2020 journal article

Identification and editing of a hybrid lethality gene expands the range of interspecific hybridization potential in Nicotiana

THEORETICAL AND APPLIED GENETICS, 133(10), 2915–2925.

By: J. Ma n, W. Hancock n, J. Nifong n, S. Kernodle n & R. Lewis n

MeSH headings : CRISPR-Cas Systems; Crosses, Genetic; DNA Transposable Elements; Gene Editing; Genes, Lethal; Genes, Plant; Hybridization, Genetic; Tobacco / genetics
TL;DR: Gene editing was used to verify that Nt6549g30 is the gene at the N. tabacum Hybrid Lethality 1 (NtHL1) locus controlling the hybrid lethality reaction in crosses with N. africana and demonstrate the possibility of expanding the gene pool for a crop species through gene editing.

2019 journal article

Introgression Analysis and Morphological Characterization of an Arachis hypogaea x A. diogoi Interspecific Hybrid Derived Population

CROP SCIENCE, 59(2), 640–649.

By: W. Hancock n, S. Tallury*, T. Isleib n, Y. Chu*, P. Ozias-Akins* & H. Stalker n

TL;DR: This introgression population demonstrates the potential of using wild diploid Arachis species for peanut improvement and has great potential for use in cultivated peanut breeding programs. (via Semantic Scholar)

2017 journal article

Heterosis, transmission genetics, and selection for increased growth rate in a N. tabacum x synthetic tobacco cross

MOLECULAR BREEDING, 37(4).

By: W. Hancock n & R. Lewis n

author keywords: Nicotiana; Tobacco; Synthetic amphidiploid; Yield; Growth rate; Genetic variability
TL;DR: Crosses between N. tabacum and synthetic tobaccos may provide superior routes for genome-wide introgression from diploid relatives and allow increased potential to capitalize on heterotic effects in tobacco, suggesting populations derived from N.tabacum × synthetic tobacco crosses may be more efficient for introgressing germplasm from diPloid relatives.

2015 journal article

Identification of maternal haploids of Nicotiana tabacum aided by transgenic expression of green fluorescent protein: evidence for chromosome elimination in the N-tabacum x N-africana interspecific cross

MOLECULAR BREEDING, 35(9).

By: W. Hancock n, V. Kuraparthy n, S. Kernodle n & R. Lewis n

author keywords: Nicotiana; Haploids; Hybrid lethality; Tobacco; Chromosome elimination; Parthenogenesis
TL;DR: The results present evidence of genetic instability in progeny from the N. africana cross and suggest that, in contrast to previous belief, chromosome elimination may play at least a partial role in the generation of haploids from this cross. (via Semantic Scholar)
