The phrase "and breeding based on" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts discussing genetics, agriculture, or animal husbandry, where breeding practices are influenced by specific criteria or factors.
Example: "The research focused on developing new crop varieties and breeding based on resistance to drought."
Alternatives: "and breeding according to" or "and breeding influenced by".
In a previous study, we constructed a cDNA library from flower buds and obtained 2,241 ESTs, from which 167 SSRs were derived and a dataset of 185 putative SNPs obtained for breeding based on their high availability and stability [ 15].
For this latter purpose, rats deriving from an F2 intercross between LEW and SHR strains were selected for breeding based on their genotype at polymorphic markers flanking the two QTLs.
Organized horse breeding based on different traits of conformation and performance under saddle has only been practised for one century [ 6- 8].
Breeding based on genetic transformation is more precise and can easily cross incompatibility boundaries in comparison with conventional crossing.
Our findings revealed that hybrid rice breeding based on the identified heterotic patterns holds the potential to boost grain yield and represents an important step for the long-term success of hybrid rice breeding.
As the heritability of the hip score was on the low end (0.21) of reported ranges, we propose that selection based on breeding values will result in more rapid genetic improvement than breeding based on phenotypic selection alone.
Substantial gains in traits of interest have been made through selection of individuals for breeding based on their phenotypes, or those of their close relatives [ 4].
This superiority is partly due to the presence of 61 sires, which were selected for breeding based on their own performance.
Recently, studies aimed at breeding based on genetic selection of pigs resistant to different pathological agents have been performed [ 15, 16].
In index-based breeding, based on breeding values, the specific combination of dogs used for breeding will be more important than the status of the dog itself.
