Haplotype stacking to improve stability of stripe rust resistance in wheat.

TAG. Theoretical and applied genetics. Theoretische und angewandte Genetik
Genotype-by-environment interaction analysis and haplotype-level characterisation provide novel insights into the stability of stripe rust resistance. Breeding selection strategies are proposed to achieve rapid and stable genetic gains across environ...

Next-generation translational genomics for developing future crops.

Functional & integrative genomics
Advancements in translational genomics have revolutionized crop breeding, driving us from traditional breeding methods towards next-generation strategies that integrate genomic, transcriptomic, and phenotypic data to expedite crop improvement. There ...

Recent advances in breeding systems and their improvement in forage crops.

Molecular biology reports
Fodder crops are crops which are mainly grown as feed for livestocks and it consist of a variety of crops ranging from annual to perennial crops. Even with many crops involved, advance crop improvement practices are done less in these crops. With the...

Revolution and advances in gene editing and genomics technology for developing climate-resilient legume crops: developments and prospects.

Plant molecular biology
Legumes are essential for agriculture and food security. Biotic and abiotic stresses pose significant challenges to legume production, lowering productivity levels. Most legumes must be genetically improved by introducing alleles that give pest and d...

Integrated phenotypic analysis, predictive modeling, and identification of novel trait-associated loci in a diverse Theobroma cacao collection.

BMC plant biology
BACKGROUND: Cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) breeding and improvement rely on understanding germplasm diversity and trait architecture. This study characterized a cacao collection (173 accessions) evaluated in Puerto Rico, examining phenotypic diversity, t...

AdaptiveGS: an explainable genomic selection framework based on adaptive stacking ensemble machine learning.

TAG. Theoretical and applied genetics. Theoretische und angewandte Genetik
We developed an adaptive and unified stacking genomic selection framework and designed a model interpretation strategy to identify the candidate significant SNPs of target traits. Genomic selection (GS) is an important technique in modern molecular b...

In silico prediction of variant effects: promises and limitations for precision plant breeding.

TAG. Theoretical and applied genetics. Theoretische und angewandte Genetik
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...

Breeding perspectives on tackling trait genome-to-phenome (G2P) dimensionality using ensemble-based genomic prediction.

TAG. Theoretical and applied genetics. Theoretische und angewandte Genetik
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...

Integrating multi-omics and machine learning for disease resistance prediction in legumes.

TAG. Theoretical and applied genetics. Theoretische und angewandte Genetik
Multi-omics assisted prediction of disease resistance mechanisms using machine learning has the potential to accelerate the breeding of resistant legume varieties. Grain legumes, such as soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.), chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)...

Pan-omics insights into abiotic stress responses: bridging functional genomics and precision crop breeding.

Functional & integrative genomics
Crop production has been regarded as the major goal of agricultural activities, but the rapidly growing population and climate change have become more complex in the agricultural systems. Abiotic stress greatly affects crop productivity globally; dev...
