Biometric models and maize genetic breeding: A review
Australian Journal of Crop Science, 2018 Genetic variability is essential for maize breeding, being source of determining alleles and genes that maximize traits of agronomic interest, minimize abiotic and biotic stresses, as germplasm sources for breeding, one can use landraces, adapted ...

Multi-parent populations in crops: a toolbox integrating genomics and genetic mapping with breeding
Heredity, 2020 Crop populations derived from experimental crosses enable the genetic dissection of complex traits and support modern plant breeding. Among these, multi-parent populations now play a central role.

The effect of genomic information on optimal contribution selection in livestock breeding programs [PDF]
, 2013 BACKGROUND: Long-term benefits in animal breeding programs require that increases in genetic merit be balanced with the need to maintain diversity (lost due to inbreeding). This can be achieved by using optimal contribution selection. The availability of

RNA editing analysis of ATP synthase genes in the cotton cytoplasmic male sterile line H276A
Biological Research, 2019 Background Pollen development is an energy-consuming process that particularly occurs during meiosis. Low levels of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) may cause cell death, resulting in CMS (cytoplasmic male sterility). DNA sequence differences in ATP synthase

Biopower and an ecology of genes : seeing livestock as meat via genetics [PDF]
, 2015 This book chapter focuses on some of the implications of what has been represented as a radical change in livestock breeding for thinking about meat in relation to living farm animals: the use of genetic techniques in selecting breeding animals.
