The paper introduces a genomic prediction model that forecasts yield performance across environments and future climates and identifies adapted maize landraces by integrating genomic offset and gene diversity.

This study integrates multi-omics data to identify genes influencing yield in maize, showing improved resolution and predictive power compared to GWAS.

The paper uses multi-omics data from controlled conditions to predict platform and field traits in maize hybrids, showing higher predictive abilities than GBLUP for platform traits but only slight improvements for field traits.

The paper evaluates maize resistance to European Corn Borer by linking palatability to metabolomic profiles, identifying key metabolites correlated with resistance.

This study analyzes the genetic diversity of 194 maize landraces from South-West France using a 50K SNP array, identifying two genetic groups and a longitudinal gradient shaped by genetic drift and restricted gene flow.

The paper develops a DNA bulk SNP genotyping method for landraces and applies it to maize, showing accurate allelic frequency estimation and low ascertainment bias.

The paper analyzes diversity patterns and selective sweeps in a Southeast European maize panel combined with two West European panels to identify genomic regions under selection for adaptation to SEE conditions.

This study identifies environment-dependent SNP-protein co-expression and trait associations in maize under drought conditions, revealing pleiotropic loci and candidate genes for drought tolerance.

The paper uses SNP genotyping of DNA pools to identify landraces and genomic regions with untapped genetic diversity for maize breeding.

The paper develops a high-throughput method to genotype InDels in maize using an Affymetrix Axiom array, achieving high reliability and reproducibility.

The paper compares genotyping-by-sequencing and microarrays for detecting QTLs, showing they complement each other by tagging different haplotypes and improving detection power and localization.
