POSSIBILITIES OF APPLICATION OF FEED EFFICIENCY AND REPRODUCTION TRAITS IN DAIRY CATTLE BREEDING OF UKRAINE

open access: yesТваринництво та технології харчових продуктів, 2019
The purpose of the research was to analyze genetic and breeding peculiarities of feed efficiency and reproductive traits of dairy cows on the basis of world-wide and own experience as well as to ground possibilities of organization breeding process in ...

Identification of new TRAP markers linked to chlorophyll content, leaf senescence, and cell membrane stability in water-stressed wheat

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2014
In order to identify target region amplification polymorphism (TRAP) markers linked to three physiological traits in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), the segregating F4 population from the cross between drought-sensitive (Yecora Rojo) and drought-tolerant ...

Validation of QTLs for Fiber Quality Introgressed from Gossypium mustelinum by Selective Genotyping

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020
Gene introgression from wild species has been shown to be a feasible approach for fiber quality improvement in Upland cotton. Previously, we developed an interspecific G. mustelinum × G.

De novo assembly of transcriptomes from a B73 maize line introgressed with a QTL for resistance to gray leaf spot disease reveals a candidate allele of a lectin receptor-like kinase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Gray leaf spot (GLS) disease in maize, caused by the fungus Cercospora zeina, is a threat to maize production globally. Understanding the molecular basis for quantitative resistance to GLS is therefore important for food security.

Pleiotropic scaling and QTL data [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2008
Wagner et al. have recently introduced much-needed data to the debate on how complexity of the genotype-phenotype map affects the distribution of mutational effects. They used quantitative trait loci (QTLs) mapping analysis of 70 skeletal characters in mice and regressed the total QTL effect on the number of traits affected (level of pleiotropy).

Genetic and Physiological Characterization of a Calcium Deficiency Phenotype in Maize

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020
Calcium (Ca) is an essential plant nutrient, required for signaling, cell wall fortification and growth and development. Calcium deficiency (Ca-deficiency) in maize causes leaf tip rot and a so-called “bull-whipping” or “buggy-whipping” phenotype ...

A comparison of the Benjamini-Hochberg procedure with some Bayesian rules for multiple testing [PDF]

open access: yesIMS Collections 2008, Vol. 1, 211-230, 2008
In the spirit of modeling inference for microarrays as multiple testing for sparse mixtures, we present a similar approach to a simplified version of quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping. Unlike in case of microarrays, where the number of tests usually reaches tens of thousands, the number of tests performed in scans for QTL usually does not exceed ...

Genome Assembly Improvement and Mapping Convergently Evolved Skeletal Traits in Sticklebacks with Genotyping-by-Sequencing. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Marine populations of the threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) have repeatedly colonized and rapidly adapted to freshwater habitats, providing a powerful system to map the genetic architecture of evolved traits.

Seeing the wood for the trees: hyperspectral imaging for high throughput QTL detection in raspberry, a perennial crop species

open access: yesFruit Research, 2021
Physiological and physical traits are excellent indicators of many crop characteristics, but precise phenotyping of these traits is time consuming and, therefore, limits progress in crop breeding and the speed of crop monitoring.

Advances in QTL Mapping in Pigs [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Biological Sciences, 2007
Over the past 15 years advances in the porcine genetic linkage map and discovery of useful candidate genes have led to valuable gene and trait information being discovered. Early use of exotic breed crosses and now commercial breed crosses for quantitative trait loci (QTL) scans and candidate gene analyses have led to 110 publications which have ...
