Genomic selection (GS) has been promising for increasing genetic gains in several species.
Therefore, we evaluated the potential integration of GS for grain yield (GY) in bread wheat …

Association mapping (AM) is a powerful tool for fine mapping complex trait variation down to
nucleotide sequences by exploiting historical recombination events. A major problem in AM …

The development of germplasm adapted to changing climate is required to ensure food
security,. Genomic prediction is a powerful tool to evaluate many genotypes but performs …

Background Selection of an appropriate statistical significance threshold in genome-wide
association studies is critical to differentiate true positives from false positives and false …

Salinity of the soil is highly detrimental to plant growth. Plants respond by a redistribution of
root mass between main and lateral roots, yet the genetic machinery underlying this process …

Barley seeds need to be able to germinate and establish seedlings in saline soils in
Mediterranean-type climates. Despite being a major cereal crop, barley has few reported …

Plants are exposed to combinations of various biotic and abiotic stresses, but stress
responses are usually investigated for single stresses only. Here, we investigated the …

Assessing the genetic variability of plant performance under heat and drought scenarios can
contribute to reduce the negative effects of climate change. We propose here an approach …

As one of the world's most important food crops, the potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) has
spurred innovation in autotetraploid genetics, including in the use of SNP arrays to …

With high productivity and stress tolerance, numerous grass genera of the Andropogoneae
have emerged as candidates for bioenergy production. To optimize these candidates …
