Combining pedigree and genomic information to improve prediction quality : an example in sorghum by Velazco, Julio Gabriel, Malosetti, Marcos, Hunt, Colleen H., Mace, Emma S., Jordan, David R., Van Eeuwijk, Fred A.

“…The benefits of including pedigree information in the genomic model were more relevant for traits with lower heritability, such as grain yield and stay-green. Our results suggest that the combination of pedigree and genomic relatedness can be used to optimize predictions of complex traits in crops when the additive variation is not fully explained by markers.…”

Reprogramming of Retrotransposon Activity during Speciation of the Genus Citrus. by Borredá, Carles, Pérez-Román, Estela, Ibanez, Victoria, Terol, Javier, Talón, Manuel

“…Based on these observations, we propose that Citrus retrotransposons may respond to stressful conditions driving speciation as a part of the genetic response involved in adaptation. This proposal implies that the evolving conditions of each species interact with the internal regulatory mechanisms of the genome controlling the proliferation of mobile elements.…”
