Selection Theory for Marker-Assisted Backcrossing [PDF]
Genetics, 2005 Abstract Marker-assisted backcrossing is routinely applied in breeding programs for gene introgression. While selection theory is the most important tool for the design of breeding programs for improvement of quantitative characters, no general selection theory is available for marker-assisted backcrossing. In this treatise, we develop a

Marker assisted selection with optimised contributions of the candidates to selection
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 ...

Identification of sex in F1 progenies of hop (Humulus lupulus L.) by molecular marker
Plant, Soil and Environment, 2002 Sex identification for hop (Humulus lupulus L.), which is a dioecious plant, is very important for breeding process. The use of molecular methods for marker-assisted selection (MAS) provides rapid and reliable identification of sex in F1 progenies.

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.

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.

Identification of a molecular marker linked to apomixis in Brachiaria humidicola (Poaceae) [PDF]
, 2010 A bulked segregant analysis using RAPD technique was carried out to identify molecular markers linked to apomixis in a Brachiaria humidicola F1 population that segregated 1 : 1 for the mode of reproduction (apomixis and sexual).
