Genomics Select [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2007
The incredible leaps in technology that now make high-speed genome sequencing possible are revolutionizing the hunt for genes and genetic variations associated with disease. A stunning series of recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified new candidate genes for a number of common diseases including breast cancer, heart disease ...

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

Pitfalls and Remedies for Cross Validation with Multi-trait Genomic Prediction Methods. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Incorporating measurements on correlated traits into genomic prediction models can increase prediction accuracy and selection gain. However, multi-trait genomic prediction models are complex and prone to overfitting which may result in a loss of ...

Genomics Select [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 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.

Advances in genomic tools for plant breeding: harnessing DNA molecular markers, genomic selection, and genome editing

open access: yesBiological Research
Conventional pre-genomics breeding methodologies have significantly improved crop yields since the mid-twentieth century. Genomics provides breeders with advanced tools for whole-genome study, enabling a direct genotype–phenotype analysis. This shift has

Marker-Assisted Selection and Genomic Selection

open access: yes, 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.

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.
