Abstract: Heterosis is the improved performance of hybrids compared with their parental components and is widely exploited in agriculture. According to quantitative genetic theory, genetic distance between parents at heterotic quantitative trait loci is required for heterosis, but how heterosis varies with genetic distance has remained elusive, despite intensive research on the topic. Experimental studies have often found a positive association between heterosis and genetic distance that, however, varied in strength. Most importantly, it has remained unclear whether heterosis increases continuously with genetic distance or whether there is an optimum genetic distance after which heterosis declines again. Here, we revisit the relationship between heterosis and genetic distance and provide perspectives on how to maximize heterosis and hybrid performance in breeding, as well as the consequences for the design of heterotic groups and the utilization of more exotic material and genetic resources.
