The genetic dissection of quantitative traits in crops
(Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso, 2010)
Most traits of interest in plant breeding show quantitative inheritance, which complicate the breeding process since phenotypic performances only partially reflects the genetic values of individuals. The genetic variation ...

Allelic variation at the TaZds-A1 locus on wheat chromosome 2A and development of a functional marker in common wheat
(Elsevier, 2012)
Ζ (zeta)-carotene desaturase (ZDS) is a key enzyme for carotenoid biosynthesis, demonstrating high association with the yellow pigment (YP) content in wheat grain. Cloning ZDS gene and developing functional markers are ...
Article
Revisiting the hetero-fertilization phenomenon in maize
(Public Library of Science, 2011)
Development of a seed DNA-based genotyping system for marker-assisted selection (MAS) has provided a novel opportunity for understanding aberrant reproductive phenomena such as hetero-fertilization (HF) by observing the ...

The screening of wheat germplasm for resistance to stripe and leaf rust in Kazakhstan using molecular markers
(David Publishing, 2012)
Resistance to stripe and leaf rusts is the most important objectives in Kazakhstan, and they are the major factor that adversely affects wheat yield and quality and finally causes considerable economic damage. This study ...

Genomic selection in wheat breeding using genotyping-by-sequencing
(Crop Science Society of America, 2012)
Genomic selection (GS) uses genome-wide molecular markers to predict breeding values and make selections of individuals or breeding lines prior to phenotyping. Here we show that genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) can be used ...
Article
Bin mapping of tomato diversity array (DArT) markers to genomic regions of Solanum lycopersicum x Solanum pennellii introgression lines
(Springer, 2012)
Marker-trait association studies in tomato have progressed rapidly due to the availability of several populations developed between wild species and domesticated tomato. However, in the absence of whole genome sequences ...
Article
Genome-enabled prediction of genetic values using radial basis function neural networks
(Springer, 2012)
The availability of high density panels of molecular markers has prompted the adoption of genomic selection (GS) methods in animal and plant breeding. In GS, parametric, semi-parametric and non-parametric regressions models ...
Article
Distribution of allelic variation for genes of vernalization and photoperiod among wheat cultivars from 23 countries
(Institute of Crop Sciences, 2011)
Molecular markers for vernalization genes Vrn-A1, Vrn-B1, Vrn-D1 and Vrn-B3 and photoperiod gene Ppd-D1 were used to detect the presence of these genes among 755 cultivars from 23 countries. Days to heading and physiological ...
Article
Genomic-enabled prediction based on molecular markers and pedigree using the Bayesian linear regression package in R
(Crop Science Society of America, 2010)
The availability of dense molecular markers has made possible the use of genomic selection in plant and animal breeding. However, models for genomic selection pose several computational and statistical challenges and require ...
