Abstract: Abstract Premise Variation in seed and seedling traits underlies how plants interact with their environment during establishment, a crucial life history stage. We quantified genetic‐based variation in seed and seedling traits in populations of the… read more here.

Abstract: In vivo haploid induction in high frequency followed by efficient identification of haploids are important components of deriving completely homozygous doubled haploid (DH) lines in maize. Several genetic marker systems were proposed and/or used for… read more here.

Abstract: Many restoration projects use seeds to found new populations, and understanding phenotypic traits associated with seedling establishment in disturbed and invaded communities is important for restoration efforts world‐wide. Focusing on the perennial grass Elymus elymoides,… read more here.
