Heat stress is a major limiting factor for crop productivity. Tomato is highly sensitive to heat
stress, which can result in a total yield loss. To adapt to current and future heat stress, there …

Key message CSSLs are a complete library of introgression lines with chromosomal
segments of usually a distant genotype in an adapted background and are valuable genetic …

Progress in plant breeding depends on the development of genetic resources, genetic
knowledge, and breeding techniques. The core of plant breeding is the use of naturally …

Rice is one of the most important crops in the world. The wild species of rice are expected to
have novel beneficial alleles that have been lost from cultivated rice during the process of …

As one of the most important crops, Asian cultivated rice has evolved into a complex group
including several subgroups adapting various eco-climate-systems around the globe. Here …

In the last decade, association mapping (AM) has become a well-established method to
detect genes and quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated with agronomically important traits …

Microbial communities from rhizosphere (rhizomicrobiomes) have been significantly
impacted by domestication as evidenced by a comparison of the rhizomicrobiomes of wild …
