Disaggregating polyploidy, parental genome dosage and hybridity contributions to heterosis in arabidopsis thaliana
Fort, Antoine; Ryder, Peter; McKeown, Peter C.; Wijnen, Cris; Aarts, Mark G.; Sulpice, Ronan; Spillane, Charles (Wiley-Blackwell, 2015-09-23)Heterosis is the phenomenon whereby hybrid offspring of genetically divergent parents display superior characteristics compared with their parents. Although hybridity and polyploidy can influence heterosis in hybrid plants, ... -
Hybridity has a greater effect than paternal genome dosage on heterosis in sugar beet (beta vulgaris)
Hallahan, Brendan F.; Fernandez-Tendero, Eva; Fort, Antoine; Ryder, Peter; Dupouy, Gilles; Deletre, Marc; Curley, Edna; Brychkova, Galina; Schulz, Britta; Spillane, Charles (Springer Nature, 2018-06-15)Background: The phenomenon of heterosis is critical to plant breeding and agricultural productivity. Heterosis occurs when F1 hybrid offspring display quantitative improvements in traits to levels that do not occur in the ...
