THE BRAZILIAN PEAR BREEDING PROGRAM

Acta Horticulturae, 2011
Pear production in Brazil reached 17,391 tons in 2008, enough to provide for a mere 20% of the local market. The lack of adapted cultivars is a major obstacle to self-sustainable pear production in the country. In 2006, a novel nationwide pear breeding program was initiated, encompassing several research institutions and aiming to develop cultivars ...

Genomic Selection in Animal Breeding Programs

2013
Genomic selection can have a major impact on animal breeding programs, especially where traits that are important in the breeding objective are hard to select for otherwise. Genomic selection provides more accurate estimates for breeding value earlier in the life of breeding animals, giving more selection accuracy and allowing lower generation ...

The French breeding program

2016
To produce seedless varieties, we focused on triploid hybrid selection. Different methods are developed to create triploid. The first method consists to exploit 2n gametes naturally produced by diploid crosses. The second method is based on interploid hybridization (2x X 4x and 4x X 2x).

Use of Cryopreservation in Breeding Programs

1992
Cultivated crop species, all over the world, are being improved continuously in order to meet the demand for more food, feed and fibre. Traditionally, crop improvement is based on conventional plant breeding strategies and this approach has resulted in the production and release of superior varieties of all major food crops. The breeding priorities are,
