    Genomes of the rice pest brown planthopper and its endosymbionts reveal complex complementary contributions for host adaptation

    The brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens, the most destructive pest of rice, is a typical monophagous herbivore that feeds exclusively on rice sap, which migrates over long distances. Outbreaks of it have re-occ...

    Genome-wide Comparisons of Gene Expression for Yield Heterosis in Maize

    Although heterosis is widely used in conventional plant breeding, its genetic mechanism has not been well understood at the molecular level. In this study, we identified a highly heterotic hybrid (C8605-2 × W1...
