The present invention relates to breeding methods to enhance the germplasm of a plant. The methods describe the identification and accumulation of preferred haplotype genomic regions in the germplasm of breeding populations of maize () and soybean (). The invention also relates to maize and soybean plants comprising preferred haplotypes.

Compositions and methods of plant breeding using high density marker information

The present invention provides breeding methods and compositions to enhance the germplasm of a plant. The methods describe the identification and accumulation of transgenes and favorable haplotype genomic regions in the germplasm of a breeding population of crop plants.

Methods and compositions to enhance plant breeding

The invention provides seed and plants of pepper line 'Hot Pops Yellow'. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of pepper line 'Hot Pops Yellow', and to methods for producing a pepper plant produced by crossing such plants with themselves or with another pepper plant, such as a plant of another genotype. The invention further relates to seeds and plants produced by such crossing. The invention further relates to parts of such plants, including the fruit and gametes of such plants.

The invention provides seed and plants of pepper line 'Hot Pops Purple'. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of pepper line 'Hot Pops Purple', and to methods for producing a pepper plant produced by crossing such plants with themselves or with another pepper plant, such as a plant of another genotype. The invention further relates to seeds and plants produced by such crossing. The invention further relates to parts of such plants, including the fruit and gametes of such plants.

Polymorphic soybean DNA loci useful for genotyping between at least two varieties of soybean. Sequences of the loci are useful for providing the basis for designing primers and probe oligonucleotides for detecting polymorphisms in soybean DNA. Polymorphisms are useful for genotyping applications in soybean. The polymorphic markers are useful to establish marker/trait associations, e.g. in linkage disequilibrium mapping and association studies, positional cloning and transgenic applications, marker-aided breeding and marker-assisted selection, hybrid prediction and identity by descent studies. The polymorphic markers are also useful in mapping libraries of DNA clones, e.g. for soybean QTLs and genes linked to polymorphisms.

Soybean polymorphisms and methods of genotyping

The present invention relates to new, distinct and stableplants that have an ornamental phenotype and produce fruit that is non-pungent.

Non-pungent ornamental peppers

The present invention relates to new, distinct and stable non-pungent ornamental pepper cultivars. The ornamental pepper cultivars of the present invention contain a gene complex which confers non-pungency and ornamental phenotypes to the pepper plant.
