Genetic dissection of seed production traits and identification of a major-effect seed retention QTL in hybrid Leymus (Triticeae) wildryes
Many native grasses display seed shattering and other seed production problems. Basin wildrye [Leymus cinereus (Scribn. & Merr.) Á. Löve] and creeping wildrye [L. triticoides (Buckley) Pilg.] are perennial Triticeae grasses native to western North America. In this study, variation in the number of florets per inflorescence, percent seed set, seed mass, seed shattering, and seed dormancy was ...

Molecular genetic linkage map for allotetraploid colonial bentgrass
Interspecific hybridization is a widely used approach to improve crop species. We are pursuing the possibility of using interspecific hybridization between the turfgrass species colonial bentgrass (Agrostis capillaris L.) and creeping bentgrass (A. stolonifera L.) for the improvement of resistance to the fungal disease dollar spot (Sclerotinia homoeocarpa F.T. Bennett) in creeping bentgrass. From ...

5 features to look for when selecting drone RGB sensors for phenotyping
Selecting a Drone to Meet Your phenotyping Needs: As drones have become better, less expensive, and easier to use, more researchers have been incorporating them into their trial assessment programs. The new generation of drones are bringing more capacity to assess new and previously inaccessible traits such as wheat head count, flower/fruit counting and classification, and phenological stage ...
