Significant progressive heterobeltiosis in banana crossbreeding [PDF]
BMC Plant Biology, 2020 Background Heterobeltiosis is the phenomenon when the hybrid’s performance is superior to its best performing parent. Banana ( Musa spp. AAA) breeding is a tedious, time-consuming process, taking up to two decades to develop a consumer acceptable hybrid.

Theoretical aspects of crossbreeding [PDF]
Genetics Selection Evolution, 1971 SUMMARY Methods of utilising breeds and bleed crosses in animal production are discussed, taking account of both genetical and economic aspects. The theoretical principles for breed and breed cross comparison are analysed, but most emphasis is given to methods of improvement of existing crosses.

Crossbreeding of Cattle in Africa
Journal of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences, 2018 Africa is endowed with a very wide range of mostly Bos indicus indigenous cattle breeds. A general statement with regard to their performance for meat or milk is that they are of inferior genetic value.

Mass transfer in beef: effect of crossbreeding and ultrasound application
Scientia Agricola, 2021 Cuts of muscle (biceps femoris) from three crossbreeds between the Nelore, Angus and Wagyu breeds of cattle (Crossbreed 1 (C1): 1⁄2 Angus and 1⁄2 Nelore; Crossbreed 2 (C2): 3⁄4 Angus and 1⁄4 Nelore; Crossbreed 3 (C3): 1⁄2 Wagyu, 1⁄4 Nelore and 1⁄4 Angus)

, 2021 Farmers play a key role in conserving native livestock breeds, but without economic support, farms with native breeds may not be viable. We hypothesized that terminal crossbreeding can improve herd economy and decrease the economic support needed from ...

Animals, 2021 Using three-breed rotational crossbreeding in a purebred Holstein (HO) herd raises two questions: Do the different genetic classes of cows generated by crossbreeding perform differently?
