Factors controlling accuracy of genomic selection in oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) : W528 [PDF]
Wong and Bernardo (2008) showed in a simulation study that genomic selection could increase the rate of genetic gain in oil palm (Elaeis guineensis). In order to estimate the accuracy of genomic selection in a real breeding program, we applied a cross ...

Abstract Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), a foundation of global food security, faces persistent threats from stripe rust caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst). The pathogen thrives in cool and humid environments and regularly causes epidemics that lead to severe yield losses.

Stage-wise selection of tropical wheat populations using univariate and multivariate BLUP models
Plant breeding programs often involve several segregating populations that must be selected for multiple traits. This study aimed to identify tropical wheat populations combining earliness and high grain yield (GY) using univariate and multivariate best ...

Mean squared errors of small area estimators under a unit-level multivariate model [PDF]
This work deals with estimating the vector of means of characteristics of small areas. In this context, a unit level multivariate model with correlated sampling errors is considered.

Abstract The southern United States is responsible for 80% of the country's production of rice, approximately half of which is exported. Understanding genotypic and environmental factors impacting the historical performance of rice (Oryza sativa L.) is important for directing research efforts to optimize production of this globally important crop.

Modeling spatial trends and selecting tropical wheat genotypes in multi-environment trials
In many cases, traditional analysis of breeding trials based on analysis of variance (ANOVA) do not allow a suitable genetic evaluation. Alternatively, mixed model-based approaches create the possibility of dealing with unbalanced data and modeling ...

Genome-Wide association study for resistance to aerial propagation of leaf scald in sugarcane(Saccharum spp) [PDF]
Leaf scald (LS) is a major sugarcane disease, resulting in cane loss and sugar yield decrease when growing susceptible cultivars. This disease is caused by a xylem invading bacterium, Xanthomonas albilineans (Xa), and is mainly transmitted by aerial ...

Abstract Rice (Oryza sativa) is an important staple food, feeding more than half of the global population. A feasible improvement of rice yield is necessary to meet the ever–growing food demands. Genomic selection (GS), as an advanced breeding technique, enables the prediction of phenotypes solely based on genotypic data using a constructed genomic ...

Abstract Meiotic recombination creates new allelic combinations, but it also disrupts favorable parental haplotypes. Our objective was to assess if optimum recombination rates exist in elite maize (Zea mays L.) populations undergoing simulated short‐term and long‐term recurrent selection.

ODABIR I STUPNJEVANJE NAZIMICA KORISTEĆI BLUP
Selekcija nazimica u Republici Hrvatskoj do nedavno se provodila prema selekcijskim ekonomskim indeksima Međutim koeficijenti upotrebljavanih indeksa nisu bili procijenjeni na temelju podataka domaće populacije, već su preuzeti iz literature. U svinjogojstvu Hrvatske prelazi se na odabir nazimica temeljem procjene uzgojne vrijednosti pomoću BLUP-a. Pri
