Enhanced Bayesian model for multienvironmental selection of winter hybrids maize: assessing grain yield using 'ProbBreed'.
Plant Methods
January 2025
Faculty of Agriculture, Agriculture and Forestry University, Bharatpur, 13712, Nepal.
Background: Crossover interactions stemming from phenotypic plasticity complicate selection decisions when evaluating hybrid maize with superior grain yield and consistent performance. Consequently, a two-year, region-wide investigation of 45 hybrids maize across Nepal was performed with the aim of disclosing both site and wide adapted hybrids. Utilizing an innovative "ProbBreed" package, based on Bayesian probability analysis of randomized complete block designs with three replicated trials at each station, this study substantively streamlines hybrids maize selection.

Background: Urbanization is rapidly altering our ecosystem. While most wild species refrain from entering urban habitats, some flourish in cities and adapt to the new opportunities these offer. Urban individuals of various species have been shown to differ in physiology, morphology, and behavior compared to their rural counterparts.

Google Health, 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA, 94043, USA.
Purpose: Many breast centers are unable to provide immediate results at the time of screening mammography which results in delayed patient care. Implementing artificial intelligence (AI) could identify patients who may have breast cancer and accelerate the time to diagnostic imaging and biopsy diagnosis.
Methods: In this prospective randomized, unblinded, controlled implementation study we enrolled 1000 screening participants between March 2021 and May 2022.
Non-additive dosage-dependent effects of TaGS3 gene editing on grain size and weight in wheat.
Theor Appl Genet
January 2025
Wheat Genetics Resource Center, Kansas State University, Manhattan, KS, USA.
Loss-of-function mutations induced by CRISPR-Cas9 in the TaGS3 gene homoeologs show non-additive dosage-dependent effects on grain size and weight and have potential utility for increasing grain yield in wheat. The grain size in cereals is one of the component traits contributing to yield. Previous studies showed that loss-of-function (LOF) mutations in GS3, encoding Gγ subunit of the multimeric G protein complex, increase grain size and weight in rice.

Research on silicon (Si) biogeochemistry and its beneficial effects for plants has received significant attention over several decades, but the reasons for the emergence of high-Si plants remain unclear. Here, we combine experimentation, field studies and analysis of existing databases to test the role of temperature on the expression and emergence of silicification in terrestrial plants. We first show that Si is beneficial for rice under high temperature (40 °C), but harmful under low temperature (0 °C), whilst a 2 °C increase results in a 37% increase in leaf Si concentrations.
