Adjusting breeding phenology to climate fluctuations can be problematic for migratory birds as they have to account for local environmental conditions on the breeding grounds while migrating from ...

The initiative will be executed through a national genomic selection breeding consortium of public and private sector breeding organizations, led by the Global Institute for Food Security (GIFS) at ...

Proportion of phenotypic variation associated with individual (i.e., advanced selection, cultivar, parent, progenitor, or unselected offspring), year, year × ...

Accurately predicting complex agronomic traits remains a major bottleneck in crop breeding. This study demonstrates how optimized genomic prediction models can reliably forecast flowering time, yield ...

Plant breeders have always faced a brutal trade-off: the traits that matter most for food security, like drought tolerance or ...

The agricultural industry is grappling with escalating challenges caused by increasing global temperatures and heat stress induced by climate change. However, an unexpected solution has emerged: cow ...

Researchers spotlight how selecting cattle for lower methane emissions could deliver long-term gains in efficiency and ...

Artificial intelligence is quietly reshaping how crops are bred, and the biggest gains may come not in corn or wheat but in the neglected staples that feed millions on the margins. By pairing ...
