Development of a 10,000 Locus Genetic Map of the Sunflower Genome Based on Multiple Crosses
Genetic linkage maps have the potential to facilitate the genetic dissection of complex traits and comparative analyses of genome structure, as well as molecular breeding efforts in species of agronomic importance.

Current methods for mapping imprinted quantitative trait locus (iQTL) with inbred line crosses assume fixed QTL effects. When an iQTL segregates in experimental line crosses, combining different line crosses with similar genetic background can improve ...

Combining ability and heritability estimates of main agronomic characters in rapeseed breeding lines using line × tester analysis [PDF]
To estimate the general and specific combining ability (GCA and SCA) effects of plant height, yield components, seed yield and oil content, three testers and six lines of spring type of rapeseed varieties were crossed using line × tester fashion ...

GENETICAL ASPECTS OF SELF‐ AND CROSS‐STERILITY
With the exception of the war period, the genetical and physiological aspects of self-sterility in plants have been under investigation at the Bussey Institution of Harvard University for the last twelve years; and, as often is the case with material worked intensively, the experiments have opened up so many new problems that they will probably be ...

GENETIC ANALYSIS OF TWO EGYPTIAN WHEAT CROSSES (Triticum aestivum, L.) [PDF]
Non-allelic interaction scaling test (A, B, and C) coupled with joint scaling test χ2 and six parameters model were applied to test the adequacy of genetic model and estimates the genetic components for days to heading, flag leaf area, (cm)2 number of ...

Genetic Analyses of the Polarity Alleles in Recombinants from Mitochondrial Genetic Crosses [PDF]
A number of minority recombinant and parental types from a heterosexual cross were analyzed for the ω allele they carry. It was found that recombinant progeny can be ω − , that minority parental types among the progeny can be ω + rather than ω − , and, finally, that ...

SimpleMating: R‐package for prediction and optimization of breeding crosses using genomic selection
Selecting parents and crosses is a critical step for a successful breeding program. The ability to design crosses with high means that will maintain genetic variation in the population is the goal for long‐term applications.
