Modern breeding focuses on genetic analyses and germplasm management and dominates in altering crop genomes, but often neglects non-additive genetic effects that are essential for understanding traits ...

New research led by investigators at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), a founding member of Mass General Brigham (MGB), indicates that socioeconomic and genetic factors likely interact in an ...

In this lecture, the univariate twin model is extended to the bivariate twin model. It is explained how the variance in two traits is decomposed into additive genetic, non-additive genetic, and ...

A research team shows that phenomic prediction, which integrates full multispectral and thermal information rather than ...

By training statistical and machine-learning models to predict expert visual scores, the study demonstrates that phenomics can match or outperform ...
