Genome mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL) controlling domestication traits of intermediate wheatgrass (Thinopyrum intermedium). [PDF]
Allohexaploid (2n = 6x = 42) intermediate wheatgrass (Thinopyrum intermedium), abbreviated IWG, is an outcrossing perennial grass belonging to the tertiary gene pool of wheat.

Future trends in Animal Breeding due to new genetic tecnologies
The Darwin theory of evolution by natural selection is based on three principles: (a) variation; (b) inheritance; and (c) natural selection. Here, I take these principles as an excuse to review some topics related to the future research prospects in ...

Multiple QTL for horticultural traits and quantitative resistance to Phytophthora infestans linked on Solanum habrochaites chromosome 11. [PDF]
Previously, a Phytophthora infestans resistance QTL from Solanum habrochaites chromosome 11 was introgressed into cultivated tomato (S. lycopersicum). Fine mapping of this resistance QTL using near-isogenic lines (NILs) revealed some co-located QTL with ...

Genomic Prediction Ability for Novel Profitability Traits Using Different Models in Nelore Cattle
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to assess the accuracy, bias and dispersion of genomic predictions for accumulated profitability (APF) and profit per kilogram of liveweight gain (PFT) in Nelore cattle using different prediction approaches. The dataset consisted of 3969 phenotypic records for each trait. The pedigree harboured information from 38,930

Genomic Analysis of Taurine and Indicine Ancestry in the Montana Tropical Composite Population
ABSTRACT The Montana Tropical cattle, a Taurine and Indicine composite, were developed in Brazil since 1994 and were based on crossing four biological types of cattle: zebu (mainly Nelore), tropical adapted taurine (mainly Senepol and Romosinuano), British taurine (mainly Angus) and continental taurine (as Charolais, Simental and Limousin).

ABSTRACT In order to investigate the applicability and efficiency of genomic selection for growth and carcass traits in Nordic beef cattle, single‐step genomic BLUP (ssGBLUP) was applied in 4321 Charolais and 4532 Hereford animals with information on approximately 43,000 SNPs each.

Use of Cluster Analysis for Identifying Metafounders
ABSTRACT In the metafounder approach, the relationship matrix of metafounders, Γ$$ \boldsymbol{\Gamma} $$ is used to transfer information on relationships between pedigree founders into the numerator relationship matrix A$$ \mathbf{A} $$, creating matrix AΓ$$ {\mathbf{A}}^{\boldsymbol{\Gamma}} $$.

A high-recovery, high-density targeted genotyping platform for cranberry. [PDF]
Abstract The American cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon) is a commercially important berry species native to North America. Cranberry is a popular fruit crop with many known health benefits. Thus far, genotyping‐by‐sequencing (GBS) was the only high‐throughput genotyping technique available in cranberry.
