Surviving a Genome Collision: Genomic Signatures of Allopolyploidization in the Recent Crop Species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Polyploidization has played a major role in crop plant evolution, leading to advantageous traits that have been selected by humans. Here, we describe restructuring patterns in the genome of Brassica napus L., a recent allopolyploid species.

Multi-trait Genomic Selection Methods for Crop Improvement

open access: yesGenetics, 2020
Plant breeders make selection decisions based on multiple traits, such as yield, plant height, flowering time, and disease resistance. A commonly used approach in multi-trait genomic selection is index selection, which assigns weights to different traits

Postcopulatory sexual selection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The female reproductive tract is where competition between the sperm of different males takes place, aided and abetted by the female herself. Intense postcopulatory sexual selection fosters inter-sexual conflict and drives rapid evolutionary change to ...

Genomic Selection for Prediction of Fruit-Related Traits in Pepper (Capsicum spp.)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Pepper (Capsicum spp.) fruit-related traits are critical determinants of quality. These traits are controlled by quantitatively inherited genes for which marker-assisted selection (MAS) has proven insufficiently effective.

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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
