I am interested in discussing with people about the molecular basis of heterosis. I am surveying different databases in order to write a lecture for the Nordic post-graduate course in plant breeding on the subject: molecular and physiological basis of heterosis. I find a number of interesting articles on the interaction of chloroplast and mitochondrial genes in heterosis. Also there are good articles on the hormonal influence on heterosis in plants. So if anyone would like to advise me on new articles covering the molecular basis of heterosis I would be much obliged. Heterosis on the enzyme level? RFLP analysis of heterosis? Complementation? Enzyme kinetics? etc. Kind Regards, Peter MA Tigerstedt, Helsinki University, Dept of Plant Breeding.
