Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 Plant breeding is a decision-making discipline based on understanding project objectives. Genetic improvement projects can have two competing objectives: maximize the rate of genetic improvement and minimize the loss of useful genetic variance.

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2022 Background Genomic selection has revolutionized genetic improvement in animals and plants, but little is known about its long-term effects. Here, we investigated the long-term effects of genomic selection on response to selection, genetic variance, and ...

Oracle selection provides insight into how far off practice is from Utopia in plant breeding
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Since the introduction of genomic selection in plant breeding, high genetic gains have been realized in different plant breeding programs. Various methods based on genomic estimated breeding values (GEBVs) for selecting parental lines that maximize the ...

Frontiers in Genetics, 2023 Nucleus-based breeding programs are characterized by intense selection that results in high genetic gain, which inevitably means reduction of genetic variation in the breeding population. Therefore, genetic variation in such breeding systems is typically

Lexicase Selection at Scale [PDF]
Proceedings of the 2022 Genetic and Evolutionary Computation
Conference Companion (pp. 2054-2062), 2022 Lexicase selection is a semantic-aware parent selection method, which assesses individual test cases in a randomly-shuffled data stream. It has demonstrated success in multiple research areas including genetic programming, genetic algorithms, and more recently symbolic regression and deep learning.

Rare-Event Sampling Analysis Uncovers the Fitness Landscape of the Genetic Code [PDF]
, 2022 The genetic code refers to a rule that maps 64 codons to 20 amino acids. Nearly all organisms, with few exceptions, share the same genetic code, the standard genetic code (SGC). While it remains unclear why this universal code has arisen and been maintained during evolution, it may have been preserved under selection pressure.

Strategies Using Genomic Selection to Increase Genetic Gain in Breeding Programs for Wheat
Frontiers in Genetics, 2020 Conventional wheat-breeding programs involve crossing parental lines and subsequent selfing of the offspring for several generations to obtain inbred lines. Such a breeding program takes more than 8 years to develop a variety.

Comparison Study for Clonal Selection Algorithm and Genetic Algorithm [PDF]
International Journal of Computer Science & Information Technology
(IJCSIT) Vol 4, No 4, August 2012 pp 107-118, 2012 Two metaheuristic algorithms namely Artificial Immune Systems (AIS) and Genetic Algorithms are classified as computational systems inspired by theoretical immunology and genetics mechanisms. In this work we examine the comparative performances of two algorithms.

Genetic draft, selective interference, and population genetics of rapid adaptation [PDF]
Annual Review of Ecology, Evolution, and Systematics Vol. 44:
195-215, 2013, 2013 To learn about the past from a sample of genomic sequences, one needs to understand how evolutionary processes shape genetic diversity. Most population genetic inference is based on frameworks assuming adaptive evolution is rare. But if positive selection operates on many loci simultaneously, as has recently been suggested for many species including ...
