SUMMARY Deep sequencing is a term that has become embedded in the plant genomic literature in recent years and with good reason. A torrent of (largely) high‐quality genomic and transcriptomic data has been collected and most of this has been publicly released.

Atrazine, mesosulfuron‐methyl, and topramezone persistence in North Carolina soils
Abstract Investigating the effects of soil properties on herbicide persistence can aid in evaluating the carryover potential of herbicides in soil and the consequent injury risk to rotational crops. Laboratory incubation experiments were conducted to quantify the persistence of atrazine, mesosulfuron‐methyl, and topramezone in five regional soils under

Phytotoxicity including autotoxicity and allelopathy is the immediate or indirect biochemical impact of one organism on the germination, growth, survival, and reproduction of other organisms or improvement of neighbouring plant species through the arrival of substances into the environment.

Path correlation and Bayesian analysis on popping expansion components in popcorn hybrids
Knowing the cause and effect among two or more traits can help to increase the selection accuracy of superior genotypes. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the cause and effect relationship between expansion volume and kernel size in ...

Population structure and impact of recurrent selection on popcorn using EST-SSR markers
The success of any recurrent selection program depends on the genetic variability of the evaluated population, which is used to refer to the diversity of existing alleles at many genetic loci.

Effect of priming agents on seed germination of three corn species
This study determines the effect of different priming agents (water, sodium chloride, potassium nitrate and calcium sulphate) on seed germination and sprout development in Guinea corn (Sorghum bicolor), millet (Pennisetum glaucum) and popcorn maize (Zea

Improving accelerated aging and electrical conductivity tests to assess popcorn seed vigor
Laboratories constantly evaluate seed lot quality under controlled conditions; however, these tests may overestimate actual field values, making vigor tests indispensable.

Abstract Measuring directional root placement is critical for understanding plant responses to their below‐ground environment, and particularly their competing neighbours. Directional root placement is commonly measured using image analysis of roots growing in transparent pots (rhizoboxes), where the length of the root system of the target plants is ...

Impact of Fusarium sp. severity and agronomic traits on popcorn popping expansion
Abstract The study of relationships between traits is essential for understanding the behavior of variables of interest and advancing breeding programs. In popcorn (Zea mays L. var. everta (Sturtev) L.H. Bailey), popping expansion (PE) is considered the primary quality trait, but knowledge about the impact of agronomic traits and Fusarium spp ...

ABSTRACT Genetic diversity studies and molecular characterization offer crucial insights into preserving germplasm and maximizing its utility effectively. Therefore, the present study aimed to verify the genetic diversity, population structure and linkage disequilibrium in a set of maize (Zea mays L.) germplasm adapted to South Brazil composed of 351 ...
