Breeding Plans and Selection Methods
2017This chapter evaluates the application and applicability of the classical breeding and selection methods and techniques in oil palm. Since its inception, oil palm breeding was guided by the need to produce sufficient improved planting materials to meet the requirements of a rapidly expanding plantation industry.

Darwinian selection, selective breeding and the welfare of animals
Veterinary Record, 2009There has been a good deal of interest expressed recently, including through the pages of The Veterinary Record , on the issues surrounding the breeding of dogs and their welfare. This is welcome — and the 150th anniversary of the publication of ‘On the Origin of Species’ is perhaps ...

BREEDING AND GENETICS SYMPOSIUM: Climate change and selective breeding in aquaculture
Journal of Animal Science, 2017Aquaculture is the fastest growing food production sector and it contributes significantly to global food security. Based on Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations, aquaculture production must increase significantly to meet the future global demand for aquatic foods in 2050. According to Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (

Selective breeding in aquaculture
Food Reviews International, 1990Abstract The basic techniques for selective breeding with cultured aquatic species were described and apparently practiced very early in the annals of aquaculture history; however, this approach has not been utilized in modern aquaculture as prevalently or as effectively as with terrestrial agricultural species. A large part of the aquaculture industry

Ethanol consumption: Selective breeding in mice
Behavior Genetics, 1981From a foundation stock of HS/Ibg mice, mass selection has yielded high-ethanol acceptance (HEA) and low-ethanol acceptance (LEA) lines with distributions which show little overlap in the 10th generation. Divergence has been systematic and the estimate of the realized heritability after 10 generations of selective breeding is 0.21 +/- 0.04.

In spite of the tremendous genetic potential revealed by recent botanical and (cyto)genetic research into the genus Coffea (see Chapter 2), coffee breeding is still largely restricted to the two species, Coffea arabica and C. canephora, that dominate world coffee production.

Après une description du caractère spécifique de la plante, on explique les avantages et les contraintes de l'amélioration du cocotier. Les objectifs de l'amélioration sont particulièrement complexes. Ils résultent d'un compromis entre les diverses habitudes alimentaires et culturelles, la connaissance de la plante et les technologies de transformation.

Selective Breeding and Domestication
1993A discussion group identified a series of hatchery practices that have the potential to induce selection and thereby to modify the gene pool of wild populations during hatchery rearing. The initial step in our discussion of selective breeding and domestication was to define these terms. Selective Breeding was defined as the intentional selection by man

The history of plant breeding in tea is as chequered and as old as the discovery of wild tea in Assam and elsewhere. From the very early days of tea growing, it was recognized that breeding of tea creates problems that are somewhat unique to the plant.
