Molecular breeding

2013
Breeding efforts are and will be in the future critical to improve worldwide crop production for food, feed, non-food industrial and environmental aims. The recent development of "omics" sciences, in particular genomics, and bioinformatics give the great opportunity to be either integrated into traditional breeding schemes, or used to generate new ...

Molecular breeding of viruses

Nature Genetics, 2000
Genetic recombination is a major force driving the evolution of many viruses. Recombination between two copackaged retroviral genomes may occur at rates as high as 40% per replication cycle. This enables genetic information to be shuffled rapidly, leading to recombinants with new patterns of mutations and phenotypes.

(MOLECULAR) BREEDING OF LILIUM

Acta Horticulturae, 2014
Lily breeding has become an important economic activity in the last 50 years. Within this period breeding has changed from making end-products that were mainly interspecific hybrids from the section Sinomartagon to polyploid hybrids that are derived from intersectional crosses. Especially the Longiflorum × Asiatic hybrids or LA hybrids and the Oriental

Molecular Plant Breeding

2023
This book focuses on genomics and plant biotechnology approaches used in plant breeding, the analysis of genomic data, and their application in quality control measures. The application of alternative genomic technologies to enhance conventional breeding strategies is also presented.

Molecular barley breeding

Euphytica, 2006
Breeding progress in barley yield in the UK is being sustained at a rate in the order of 1% per annum against a background of declining seed sales. Commercial barley breeders are largely concentrating upon the elite local gene pool but with genotypic evidence suggesting that there is still considerable variation between current recommended cultivars ...

Molecular Genetics and Breeding

2017
Molecular genetics is essentially the study of the mechanisms and effects of trait inheritance at the molecular level. Cytogenetic analysis—the study of the numbers, structure, and organization of the chromosomes packaging the DNA within the cell nucleus—is important for understanding evolution, genetics, epigenetics, genetic recombination, and nuclear

Rice Molecular Breeding at PhilRice

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2000
Biotechnology is one of the essential components of a food security strategy that the Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice) is strongly pursuing. The institute's biotechnology research strategy is to derive as much benefits as possible from the biotechnological research activities of laboratories around the world, and concentrate on areas of ...

Protein evolution by molecular breeding

Current Opinion in Chemical Biology, 1999
Natural evolution has guided the development of 'molecular breeding' processes used in the laboratory for the rapid modification of subgenomic sequences including single genes. The most significant recent development has been the in vitro permutation of natural diversity.

MOLECULAR CYTOGENETICS IN LILIUM BREEDING

Acta Horticulturae, 2014
In horticulture, interspecific hybridization is one of the most important tools to achieve genetic variation; this is especially true when it comes to ornamental crops, where it is always necessary to introduce new traits, such as flower colour, petal shapes, stem size and strength, longevity, disease resistances and more.
