Article Synopsis
- - Modern plant breeding combines advanced technologies like next-generation sequencing and phenomics to select the best parent plants, aiming to produce superior cultivars that farmers can easily adopt.
- - A robust breeding database is essential for tracking various breeding materials, recording experimental and phenotypic data, storing genotypic information, and supporting analytical algorithms for breeding decisions.
- - The Breedbase system, an open-source web application initially developed for cassava, has evolved to support multiple crops, offering a comprehensive platform for managing breeding data and enhancing decision-making processes in a digital environment.
Background: Aluminum (Al) toxicity is an important limitation to food security in tropical and subtropical regions. High Al saturation on acid soils limits root development, reducing water and nutrient uptake. In addition to naturally occurring acid soils, agricultural practices may decrease soil pH, leading to yield losses due to Al toxicity.
