Genomic prediction models for count data
(Springer Verlag; American Statistical Association; International Biometrics Society, 2015)
Whole genome prediction models are useful tools for breeders when selecting candidate individuals early in life for rapid genetic gains. However, most prediction models developed so far assume that the response variable ...

Genetic dissection on rice grain shape by the two-dimensional image analysis in one japonica × indica population consisting of recombinant inbred lines
(Springer, 2015)
Two-dimensional (2D) digital image analysis is efficient for investigating the rice grain shape characters in large genetic and breeding populations. In this study, we used 2D image analysis to investigate seven characters, ...

Inclusive composite interval mapping of QTL by environment interactions in biparental populations
(Public Library of Science, 2015)
Identification of environment-specific QTL and stable QTL having consistent genetic effects across a wide range of environments is of great importance in plant breeding. Inclusive Composite Interval Mapping (ICIM) has been ...

Genomic dissection of leaf angle in maize (Zea mays L.) using a four-way cross mapping population
(Public Library of Science, 2015)
Increasing grain yield by the selection for optimal plant architecture has been the key focus in modern maize breeding. As a result, leaf angle, an important determinant of plant architecture, has been significantly improved ...

Large-scale evaluation of maize germplasm for low-phosphorus tolerance
(Public Library of Science, 2015)
Low-phosphorus (LP) stress is a global problem for maize production and has been exacerbated by breeding activities that have reduced the genetic diversity of maize. Although LP tolerance in maize has been previously ...

Modelación de la interacción genotipo x ambiente en rendimiento de hibridos de maiz blanco en ambientes múltiples
(Sociedad Mexicana de Fitogenética, 2015)
Los programas de fitomejoramiento enfocados a la obtención de genotipos con mayor rendimiento y estables en una amplia gama de condiciones ambientales enfrentan factores ambientales que enmascaran el potencial de los ...

Drought susceptibility of modern rice varieties: an effect of linkage of drought tolerance with undesirable traits
(Nature Publishing, 2015)
Green Revolution (GR) rice varieties are high yielding but typically drought sensitive. This is partly due to the tight linkage between the loci governing plant height and drought tolerance. This linkage is illustrated ...

Estudio del NDVI mediante análisis multiescalar y series temporales utilizando imágenes SPOT, durante el período 1998-2012 en el Uruguay
(Asociación Española de Teledetección, 2015)
Article
Analysis and interpretation of interactions in agricultural research
(American Society of Agronomy, 2015)
When reporting on well-conducted research, a characteristic of a complete and proper manuscript is one that includes analyses and interpretations of all interactions. Our purpose is to show how to analyze and interpret ...

A Genome-Wide Association study for culm cellulose content in barley reveals candidate genes co-expressed with members of the CELLULOSE SYNTHASE A gene family
(Public Library of Science, 2015)
Cellulose is a fundamentally important component of cell walls of higher plants. It provides a scaffold that allows the development and growth of the plant to occur in an ordered fashion. Cellulose also provides mechanical ...
