This research focuses on understanding how traits are inherited in hybrids of crop plants, aiming to predict hybrid vigor. By combining evolutionary principles with ecological models, the project seeks to develop predictive tools for breeders using maize and sorghum as case studies.
How organismal traits are inherited in offspring is a long-standing, open question.
Hybrids between unrelated individuals of plants or animals often show greater vigour, disease resistance, and fertility.
The genetic mechanisms behind the deviation of hybrids from the parental phenotype have been widely studied.
However, hybrid vigour remains difficult to predict qualitatively and quantitatively. A key bottleneck is that it remains difficult to explain why different traits are inherited differen…
