Selective breeding for acoustic priming
Data on eight generations of selective breeding for acoustic priming efficacy are reported. The realized heritability of this trait is approximately 0.2-0.3, indicating that the trait is determined in part by genetic factors. Animals selectively bred for acoustic priming do not differ in terms of first-trial (i.e., non-priming-induced) audiogenic ...

The control of sea lice in Atlantic salmon by selective breeding [PDF]
Sea lice threaten the welfare of farmed Atlantic salmon and the sustainability of fish farming across the world. Chemical treatments are the major method of control but drug resistance means that alternatives are urgently needed.

The use of selective breeding is still relatively limited in aquaculture species. Information on such activities is sparse, hindering an overall evaluation of their success.

Abstract Most of the eucalypt plantations of the world are managed as short rotation coppice crops (5 to 15 years) to provide large quantities of roundwood at a low cost. Wood from young eucalypt plantations is used for firewood, charcoal, poles and posts, mine timbers, pulpwood for paper industries, and for reconstituted wood. Only a

Genomic selection in hybrid breeding
Plant Breeding, 2014AbstractWhile hybrid breeding is widely applied in outbreeding species, for many self‐pollinating crop plants, it has only recently been established. This may have had its reason in the limitations of methods available for hybrid performance prediction, in particular when established heterotic pools were absent.

Genomic Selection in Plant Breeding
2014Genomic selection (GS) is a method to predict the genetic value of selection candidates based on the genomic estimated breeding value (GEBV) predicted from high-density markers positioned throughout the genome. Unlike marker-assisted selection, the GEBV is based on all markers including both minor and major marker effects.
