Analyzing and optimizing yield formation of tomato introgression lines using plant model
Generally, the relation between quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and yield is empirical, and their roles in source-sink dynamics are unclear. A tomato...

Neanderthal introgression reintroduced functional ancestral alleles lost in Eurasian populations
Neanderthal ancestry remains across modern Eurasian genomes and introgressed sequences influence diverse phenotypes. Here, we demonstrate that...

Introgression of Sub1 QTL alters aerenchyma-mediated gas exchange and stored carbohydrates to maintain yield under flooding stress in rice
Floods can completely submerge rice fields. When rice is submerged, various anatomical and physiological changes occur at cellular and whole plant...
