Deep learning offers new approaches to investigate the mechanisms underlying complex biological phenomena, such as subgenome dominance. Subgenome dominance refers to the dominant expression and/or biased fractionation of genes in one subgenome of all...
Alfalfa is widely recognized as an important forage crop. To understand the morphological characteristics and genetic basis of seed morphology in alfalfa, we screened 318 Medicago spp., including 244 Medicago sativa subsp. sativa (alfalfa) and 23 oth...
Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) plays a crucial role in global sugar production; however, the efficiency of breeding programs has been hindered by its heterozygous polyploid genomes. Considering non-additive genetic effects is essential in genome predicti...
N-methylcytosine (4mC) is a modified form of cytosine found in DNA, contributing to epigenetic regulation. It exists in various genomes, including the Rosaceae family encompassing significant fruit crops like apples, cherries, and roses. Previous inv...

As a promising model, genome-based plant breeding has greatly promoted the improvement of agronomic traits. Traditional methods typically adopt linear regression models with clear assumptions, neither obtaining the linkage between phenotype and genot...
As a fundamental global staple crop, rice plays a pivotal role in human nutrition and agricultural production systems. However, its complex genetic architecture and extensive trait variability pose challenges for breeders and researchers in optimizin...
Elucidating the relationship between non-coding regulatory element sequences and gene expression is crucial for understanding gene regulation and genetic variation. We explored this link with the training of interpretable deep learning models predict...
Many methodologies are used to predict the genetic merit in animals and plants, but some of them require priori assumptions that may increase the complexity of the model. Artificial neural network (ANN) has advantage to not require priori assumptions...
