Marker assisted selection with optimised contributions of the candidates to selection [PDF]

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2002
The benefits of marker assisted selection (MAS) are evaluated under realistic assumptions in schemes where the genetic contributions of the candidates to selection are optimised for maximising the rate of genetic progress while restricting the ...

Recent advancements in molecular marker-assisted selection and applications in plant breeding programmes [PDF]

Journal of Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Background DNA markers improved the productivity and accuracy of classical plant breeding by means of marker-assisted selection (MAS). The enormous number of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) mapping read for different plant species have given a plenitude ...

Drought Tolerance and Application of Marker-Assisted Selection in Sorghum. [PDF]

Biology (Basel), 2021
Simple Summary Sorghum is a climate-resilient crop grown in limited rainfall areas globally. However, climate change has increased temperature and shortened rainfall durations, which has constrained crop yield. We reviewed mechanisms of drought tolerance

Marker‐assisted selection using ridge regression [PDF]

Annals of Human Genetics, 1999
In crosses between inbred lines, linear regression can be used to estimate the correlation of markers with a trait of interest; these marker effects then allow marker assisted selection (MAS) for quantitative traits. Usually a subset of markers to include in the model must be selected: no completely satisfactory method of doing this exists.

Marker-assisted selection and gene pyramiding for resistance to bacterial leaf blight disease of rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2019
Marker-assisted selection and gene pyramiding are very important breeding strategies for conferring broad spectrum and durable resistance against diseases causing yield loss in rice.

Within-family marker-assisted selection for aquaculture species [PDF]

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2007
A within-family marker-assisted selection scheme was designed for typical aquaculture breeding schemes, where most traits are recorded on sibs of the candidates. Here, sibs of candidates were tested for the trait and genotyped to establish genetic marker

Marker-assisted selection for quantitative traits [PDF]

Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2011
Although thousands of scientific articles have been published on the subject of marker-assisted selection (MAS) andquantitative trait loci (QTL), the application of MAS for QTL in plant breeding has been restricted.

Soybean pod shattering resistance allele pdh1 and marker‐assisted selection [PDF]

Plant-Environment Interactions
Pod shattering is a major production constraint of soybean [Glycine max (L.)]. The objectives of this study were to (i) estimate heritability for pod shattering resistance, (ii) determine the frequency of the pod shattering resistance allele pdh1 in the ...

On Prediction of Genetic Values in Marker-Assisted Selection

Genetics, 2001
Abstract We suggest a new approximation for the prediction of genetic values in marker-assisted selection. The new approximation is compared to the standard approach. It is shown that the new approach will often provide substantially better prediction of genetic values; furthermore the new approximation avoids some of the known ...
