The first paradigm of plant breeding involves direct selection-based phenotypic observation,
followed by predictive breeding using statistical models for quantitative traits constructed …

Recently, Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a revolutionary field, providing a great
opportunity in sha** modern crop breeding, and is extensively used indoors for plant …

Continued increases in genetic gain demonstrate the success of established public and
private plant breeding programs. Nevertheless, in the last two decades, a growing body of …

Breeding climate-resilient crops with improved levels of abiotic and biotic stress resistance
as a response to climate change presents both opportunities and challenges. Applying the …

Warming and drought are reducing global crop production with a potential to substantially
worsen global malnutrition. As with the green revolution in the last century, plant genetics …

Chickpea is one of the most important pulse crops worldwide, being an excellent source of
protein. It is grown under rain-fed conditions averaging yields of 1 t/ha, far from its potential …

Studying the genetics of adaptation to new environments in ecologically and industrially
important tree species is currently a major research line in the fields of plant science and …

Identifying mechanisms and pathways involved in gene–environment interplay and
phenotypic plasticity is a long-standing challenge. It is highly desirable to establish an …

Enviromics refers to the characterization of micro-and macroenvironments based on large-
scale environmental datasets. By providing genotypic recommendations with predictive …

Twelve years have passed since the early outlooks of applying genomic selection (GS) to
forest tree breeding, initially based on deterministic simulations, soon followed by empirical …
