Accuracy of genomic selection in a rice synthetic population developed for recurrent selection. [PDF]

, 2013
Genomic selection is a promising breeding strategy for rapid improvement of complex traits. We investigated the accuracy of genomic estimate breeding values (GEBV) through cross validation in a synthetic population (SP) of broad genetic diversity ...

Inbreeding management and optimization of genetic gain with phenotypic and genomic selection in oil palm (Elaeis guineensis)[W776] [PDF]

, 2020
Oil palm breeding relies on reciprocal recurrent selection between two heterotic groups complementary for bunch number and average bunch weight. Given the long generation interval and the limited selection intensity imposed by the progeny tests currently

Pulmonary Dysfunction Is Associated With Sleep Study Abnormalities in Children With Sickle Cell Disease: A Multicenter Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pulmonary dysfunction and sleep abnormalities are common in children with sickle cell disease (SCD) and are associated with worse clinical outcomes. Whether spirometry abnormalities are associated with polysomnography (PSG) findings remains unclear.

Nutritional Security in Drylands: Fast-Track Intra-Population Genetic Improvement for Grain Iron and Zinc Densities in Pearl Millet

Frontiers in Nutrition, 2019
Considering the pervasive malnutrition caused by micronutrients, particularly those arising from the deficiencies of iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn), the primary focus of research in pearl millet is on biofortifying the crop with these two minerals. Pearl millet

New strategy for evaluating grain cooking quality of progenies in dry bean breeding programs [PDF]

Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2017
The methodology available for evaluating the cooking quality of dry beans is impractical for assessing a large number of progenies. The aims of this study were to propose a new strategy for evaluating cooking quality of grains and to estimate genetic and

Financial Burden Associated With Hospitalisation Among Families of Childhood Brain Tumours in Australia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Families of children with cancer experience significant financial strain, even with universal healthcare. Indirect costs, such as productivity losses and non‐medical expenses, are rarely included in economic evaluations, and little is known about how effectively financial aid programmes alleviate this burden. Childhood brain tumours

The Fate (Outcome) of Clinically Apparent Single Lesion and Oligofocal Nephroblastomatosis Treated According to SIOP/GPOH Protocols for Wilms Tumor

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The management of clinically apparent single lesions or oligofocal nephroblastomatosis, a facultative precursor of nephroblastoma, remains debated. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 37 patients with clinically apparent single or oligofocal nephroblastomatosis (two to three lesions per kidney) among 2347 patients registered between

Recurrent Selection for Yield in Soybeans

The Journal of Agriculture of the University of Puerto Rico, 1975
Procedures have been developed for yield testing of soybeans (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) that permit S1 testing with 1 year per cycle and S4 testing with 2 years per cycle. The principal factors in the program include efficient procedures for obtaining crossed seed by hand pollination, crossing and generation advance in Puerto Rico, and yield tests in ...
