Camellia oleifera Abel, a woody oil plant, that is endemic to China. Tea oil, also referred to
as “oriental olive oil,” is a superior quality plant-based cooking oil. The production of tea oil …

Rice has been reported to be highly sensitive to salt stress at the seedling stage. However,
the lack of target genes that can be used for improving salt tolerance has resulted in several …

Kernel number per row (KNR) is an essential component of maize (Zea mays L.) grain yield
(GY), and understanding its genetic mechanism is crucial to improve GY. In this study, two …

Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br., 2n= 2x= 14, Poaceae), is a cross-pollinated,
warm-season crop grown worldwide. To select genotypes for breeding pearl millet cultivars …

Rice chromosomal segment substitution lines (CSSLs) are ideal materials for studying
quantitative traits such as grain size. Here, a rice large-grain CSSL-Z403 was identified …

Climate change is reducing water availability for crop production. Cultivated tomato,
Solanum lycopersicum, has a limited genetic base for improvement. A wild tomato, Solanum …

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is a widely consumed vegetable, and the tomato fruit
weight is a key yield component. Many quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling tomato fruit …

Single segment substitution line (SSSL) libraries are an ideal platform for breeding by
design. To develop SSSLs-Xihui18 covering the whole genome, a novel rice chromosome …

Molecular characterization was done for Green gram genotypes using SSR markers. The 14
green gram genotypes were clustered using ward method and squared Euclidean distance …

A large vascular bundle number (VBN) in the panicle neck in rice (Oryza sativa L.) is related
to the ability to transport assimilates from stem and leaf to reproductive organs during seed …
