Melhoramento do cafeeiro: V - Melhoramento por hibridação [PDF]
A hibridação como método de melhoramento do cafeeiro, oferece amplas possibilidades que ainda se acham pouco exploradas. Para o caso da espécie C. arabica, a hibridação entre suas variedades, além de fornecer dados seguros sôbre a constituição genética, permite também a verificação de ocorrência da heterose, o melhoramento sem mudança dos caracteres ...

Fine Mapping of the Co-12 Anthracnose Resistance Gene in the Andean Common Bean Cultivar in Brazil [PDF]
The common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) cultivar Jalo Vermelho carries the Co-12 gene, which confers resistance to both Andean and Mesoamerican races of Colletotrichum lindemuthianum. Despite its importance for breeding programs, the genomic location and

Genetic Parameters of Methane Emission, Feed Efficiency, Feeding Behaviour, and Growth Traits in Beef Cattle. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Climate change has intensified the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, particularly methane (CH4) from enteric fermentation. Genetic selection has emerged as a promising mitigation strategy; however, studies on Bos taurus indicus, especially Nellore cattle, remain limited.

Genotype-By-Environment Interaction for Scrotal Circumference in Young Nellore Bulls Under Pasture and Feedlot Conditions and Its Correlation With Days to Calving. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Scrotal circumference (SC) is a key reproductive indicator in beef cattle and an important predictor of male puberty and correlated female fertility. In this study, we evaluated young Nellore bulls raised under combinations of pasture and feedlot environments and modeled SC using a “double” reaction norm model. Additive genetic variance for SC

Genetic Parameter Estimation for Pregnancy Loss and Their Association With Reproductive and Growth Traits in Brahman Cattle Under Extensive Tropical Conditions. [PDF]
ABSTRACT This study estimated genetic parameters for pregnancy loss (PL) in Brahman cattle and evaluated the genetic correlation of PL with growth and reproductive traits using both the pedigree relationship matrix (A) and pedigree plus genomic relationship matrix (H). Data were collected from two herds in Bolivia, focusing on three age groups: heifers,

Genomic Prediction and Genome-Wide Association Analysis of Heat Tolerance for Milk Yield in Buffaloes Using a Reaction Norm Model. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of incorporating genomic information on the estimation of genetic (co)variance components and the accuracy of breeding values for milk yield under varying thermal environments, and to identify SNPs associated with genes that play significant roles in heat tolerance.
