A Population Genetics Model of Marker-Assisted Selection [PDF]
Genetics, 1997 A deterministic two-loci model was developed to predict genetic response to marker-assisted selection (MAS) in one generation and in multiple generations. Formulas were derived to relate linkage disequilibrium in a population to the proportion of additive genetic variance used by MAS, and in turn to an extra improvement in genetic response over ...

Efficiency of marker assisted selection
Animal Biotechnology, 1997 Genetic markers can be used in breeding programmes in a variety of ways. Here we emphasize marker assisted introgression in crossbred populations, and marker assisted selection in outbred populations. As marker typing costs reduce, the value of their use in a breeding programme will be dominated by returns rather than their costs.

Marker-assisted selection:A smart biotechnological strategy for modern plant breeding
Peruvian Journal of Agronomy, 2020 Plant breeders and geneticists use molecular marker-assisted selection also called as MAS as a useful approach for breeding of plant to make selection more efficient and speed up the breeding cycle. MAS can be more efficient, effective, and reliable than

Using marker-maps in marker-assisted selection
Genetical Research, 1995 SummaryA method of using information on the location of markers to improve the efficiency of markerassisted selection (MAS) in a population produced by a cross between two inbred lines is developed. The method is closer to mapping QTL than the selection index approaches to MAS described by previous authors.

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

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.

Prediction of haplotypes for ungenotyped animals and its effect on marker-assisted breeding value estimation [PDF]
, 2010 Background: In livestock populations, missing genotypes on a large proportion of animals are a major problem to implement the estimation of marker-assisted breeding values using haplotypes.

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 ...

THE IMPACT OF MOLECULAR GENETICS IN PLANT BREEDING: REALITIES AND PERSPECTIVES [PDF]
BAG. Journal of Basic and Applied Genetics, 2019 Even when conventional breeding was effective in achieving a continuous improvement in yield, Molecular Genetics tools applied in plant breeding contributed to maximize genetic gain.
