We wrote this book to fill the gap between textbooks of quantitative genetic theory and
software manuals that provide details on analytical methods but little context or perspective …

A restricted range in height and phenology of the elite Seri/Babax recombinant inbred line
(RIL) population makes it ideal for physiological and genetic studies. Previous research has …

Agronomic experiments are often replicated over time and space to evaluate how treatments
perform across a range of environments. The analysis of experiments conducted for more …

Stomata are the site of CO2 exchange for water in a leaf. Variation in stomatal control offers
promise in genetic improvement of transpiration and photosynthetic rates to improve wheat …

Drought is a major abiotic stress that adversely affects wheat production in many regions of
the world. The objective of this study was to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) controlling …

Map** quantitative trait loci through the use of linkage disequilibrium (LD) in populations
of unrelated individuals provides a valuable approach for dissecting the genetic basis of …

Awns were linked to larger grain size, improved seedlot quality, and yield in less favourable
environments but trade-offs in grain number reduced much of their benefit in more …

Objective: To examine effects of a teacher consultation and coaching program delivered by
school and community mental health professionals on change in observed classroom …

Phenoty** maize (Zea mays L.) for drought tolerance is costly and time consuming. Our
objectives were to determine (i) the heritability, genetic variance, and genetic correlations for …

Wheat crops frequently experience a combination of abiotic stresses in the field, but most
quantitative trait loci (QTL) studies have focused on the identification of QTLs for traits under …
