Genomic Prediction and Selection for Fruit Traits in Winter Squash

Improving fruit quality is an important but challenging breeding goal in winter squash.Squash breeding in general is resource-intensive, especially in terms of space, and the biology of squash makes it difficult to practice selection on both parents.These restrictions translate to smaller breeding populations and limited use of greenhouse generatio

Thermal, trapped and chromo-natural inflation in light of the swampland criteria and the trans-Planckian censorship conjecture

Abstract We consider thermal, trapped and chromo-natural inflation in light of the swampland criteria and the Trans-Planckian Censorship Conjecture (TCC).Since thermal inflation occurs at energies Goalie - Goalie Mask - Senior low compared to those of Grand Unification, it is consistent with the TCC, and it is also consistent with the refined swamp
