Within-family marker-assisted selection for aquaculture species
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
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 in Groundnut
Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is an important oilseed crop worldwide. Objective of this review is to highlight molecular breeding approach such as marker assisted selection on groundnut improvement with future perspectives. The review analyzed application of marker assisted selection including simple sequence repeats, random amplified polymorphism ...

For centuries humans have used artificial selection on the phenotypes of domestic species. Current developments in molecular genetic engineering have the potential to completely alter agricultural methods. Nonetheless, there are a number of reasons why traditional agricultural improvement techniques must always be used with molecular genetics ...

Identification of sex in F1 progenies of hop (Humulus lupulus L.) by molecular marker
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.

Towards marker assisted selection in livestock [PDF]
In recent years, genomic tools have become available for most livestock species and are now being used routinely to map quantitative trait loci underlying the genetic variance for numerous economically important traits. Fine-mapping methods are being devised to refine the initially coarse map positions of the quantitative trait loci to the point ...
