Genomic selection requires genomic control of inbreeding [PDF]

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2012
Background In the past, pedigree relationships were used to control and monitor inbreeding because genomic relationships among selection candidates were not available until recently.

Nonlinear genomic selection index accelerates multi-trait crop improvement [PDF]

Nature Communications
Linear phenotypic and genomic selection indices assume additivity and linearity, limiting their ability to exploit nonlinear trait relationships. Here, we introduce the Quadratic Genomic Selection Index (QGSI), a genomic extension of the quadratic ...

Efficient Breeding by Genomic Mating [PDF]

Frontiers in Genetics, 2016
Selection in breeding programs can be done by using phenotypes (phenotypic selection), pedigree relationship (breeding value selection) or molecular markers (marker assisted selection or genomic selection).

Efficiency of Recurrent Genomic Selection in Panmictic Populations [PDF]

Animals
Simulation-based studies can support breeders’ decisions inexpensively, since there is no need to perform a new procedure. The objective was to assess the efficiency of recurrent genomic selection in panmictic population under additive–dominance and ...

Polymorphisms associated with resistance to infectious diseases in different breeds of pigs of the Belgorod Region of Russia [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2023
Using the PCR-RFLP method, we genotyped pigs for the genes GBP1 (mutation c. [10A>G; 11A>G]), FUT1 (mutation G307A) and MUC4(A243G) associated with resistance to infectious diseases.

Genomic selection [PDF]

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, 2007
SummaryGenomic selection is a form of marker‐assisted selection in which genetic markers covering the whole genome are used so that all quantitative trait loci (QTL) are in linkage disequilibrium with at least one marker. This approach has become feasible thanks to the large number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) discovered by genome ...

Genome-wide association study reveals the genetic basis of brace root angle and diameter in maize

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022
Brace roots are the main organ to support the above-ground part of maize plant. It involves in plant growth and development by water absorption and lodging resistance. The bracing root angle (BRA) and diameter (BRD) are important components of brace root

Genome-wide association study presents insights into the genetic architecture of drought tolerance in maize seedlings under field water-deficit conditions

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
IntroductionDrought stress is one of the most serious abiotic stresses leading to crop yield reduction. Due to the wide range of planting areas, the production of maize is particularly affected by global drought stress.

Emerging issues in genomic selection [PDF]

Journal of Animal Science, 2021
Abstract Genomic selection (GS) is now practiced successfully across many species. However, many questions remain, such as long-term effects, estimations of genomic parameters, robustness of genome-wide association study (GWAS) with small and large datasets, and stability of genomic predictions.
