• GrainGenes: a data-rich repository for small grains genetics and genomics

  Database · 2022 · 92 citations

  As one of the US Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service flagship databases, GrainGenes (https://wheat.pw.usda.gov) serves the data and community needs of globally distributed small grains researchers for the genetic improvement of the Triticeae family and Avena species that include wheat, barley, rye and oat. GrainGenes accomplishes its mission by continually enriching its cross-linked data content following the findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable principles, enhanc…

• Carotenoid‐carbohydrate crosstalk: evidence for genetic and physiological interactions in storage tissues across crop species

  New Phytologist · 2024-10-14 · 14 citations

  reviewOpen accessSenior author

  Carotenoids play essential roles in photosynthesis, photoprotection, and human health. Efforts to increase carotenoid content in several staple crops have been successful through both conventional selection and genetic engineering methods. Interestingly, in some cases, altering carotenoid content has had unexpected effects on other aspects of plant metabolism, impacting traits like sugar content, dry matter percentage, fatty acid content, stress tolerance, and phytohormone concentrations. Studie…

• A pangenome and pantranscriptome of hexaploid oat

  Nature · 2025-10-29 · 7 citations

  articleOpen access

  Abstract Oat grain is a traditional human food that is rich in dietary fibre and contributes to improved human health 1,2 . Interest in the crop has surged in recent years owing to its use as the basis for plant-based milk analogues 3 . Oat is an allohexaploid with a large, repeat-rich genome that was shaped by subgenome exchanges over evolutionary timescales 4 . In contrast to many other cereal species, genomic research in oat is still at an early stage, and surveys of structural genome diversi…

• Evaluation of six sugar kelp crosses selected for high yield at three Northeastern US farms

  Aquaculture · 2025-01-22 · 5 citations

  articleOpen access

  Sugar kelp ( Saccharina latissima ), a brown macroalga, is a vital crop in the burgeoning seaweed aquaculture industry. As seaweed farms expand, the traditional practice of collecting wild sporophytes will be unsustainable. Developing new kelp cultivars that suit multiple farm conditions is necessary. To address this challenge, our breeding project selected six sugar kelp crosses to be grown in New Castle, New Hampshire; Duxbury, Massachusetts; and Moriches, New York, in the 2022–2023 growing se…

• Genomic prediction for targeted populations of environments in oat (Avena sativa)

  Crop and Pasture Science · 2024-04-29 · 5 citations

  articleOpen access

  Context Long-term multi-environment trials (METs) could improve genomic prediction models for plant breeding programs by better representing the target population of environments (TPE). However, METs are generally highly unbalanced because genotypes are routinely dropped from trials after a few years. Furthermore, in the presence of genotype × environment interaction (GEI), selection of the environments to include in a prediction set becomes critical to represent specific TPEs. Aims The goals of…
