Abstract The pervasiveness of obesity necessitates expanded pursuits to understand mechanistic drivers of the condition. Maternal diet during conception and gestation can program offspring towards excessive weight gain. Furthermore, the association between obesity and hypertension suggests that maternal programming may impact offspring vascular ...

Abstract Solanum tuberosum L. (potato) is the world's most important vegetable crop, and developing improved cultivars is paramount for global food security. The efficacy of the genomic prediction models that accelerate breeding and genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) depends on large, high‐quality phenotypic datasets, which are often associated ...
