The impact of epistasis in the heterosis and combining ability analyses. [PDF]
Abstract The current theoretical knowledge concerning the influence of epistasis on heterosis is based on simplified multiplicative model. The objective of this study was to assess the impact of epistasis in the heterosis and combining ability analyses, assuming additive model, hundreds of genes, linkage disequilibrium (LD), dominance, and ...

Combining Ability of Inbred Lines of Leghorns ,
Abstract THE use of the topcross test for evaluating the combining ability of inbred lines was originally proposed by corn breeders (Lindstrom, 1931; Jenkins and Brunson, 1932). The procedure has subsequently been adopted for use with poultry. Information in the literature concerning the combining ability of inbred lines of chickens is meager ...

Vitrification Ability of Combined and Single Cryoprotective Agents [PDF]
Cryoprotective agents (CPA) are an important part of many current vitrification methods. The vitrification ability of CPAs influences the probability of the glass transition and water crystallization occurrence. Thermal characteristics and the vitrification ability of two combined CPAs (PVS2 and PVS3), common plant vitrification solutions, and four ...
