Microsatellite-assisted backcross selection in maize
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2005 A microsatellite marker (SSR) was chosen to simulate a target allele and three criteria (02, 04 and 06 markers per chromosome) were tested to evaluate the most efficient parameters for performing marker-assisted backcross (MAB) selection.

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020 A Rosaceae family-level candidate gene approach was used to identify genes associated with sugar content in blackberry (Rubus subgenus Rubus). Three regions conserved among apple (Malus × domestica), peach (Prunus persica), and alpine strawberry ...

Plants, 2019 Triticale is a relatively new crop which still possesses serious drawbacks that can be significantly improved by breeding. The dwarfing genes proved to be very useful in the development of new lodging resistant and productive cultivars of winter ...

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

Impact of Genomic Technologies on Chickpea Breeding Strategies
Agronomy, 2012 The major abiotic and biotic stresses that adversely affect yield of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) include drought, heat, fusarium wilt, ascochyta blight and pod borer.

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.
