Stratified mass selection, individual selection between and within, and genetic gains in native maize varieties [PDF]
Revista CeresMaize is an important cereal that is grown and consumed all over the world. Among the selection methods that contribute to increasing the frequency of favorable alleles in native maize populations, selection between and within and stratified mass ...

COMPONENTS OF GENETIC VARIANCE IN THE CULTIVATED STRAWBERRY
Genetics, 1968 FISHER (1918) subdivided genotypic variance (the variance due to genetic variation) into three components: (1) a part due to the average effects of genes (now called additive genetic variance) , (2) a part due to allelic interactions of genes that is called dominance variance, and (3) a part due to nonallelic interactions of genes that is called ...

Genetic Variance Components in Cotton by Generation Mean Analysis
BADEGGI JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH AND ENVIRONMENT, 2021 The mode of gene action for the expression of quantitative traits is decided by the predominance of variances due to additive, dominance and epistasis gene effects. In this experiment, involving four F1 crosses (TCH1716 x TCB37, TCH1705-101 x TCB209, KC2 x TCB26 and TSH0250 x DB3) of upland cotton, inheritance of major yield components by Generation ...

Genetic analysis of longevity and their associations with fertility traits in Holstein cattle
Animal, 2023 The increase of longevity is intended to reduce involuntary culling rates, not extend the life span, and it reflects the ability of animals to successfully cope with the environment and disease during production.

Genetic Variance Components and Heritabilities of Several Avocado Traits [PDF]
Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 1993 Genetic variance components for avocado (Persea americana Mill.) traits were estimated to improve avocado breeding efficiency. The additive and nonadditive genetic variance components were calculated from the variances between and within crosses. In all nine traits examined, i.e.-anise scent,

QTLRel: an R Package for Genome-wide Association Studies in which Relatedness is a Concern
BMC Genetics, 2011 Background Existing software for quantitative trait mapping is either not able to model polygenic variation or does not allow incorporation of more than one genetic variance component. Improperly modeling the genetic relatedness among subjects can result
