Accurately predicting complex agronomic traits remains a major bottleneck in crop breeding. This study demonstrates how ...

Large amounts of data ("big data") offer enormous potential for improving the accuracy of genome-wide predictions in plant breeding. Encouraged by successful results with wheat hybrids, researchers at ...

Researchers are trying to understand why some wild species do better than others over time, as the environment changes.

A whole-genome sequencing approach shows early promise over current commercial methods for identifying more patients likely ...
