genomic selection, resource allocation used in phenotypic data acquisition must be balanced between population size, number of environments, and the number of testers used for generating hybrids. Plant breeders evaluate newly developed inbred lines using multi‐environment trials to

Status of Global Pearl Millet Breeding Programs and the Way Forward

Crop Science, Volume 57, Issue 6, Page 2891-2905, November–December 2017., 2017
Pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.] is a warm‐season, C4 annual cereal primarily grown in Africa and India for food and fodder. It is also grown in the United States, mainly as a forage crop on a limited area. It is the sixth most important cereal crop in the world. More than 90 million people around the world rely on it as a food grain.

Near‐infrared reflectance spectroscopy phenomic prediction can perform similarly to genomic prediction of maize agronomic traits across environments

The Plant Genome, Volume 17, Issue 2, June 2024.
Abstract For nearly two decades, genomic prediction and selection have supported efforts to increase genetic gains in plant and animal improvement programs. However, novel phenomic strategies for predicting complex traits in maize have recently proven beneficial when integrated into across‐environment sparse genomic prediction models. One phenomic data

Three-Way Top-Cross Hybrids to Enhance Production of Forage with Improved Quality in Pearl Millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.)

Agriculture, 2022
Three-way top-cross hybrids of pearl millet were evaluated along with a popular single- cross check hybrid (PAC 981) for forage yield and quality traits under a multi-cut (three cuts) system across multiple years, seasons and sites in India.
