Introgressed Brassica napus × Sinapis alba enhance resistance to the crucifer flea beetle (Phyllotreta cruciferae)

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that Brassica napus lines with Sinapis alba introgressions enhanced resistance against Phyllotreta cruciferae, resulting in reduced feeding damage and improved seedling physiological performance. The introgressed lines showed strong potential as genetic resources for developing more resilient and sustainable canola varieties ...

Identifying resistance‐conferring cytochrome P450s in weeds: experimental strategies and practical considerations

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Identifying resistance‐conferring cytochrome P450s requires integrating weed characterization, gene discovery and functional validation. No single approach is sufficient to distinguish causal resistance genes from herbicide‐metabolizing enzymes. Abstract Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s) play a pivotal role in metabolic herbicide resistance, yet ...

TOP1MT rs2293925 is an enhancer‐active regulatory SNP that shapes mitochondrial R‐loop dynamics

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This study shows how a common genetic variant of mitochondrial topoisomerase 1 (TOP1MT rs2293925) can influence mitochondrial gene regulation, DNA topology, and formation of noncanonical nucleic acid structures such as R‐loops. By linking this enhancer‐active variant to mitochondrial nucleic acid stress in cellular contexts relevant to amyotrophic ...

Population Differentiation and Polygenic Selection in the Finnish Ayrshire Cows Selected on Genomic Information

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Finnish Ayrshire cattle belong to the Nordic Red breeds. The basis of selection in Nordic Red breeds shifted from traditional pedigree‐based breeding values to genomic breeding values between 2011 and 2014. Joint genetic evaluation and admixture among the Nordic Red breeds have led to the formation of a composite Nordic Red population ...

Control of plant height by 24 alleles at 12 quantitative trait loci in rice

Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2019
Plant height (PH) is controlled by quantitative trait loci (QTLs) in rice. In the present study, a recombinant inbred line population developed by crossing two rice cultivars, Lemont and Yangdao4, was grown in eight environments for QTL analysis ...

QTL mapping in autotetraploids using SNP dosage information [PDF]

, 2014
Dense linkage maps derived by analysing SNP dosage in autotetraploids provide detailed information about the location of, and genetic model at, quantitative trait loci.

Evaluating Selection Strategies Based on Inbreeding Load via Simulation

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Inbreeding load is the fraction of the mutation load that is due to recessive action of mutations. This load is only expressed in individual's inbred offspring. As such, inbreeding load contributes to genetic heterogeneity among individuals and can thus be used as a criterion of selection.

Preliminary study of QTLs for susceptibility to blue mold in apple (Malus x domestica) identified with genome-wide association mapping [PDF]

Journal of Horticulture and Postharvest Research
Purpose: Apple is one of the commercially most important fruits hosting a wide range of postharvest diseases that can threaten grower economy resulting in a yearly yield loss. Fungal diseases are the major problem in many countries, especially in organic

Genetic Evaluation of Pure Line Laying Hens Based on Crossover Testing Data From Simulated Populations

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Commercial laying hen breeding programs aim to maximize the performance of crossbred animals. However, selection is usually based on data from pure lines raised in controlled nucleus environments, which may not fully predict the yields under commercial conditions.

QTL ANALYSIS OF BIOCHEMICAL TRAITS OF QUALITY IN BRASSICA RAPA L.

Овощи России, 2015
Using two mapping populations of DH lines of Brassica rapa (DH30, obtained by crossing of turnip and yellow sarson, and DH38, obtained by crossing of pakchoi and yellow sarson) the QTL analysis of five biochemical traits of quality was done.
