Remote sensing for estimating genetic parameters of biomass accumulation and modeling stability of growth curves in alfalfa

This study uses multi-spectral imaging to estimate genetic parameters of biomass accumulation and model growth curve stability in alfalfa across different irrigation treatments and cultivars.

Spatio-temporal modeling of high-throughput multi-spectral aerial images improves agronomic trait genomic prediction in hybrid maize

The paper improves genomic prediction of agronomic traits in maize by integrating spatio-temporal modeling of multi-spectral aerial images with genetic data.

A population based expression atlas provides insights into disease resistance and other physiological traits in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz)

The paper presents a population-based transcriptomics atlas of cassava, identifying differentially expressed genes and gene modules related to disease resistance and physiological traits.

Making WAVES in Breedbase: An Integrated Spectral Data Storage and Analysis Pipeline for Plant Breeding Programs

The paper develops an open-source R package, waves, for spectral data analysis in plant breeding and integrates it into the Breedbase database to enhance spectral data handling and analysis.
