Ectopic expression of ARGOS8 mediates silk elongation rate response to water deficit in maize (Zea mays L.)

This study shows that ectopic ARGOS8 expression in maize improves silk elongation under water deficit, increasing silk emergence and reproductive performance.

Extending the breeder's equation to take aim at the Target Population of Environments

The paper discusses the importance of the MET-TPE relationship in genomic prediction for improving breeding outcomes in target populations of environments.

Modelling selection response in plant breeding programs using crop models as mechanistic gene-to-phenotype (CGM-G2P) multi-trait link functions

The paper explores using crop models as gene-to-phenotype link functions to optimize selection in plant breeding programs by integrating quantitative genetic theory and trait modeling.

Leveraging biological insight and environmental variation to improve phenotypic prediction: Integrating crop growth models (CGM) with whole genome prediction (WGP)

This paper integrates crop growth models with whole genome prediction to improve phenotypic prediction by accounting for genotype-by-environment-by-management interactions in maize breeding.
