Genetic variation and population structure of the rice accessions maintained in the AfricaRice genebank using DArTseq Open
Utilizing the full potential of rice collections mainly depends on an in‐depth exploration and understanding of the vast diversity in its germplasm. The AfricaRice genebank holds the largest collection of rice germplasm originating from th…

Manifold and spatiotemporal learning on multispectral unoccupied aerial system imagery for phenotype prediction Open
Timeseries data captured by unoccupied aircraft systems (UASs) are increasingly used for agricultural applications requiring accurate prediction of plant phenotypes from remotely sensed imagery. However, prediction models often fail to gen…

Convergent evolution of plant prickles by repeated gene co-option over deep time Open
An enduring question in evolutionary biology concerns the degree to which episodes of convergent trait evolution depend on the same genetic programs, particularly over long timescales. In this work, we genetically dissected repeated origin…

High-resolution Spectral Information Enables Phenotyping of Leaf Epicuticular Wax in Wheat Open
Background: Epicuticular wax (EW) is the first line of defense in plants for protection against biotic and abiotic factors in the environment. In wheat, EW is associated with resilience to heat and drought stress, however, the current limi…

Enhancing the searchability, breeding utility, and efficient management of germplasm accessions in the USDA−ARS rice collection Open
Genebanks conserve worldwide crop genetic diversity in systematically assembled and maintained ex situ collections for use by plant breeders and geneticists to improve the productivity, value, and sustainability of agriculture. Challenges …
View article: Association Analysis of Three Diverse Rice ( <i>Oryza sativa</i> L.) Germplasm Collections for Loci Regulating Grain Quality Traits
Association Analysis of Three Diverse Rice ( <i>Oryza sativa</i> L.) Germplasm Collections for Loci Regulating Grain Quality Traits Open
Rice ( Oryza sativa L.) end‐use cooking quality is vital for producers and billions of consumers worldwide. Grain quality is a complex trait with interacting genetic and environmental factors. Deciphering the complex genetic architecture a…
