Heterosis was first described by Charles Darwin (Darwin1876) and independently rediscovered by Shull (1908) andEast(1908).
Term coined by “SHULL” in (1952) as “ stimulation ofheterozygosity”.
After maize hybrid was first utilized in field on a largescale in USA in 1930s.
1st Hayes and Jones (1916) reported hybrid vigor forcucumber mainly contributed to notable increasing of fruitsize and number.
F1 hybrid of brinjal was utilized before 1925 in Japan(Kakizaki , 1931)

Increased allelic diversity creates a more robust heterotic response.

“Epigenetics” refers toheritable (through mitosis ormeiosis) alterations in geneexpression that areindependent of DNA sequence:different epigeneticallyregulated forms of a gene areknown as epialleles.
Chromatin status, mediatedthrough epigeneticmodification, can potentiallyaffect gene expression in cis (atthe gene itself) or in trans (byregulating loci indirectly).

Conversion of cytosine to 5 methyl cytosine.Could generate epigenetic variation/ Epialleles and creation
of hybrid vigour.
DNA methylation does not change the DNA sequence and itsfunction, but does change its expression level, referred asan epigenetic change.
Associated with gene silencing, and genes with abundant 5-methylcytosine in their promoter region are usuallytranscriptionally silent. (Jones and Takai, 2001; Dong etal,2006)
It can be suggested that inbreeding depression partly or primarily resultsfrom lower levels or fewer genes expressed simply due to homozygosityof methylated DNA in regulating factors.
Heterosis is from higher levels or larger number of genes expressedsimply due to heterozygous conditions between methylated and non-methylated DNA in the F1 hybrid.

Mainly used to identify genes or genomic regions that contributeheterosis for trait of interest, that may be used in MAS toincrease performance of hybrids.
Provide answer to certain questions.
Which genes are involved and their nature?
Epistatic properties of these genes?
Their interaction with environment?
How best to exploit heterosis fully?
Number of genes or genomic regions involved and their distribution?

The ‘‘reproductive’’ curve (QTL for increasing reproductive traits) has a peak in the ODO domain,indicatingthat many of the QTL fall within this mode of inheritance
In contrast, most of the QTL for the nonreproductive group and for the decreasing reproductive phenotypes resided in the recessive–additive domain.
Heterosis is partitioned, in part, into small genomic regions that convey advantage in the heterozygous state (ODO QTL), and, together, they contribute to the genome-wide effect

te Heterosis is result of interacting genomes, resulting in
complex changes at the genetic, epigenetic, biochemical and
regulatory network levels
Epigenetic regulation of circadian-mediated changes in
chlorophyll biosynthesis and starch metabolism offers one
of the direct links to growth vigor in plant hybrids
Availability of novel genetic and genomic tools, that allow
for the integrated study of the complex interactions
between genome organization and expression might
contribute to a better understanding of heterosis.
