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.

SSR Linkage Maps and Identification of QTL Controlling Morpho-Phenological Traits in Two Iranian Wheat RIL Populations

BioTech, 2022
Wheat is one of the essential grains grown in large areas. Identifying the genetic structure of agronomic and morphological traits of wheat can help to discover the genetic mechanisms of grain yield.

A Rosaceae Family-Level Approach To Identify Loci Influencing Soluble Solids Content in Blackberry for DNA-Informed Breeding

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 ...

Effect of Dwarfing Gene Ddw1 on Height and Agronomic Traits in Spring Triticale in Greenhouse and Field Experiments in a Non-Black Earth Region of Russia

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 ...

Marker-assisted selection of qMrdd8 to improve maize resistance to rough dwarf disease

Breeding Science, 2020
Maize rough dwarf disease (MRDD) is caused by viruses in the Fijivirus genus in the family Reoviridae. MRDD resistance can be improved by a combination of marker-assisted selection (MAS) and conventional breeding strategies.

Salt Tolerance Improvement in Rice through Efficient SNP Marker-Assisted Selection Coupled with Speed-Breeding

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019
Salinity critically limits rice metabolism, growth, and productivity worldwide. Improvement of the salt resistance of locally grown high-yielding cultivars is a slow process.

Within-family marker-assisted selection for aquaculture species

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 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.
