Genetic diversity in F3 population of ornamental peppers (Capsicum annuum L.)
Peppers belong to the Solanaceae family and present a wide genetic variability that may be accessed through phenotypic and genotypic traits. This work aimed to study the genetic divergence in an ornamental pepper F3 population by multivariate methods ...

Quantitative trait loci mapping of panicle traits in rice.
In this study 90 individuals of recombinant inbred lines (RILs) were developed by crossing subspecies of japonica rice cultivar, 'Nagdong' and an indica type cultivar, 'Cheongcheong'. These individuals were used to identify the quantitative trait loci of panicle traits using SSR markers.

Agronomic and pod traits in relation to pod shattering in cultivated soybeans
Pod dehiscence or pod shattering from mature soybean (Glycine max L.) is one of the most outstanding disadvantages in domesticated cultivars. Pod shattering in relation to 16 quantitative traits and 3 qualitative traits among 140 cultivars of vegetable ...

How much can the orientation of G's eigenvectors tell us about genetic constraints? [PDF]
A key goal in evolutionary quantitative genetics is to understand how evolutionary trajectories are constrained by pleiotropic coupling among multiple traits.

Correlations, Path Coefficient Analysis and Heritability for Quantitative Traits in Finger Millet Landraces [PDF]
Knowledge of association between traits and heritability is important in breeding for purposes of effective trait selection. Such information on finger millet in east Africa is very limited.

DNA sequence polymorphisms in a panel of eight candidate bovine imprinted genes and their association with performance traits in Irish Holstein-Friesian cattle [PDF]
peer-reviewedBackground: Studies in mice and humans have shown that imprinted genes, whereby expression from one of the two parentally inherited alleles is attenuated or completely silenced, have a major effect on mammalian growth, metabolism and ...

Analysis of salinity tolerance in two varieties of Medicago sativa at the vegetative stage.
In this study, we analyzed salt tolerance in two varieties of Medicago sativa at the vegetative stage. Gabès2355 and Californian varieties of M. sativa were cultivated under control treatment and under a range of salt concentrations (50 mM, 100 mM, 150 ...

Quantitative trait loci for physical activity traits in mice
The genomic locations and identities of the genes that regulate voluntary physical activity are presently unknown. The purpose of this study was to search for quantitative trait loci (QTL) that are linked with daily mouse running wheel distance, duration, and speed of exercise. F2animals ( n = 310) derived from high active C57L/J and low active C3H/HeJ

Genome-wide associations for milk production and somatic cell score in Holstein-Friesian cattle in Ireland [PDF]
peer-reviewedBackground: Contemporary dairy breeding goals have broadened to include, along with milk production traits, a number of non-production-related traits in an effort to improve the overall functionality of the dairy cow.
