Genetic linkage mapping of economically important traits in cultivated tetraploid potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) [PDF]
The objective of this study was to construct a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based genetic map at the cultivated tetraploid level to locate quantitative trait loci (QTL) contributing to economically important traits in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.)

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 ...

Optimal selection on two quantitative trait loci with linkage
A mathematical approach to optimize selection on multiple quantitative trait loci (QTL) and an estimate of residual polygenic effects was applied to selection on two linked or unlinked additive QTL.

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.

Estimation of linkage disequilibrium in four US pig breeds
Background The success of marker assisted selection depends on the amount of linkage disequilibrium (LD) across the genome. To implement marker assisted selection in the swine breeding industry, information about extent and degree of LD is essential. The
