TL;DR: Loblolly pine seedlings from 12 full-sib families obtained from a six-parent half diallel mating design were challenged in a greenhouse using two basidiospore inocula of the fusiform rust fungus at extremely high spore density, and a genetic model for interaction of two pairs of genes was proposed.

A multiplicative-epistatic model for analyzing interspecific differences in outcrossing species

Biometrics, 55(2), 355–365.

By: R. Wu* & B. Li n

MeSH headings : Alleles; Animals; Biological Evolution; Biometry; Crosses, Genetic; Epistasis, Genetic; Female; Genotype; Male; Models, Genetic; Plants / genetics; Species Specificity
TL;DR: A method is developed to provide estimates for allele frequencies and additive and dominant effects at individual loci in each of the two parental populations, the genotypic values of newly formed heterozygotes through species combination each with one allele from a parental population and the second from the other parental population.

By: S. Enebak*, B. Bucciarelli*, M. Ostry* & B. Li n

TL;DR: When comparing stem response to phloroglucinol-HCl with respect to the tissue type on the same stem (succulent versus woody), the inoculation of older woody tissue resulted in a more defined host response and thus were better in separating the two aspen genotypes. (via Semantic Scholar)

By: B. Li*, S. Mckeand* & H. Allen*

TL;DR: Heritability estimates were generally high for shoot characteristics except for mean stem-unit length, and elongation of cyclic growth, number of growth cycles, and number of stem units showed stronger correlations with field performance than did seedling height. (via Semantic Scholar)
