DOI: 10.1007/s10709-018-0026-y
Abstract: Habitat fragmentation and small population sizes can lead to inbreeding and loss of genetic variation, which can potentially cause inbreeding depression and decrease the ability of populations to adapt to altered environmental conditions. One solution… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11103-021-01228-7
Abstract: KEY MESSAGE Flag leaf heterosis of inter-subspecific hybrid rice is suggested to be related to leaf area, gene expression pattern and allele-specific expression, putatively related to DNA methylation differences between the hybrid and its parents.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.aquaculture.2021.737489
Abstract: Abstract Hybridization is a powerful tool for improving productivity and profitability in aquaculture. To determine the performance characteristics of Patinopecten scallop hybrids, complete diallel hybridizations were carried out between Yesso scallops (P. yessoensis) and Weathervane… read more here.
