(2013-08-09)Cotton has been a world-wide economic staple in textiles and oil production. There has been a concerted effort for cotton improvement to increase yield and quality to compete with non-natural man-made fibers. Unfortunately, ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)The evaluation of environmental and genotypic effects on fruit physical and chemical characteristics enables assessment of the feasibility of selecting diploid and/or triploid cultivars for either specific or more diverse ...
-
(2012-07-16)Wheat grain quality has a complex genetic architecture heavily influenced by the growing environment. Consistency in wheat quality not only affects the efficiency of milling and baking but also the quality of end-use ...
-
(2018-11-29)Quantitative trait loci (QTL) study opens the door to marker-assisted selection by dissecting loci into individual component loci, their genetic effects and interactions. The objectives of this study were to find stable ...
-
(2021-06-04)Being a staple food for half of the world population, rice plays a crucial role in terms of food security, economic impact, and nutrition. Superior rice grain quality is considered as one of the key characteristics selected ...
-
(2012-07-16)Infertility in dairy cattle remains a major economic loss to dairy producers. Identifying dairy cattle with superior genetic potential for improved fertility would increase dairy farm profitability. Dairy heifers were ...
-
(2010-10-12)The objectives of this study were to identify signatures of selection in Bos taurus beef and dairy cattle populations and to annotate regions of selection with gene, function and QTL information. Differences in minor allele ...
-
(2015-12-10)Rhodococcus equi causes pneumonia and extrapulmonary disorders in foals and other immunocompromised animals including people. Although exposure to virulent R. equi is widespread in the environment of foals, only a small ...
-
(2016-04-07)Global climate experiments project an average increase of ambient temperatures of 0.2°C per decade. Such prediction emphasizes the importance of crop varieties that have high heat tolerance. Wheat is significantly affected ...
-
(2020-05-28)Pecan (Carya illinoinensis) is a hickory tree grown for its edible seed (nut) as well as its ornamental and lumber qualities. Native to and primarily produced in Mexico and the United States, a majority of production is ...

(2016-12-07)Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is an economically important vegetable crop worldwide and like many other crops, its productivity is severely impacted by abiotic stresses. Establishment of an efficient root system is a ...
-
(2008-05-16)In any production setting, cattle disposition (temperament) has a great impact on handling and performance. Thus, behavior can be economically important, yielding the rationale for study. Wegenhoft (2005) previously ...
-
(2019-09-26)Much of wildlife research is plagued by outdated molecular methods and bison studies are no exception. The aim of this work is to push the boundaries of population genetics in bison and to update and build upon previously ...
-
(2018-05-08)High night temperature (HNT) has strong negative effects on rice plant growth and development. HNT also impacts many physiological characteristics of rice which affect the grain quality of rice grown around the world. One ...
