Dissecting genetic variance structure and evaluating genomic prediction models for single-cross hybrids derived from Stiff Stalk and Non-Stiff Stalk maize heterotic groups

This study evaluates genomic prediction models for maize hybrids using GBLUP-based multi-kernel models to estimate genetic variance components and predict hybrid performance.

Large-effect loci in a duplicated genomic region modulate reproductive phenology in salmon

The paper identifies three large-effect loci in a duplicated genomic region that modulate migration timing across four salmon species, showing WGD-facilitated adaptive evolution.
