A simulation framework for reciprocal recurrent selection-based hybrid breeding under transparent and opaque simulators

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Hybrid breeding is an established and effective process to improve offspring performance, while it is resource-intensive and time-consuming for the recurrent process in reality.

Best Linear Unbiased Prediction of Genomic Breeding Values Using a Trait-Specific Marker-Derived Relationship Matrix [PDF]

, 2010
Background: With the availability of high density whole-genome single nucleotide polymorphism chips, genomic selection has become a promising method to estimate genetic merit with potentially high accuracy for animal, plant and aquaculture species of ...

Genome-Wide Association Analysis Dissects the Genetic Architecture of Maize Leaf Inclination Angle and Leaf Area Index

Agronomy
Leaf inclination angle (LIA) and leaf area index (LAI) are important components of crop population canopy structure, which affect population photosynthetic production via altering canopy light interception and transmittance, and gas diffusion.

Positive selection on the human genome [PDF]

Human Molecular Genetics, 2004
Positive selection has undoubtedly played a critical role in the evolution of Homo sapiens. Of the many phenotypic traits that define our species--notably the enormous brain, advanced cognitive abilities, complex vocal organs, bipedalism and opposable thumbs--most (if not all) are likely the product of strong positive selection.

Accuracy of genomic breeding value prediction for intramuscular fat using different genomic relationship matrices in Hanwoo (Korean cattle) [PDF]

Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2017
Objective Intramuscular fat is one of the meat quality traits that is considered in the selection strategies for Hanwoo (Korean cattle). Different methods are used to estimate the breeding value of selection candidates.

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.

A Review of Genomic Models for the Analysis of Livestock Crossbred Data

Frontiers in Genetics, 2020
Livestock breeding has shifted during the past decade toward genomic selection. For the estimation of breeding values in purebred breeding schemes, genomic best linear unbiased prediction has become the method of choice. Systematic crossbreeding with the
