Simultaneous Selection of Sweet-Waxy Corn Ideotypes Appealing to Hybrid Seed Producers, Growers, and Consumers in Thailand

open access: yesAgronomy, 2021
Multi-trait selection helps breeders identify genotypes that appeal to divergent groups of preferences. In this study, we performed simultaneous selection of sweet-waxy corn hybrids on several traits covering the perspectives of consumers (taller kernel ...

Index selection in relational databases [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of ICCI'93: 5th International Conference on Computing and Information, 2002
Intending to develop a tool which aims to support the physical design of relational databases can not be done without considering the problem of index selection. Generally the problem is split into a primary and secondary index selection problem and the selection is done per table.

Variable selection for the single index model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We consider variable selection in the single-index model. We prove that the popular leave-m-out crossvalidation method has different behaviour in the single-index model from that in linear regression models or nonparametric regression models.

Breeding Short-Day Strawberry Genotypes for Cultivation in Tropical and Subtropical Regions

open access: yesHorticulturae, 2023
The main strawberry cultivars grown in tropical regions originated from breeding programs developed in temperate countries, which limit the expression of their maximum productive potential when grown in warm climates. Additionally, strawberry cultivation

Effect of Genetic and Environmental Factors on Twin Pregnancy in Primiparous Dairy Cows

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
Twin pregnancies are highly undesirable in dairy cattle; they compromise the health and wellbeing of a cow and dramatically impair the farm economy. Recently, a genomic prediction for twin pregnancies has been developed.
