Improving hybrid rice breeding programs via stochastic simulations: number of parents, number of hybrids, tester update, and genomic prediction of hybrid performance
Key messageSchemes that use genomic prediction outperform others, updating testers increases hybrid genetic gain, and larger population sizes tend to...

Fruit and Chromosome Number
Mora de Castilla fruits consist of an aggregation of drupelets, each containing a tiny seed. The 1–2-cm-long drupelets are linked to a central...

Closing the gap between the number of Phytophthora species isolated through baiting a soil sample and the number revealed through metabarcoding
This review assesses possible reasons for the discrepancy between the high numbers of Phytophthora species and putative new species isolated from...

The wall-associated kinase GWN1 controls grain weight and grain number in rice
Grain size is a crucial agronomic trait that determines grain weight and final yield. Although several genes have been reported to regulate grain...

Rootstock Affects the Number of Flowers in the Floral Bud in Sweet Cherries
In fruit cultivation, each flower is a fruit if it sets fruit. For this reason, the number of flowers in each floral bud is an important factor...
