Sequence-based AI models show great potential for prediction of variant effects at high resolution, but their practical value in plant breeding remains to be confirmed through rigorous validation studies. Plant breeding has traditionally relied on ph...
N6-methyladenine (6 mA) has emerged as a potential epigenetic marker in eukaryotic genomes, yet its precise distribution patterns and biological functions in plant genomes are still not fully understood. In this study, we investigated the occurrence,...

Trait Genome-to-Phenome (G2P) dimensionality and "breeding context" combine to influence the realised prediction skill of different whole genome prediction (WGP) methods. Theory and empirical evidence both suggest there is likely to be "No Free Lunch...
As one of the most critical post-replication modifications, N6-methylation (6mA) at adenine residue plays an important role in a variety of biological functions. Existing computational methods for identifying 6mA sites across large genomic regions te...
Through multi-faceted comparative analysis of MITEs across six pear genomes, we revealed their distribution patterns, functional impacts and their significant role as genomic origins for miRNAs, with copy number being the most critical factor for MIT...
Plants exhibit extensive environment-dependent intraspecific metabolic variation, which likely plays a role in determining variation in whole plant phenotypes. However, much of the work seeking to use natural variation to link genes and transcript's ...
Big data, combined with artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, holds the potential to significantly enhance the accuracy of genome-wide predictions. Motivated by the success reported for wheat hybrids, we extended the scope to inbred lines by integ...
Genomic prediction is a powerful approach that predicts phenotypic traits from genotypic information, enabling the acceleration of trait improvement in plant breeding. Traditional genomic prediction methods have primarily relied on linear mixed mode...
