This study validates genomic prediction of cross progeny variance using simulations and experimental data in winter bread wheat, showing it depends on trait architecture and requires sufficient progeny numbers.

This study compares seven genomic cross selection criteria to improve genetic gain and diversity in inbred plant breeding by evaluating their impact on progeny performance and genetic variance.

The paper analyzes recombination landscapes in four diverging bread wheat populations using SNP data and LD patterns to show rapid evolution of recombination hotspots.

The paper develops a genomic resource for West African sorghum by characterizing a diverse panel and identifying QTLs for flowering time and plant height.

BWGS is an R package for genomic selection that enables GEBV computation and validation in wheat breeding, showing that training population size and marker selection are key for predictive ability.

This study identifies genetic factors controlling inflorescence morphology in sorghum using nested association mapping, revealing QTL associated with precipitation adaptation.

A phylogeographical study reveals the complex history of wheat genetic diversity through time and space.
