Detecting gene flow from als-resistant hybrid and inbred rice to weedy rice using single plant pollen donors

TL;DR: The outcrossing rate from the herbicide-resistant red rice and rice cultivars carrying three different ALS (acetolactate synthase) alleles using a single plant pollen donor approach was quantified to reduce the risk of gene flow of herbicide resistance from rice to weedy rice.

Domestication and improvement of tropical crops for multi-functional farming systems

TL;DR: In this paper, a participatory approach to tree domestication is used to ensure that farmers' needs are met and new perennial crops from traditionally important indigenous trees are selected on the basis of 'ideotypes' derived from quantitative data of the tree-to-tree variation in many commercially important traits.
