Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are effectively applied to detect the marker trait
associations (MTAs) using whole genome-wide variants for complex quantitative traits in …

This review examines the application, limitations, and potential alternatives to the Hagberg–
Perten falling number (FN) method used in the global wheat industry for detecting the risk of …

In wheat, a meta-analysis was performed using previously identified QTLs associated with
drought stress (DS), heat stress (HS), salinity stress (SS), water-logging stress (WS), pre …

Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) has a complex genome with variable ploidy and frequent
aneuploidy, which hampers the understanding of phenotype and genotype relations …

Kernel size‐related traits are the most direct traits correlating with grain yield. The genetic
basis of three kernel traits of maize, kernel length (KL), kernel width (KW) and kernel …

Key message We identified marker-trait associations for key faba bean agronomic traits and
genomic signatures of selection within a global germplasm collection. Abstract Faba bean …

Late maturity α-amylase (LMA) and pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) are both recognized as
environmentally induced grain quality defects resulting from abnormally high levels of α …

Key message Using phenotypic data of four biparental spring wheat populations evaluated
at multiple environments under two management systems, we discovered 152 QTL and 22 …

Marker-assisted selection (MAS) is a selection method for improving agriculturally essential
traits in wheat. MAS allows efficient screening of difficult-to-phenotype traits, introgression of …

A major challenge of plant biology is to unravel the genetic basis of complex traits. We took
advantage of recent technical advances in high‐throughput phenotyping in conjunction with …
