Bulliform cells comprise specialized cell types that develop on the adaxial (upper) surface of grass leaves, and are patterned to form linear rows along the proximodistal axis of the adult leaf blade. Bulliform cell patterning affects leaf angle and ...
BACKGROUND: Transforming large amounts of genomic data into valuable knowledge for predicting complex traits has been an important challenge for animal and plant breeders. Prediction of complex traits has not escaped the current excitement on machine...
BACKGROUND: High-throughput phenotyping based on non-destructive imaging has great potential in plant biology and breeding programs. However, efficient feature extraction and quantification from image data remains a bottleneck that needs to be addres...

The goal of this study was to compare the predictive performance of artificial neural networks (ANNs) with Bayesian ridge regression, Bayesian Lasso, Bayes A, Bayes B and Bayes Cπ in estimating genomic breeding values for meat tenderness in Nellore c...
Advances in high-throughput sequencing technologies have reduced the cost of genotyping dramatically and led to genomic prediction being widely used in animal and plant breeding, and increasingly in human genetics. Inspired by the efficient computing...
BACKGROUND: Whole-genome studies of vine cultivars have brought novel knowledge about the diversity, geographical relatedness, historical origin and dissemination, phenotype associations and genetic markers.

In biology, the term "epistasis" indicates the effect of the interaction of a gene with another gene. A gene can interact with an independently sorted gene, located far away on the chromosome or on an entirely different chromosome, and this interacti...
We present a comparison of machine learning methods for the prediction of four quantitative traits in Arabidopsis thaliana. High prediction accuracies were achieved on individuals grown under standardized laboratory conditions from the 1001 Arabidops...
BACKGROUND: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are rapidly advancing due to the improved resolution and completeness provided by Telomere-to-Telomere (T2T) and pangenome assemblies. While recent advancements in GWAS methods have primarily focused...
