Sorghum bicolor is a drought tolerant C4 grass used for the production of grain, forage, sugar,
and lignocellulosic biomass and a genetic model for C4 grasses due to its relatively small …

Dissecting the genetic basis of complex traits is aided by frequent and nondestructive
measurements. Advances in range imaging technologies enable the rapid acquisition of three-…

The efficiency with which a plant intercepts solar radiation is determined primarily by its
architecture. Understanding the genetic regulation of plant architecture and how changes in …

Sorghum is an important C4 grass crop grown for grain, forage, sugar, and bioenergy production.
While tall, late flowering landraces are commonly grown in Africa, short early flowering …

Recent advances in variant calling made available in the Genome Analysis Toolkit (GATK)
enable the use of validated single-nucleotide polymorphisms and indels to improve variant …

ABSTRACTThe timing of crop development has significant impacts on management decisions
and subsequent yield formation. A large intercontinental dataset recording the timing of …

Highlights We describe and demonstrate a multidimensional framework to integrate
environmental and genomic predictors to enable crop improvement for a circular bioeconomy. A …

Bioenergy sorghum is targeted for production in water-limited annual cropland therefore
traits that improve plant water capture, water use efficiency, and resilience to water deficit are …

Europe imports large amounts of soybean that are predominantly used for livestock feed,
mainly sourced from Brazil, USA and Argentina. In addition, the demand for GM-free soybean …

Recombinant inbred populations of many plant species exhibit more heterozygosity than
expected under the Mendelian model of segregation. This segregation distortion causes the …
