Meiotic homologous recombination generates new combinations of preexisting genetic variation and is a crucial process in plant breeding. Within the last decade, our understanding of plant meiotic recombination and genome diversity has advanced considerably. Innovation in DNA sequencing technology has led to the exploration of high-resolution genetic and epigenetic information in plant genomes, ...

Abstract In this manuscript we discuss the purpose and scope of biometry its interactions, complementation, even overlap with several other areas genetics. We emphasize that is an area genetics enables researchers to analyze, process, interpret biological phenomena from data, usually obtained experimental tests, in improved way guide strategies decision making for optimization resources. also h...

New breeding techniques in plant agriculture exploded upon the scene about two years ago, in 2014. While these innovative plant breeding techniques, soon to be led by CRISPR/Cas9, initially appear to hold tremendous promise for plant breeding, if not a revolution for the industry, the question of how the products of these technologies will be regulated is rapidly becoming a key aspect of the te...
