Marker-Assisted Selection and Genomic Selection

, 2017
Breeding techniques and molecular tools, i.e., biotechnology, have increased crop yield over the last century. Marker-assisted selection and, more recently, genome-wide association studies and genomic selection have been used as tools of breeding programs, especially in the resistant genotype selection.

Exploring the molecular characteristics, detoxification functions, and immune responses of two glutathione S-transferases in redlip mullet (Liza haematochelia)

Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences
The mechanism for the elimination of xenobiotics undergoes three different phases of reactions in organisms. Among these, glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are classified as phase II detoxification enzymes, catalyzing the conjugation of electrophilic ...

Genomic selection in dairy cattle [PDF]

, 2011
The objectives of this Ph.D. thesis were (1) to optimise genomic selection in dairy cattle with respect to the accuracy of predicting total genetic merit and (2) to optimise a dairy cattle breeding program using genomic selection. The study was performed

Sequencing data: A genomic network to monitor Earth

, 2012
We propose that a network of genomic observatories should be established to take the planet's 'biological pulse'. We invite participants to assist in the shaping of this network (see genomicobservatories.org).

A Situational Assessment of the Diagnostic Landscape and Organizational Readiness to Implement Next‐Generation Sequencing at Two Childhood Cancer Treatment Centers in Ghana

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Next‐generation sequencing (NGS) has emerged as a promising approach to improve diagnostic accuracy, but its feasibility in low‐ and middle‐income countries remains unknown. This study characterized the diagnostic landscape and assessed organizational readiness for NGS implementation at two childhood cancer treatment centers in Accra ...

Genome-wide association studies on leaf midrib architecture in maize

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionLeaf midrib architecture (LMA) in maize plays essential roles in supporting leaf structure and facilitating photosynthetic performance. Despite its importance for plant architecture and yield potential, the genetic basis underlying key midrib

Central Nervous System Tumors Among Infants in Canada: A Report From CYP‐C

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) tumors in infants are rare, pose unique clinical challenges, and lack large‐scale evidence‐based data to guide management. This study seeks to describe CNS tumors in Canadian infants and to compare their outcomes with those of older children.

Dynamic transcriptome profiling revealed a key gene ZmJMJ20 and pathways associated with cadmium stress in maize

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Cadmium (Cd) pollution in soil poses a global concern due to its serious impacts on human health and ecological security. In plants, tremendous efforts have been made to identify some key genes and pathways in Cd stress responses. However, studies on the

Evolution of Genetics Organisations’ Strategies through the Implementation of Genomic Selection: Learnings and Prospects

Agriculture, 2022
Since its initial description in 2001, and with falling costs of genotyping, genomic selection has been implemented in a wide range of species. Theory predicts that the genomic selection approach to genetic improvement offers scope both for faster ...

Genomics Select [PDF]

Cell, 2009
Genomic plasticity is emerging as a mechanism of phenotypic variation both within individual organisms and across species over evolutionary time. This Genomics Select examines recently reported examples of genomic plasticity at work as well as the mechanisms for how one mode of genome alteration, transposition, is regulated.
