Sentence examples for breeder selection from inspiring English sources

The study was designed to distinguish between three "selection modes": farmers' selection on-farm (FoF), breeder' selection on-station (BoS) and breeder's selection on-farm (BoF).

Ideally, new high-throughput, low-cost, genome-wide scanning technologies should be utilized in combination with skillful breeder selection.

SNP and SSR markers tightly co-segregating with the Ru_RGT locus may assist the breeder selection.

We evaluated several approaches for accelerating inbreeding, including the systematic use of back-crosses and marker-assisted breeder selection, which we contrasted with randomized sib-matings.

A disadvantage of AM is that changes in allele frequencies controlling targeted traits occur over time due to breeder selection, and the trend of close kinship between varieties of similar release year (White et al. 2008), can limit power to detect QTL.

Individuals in breeders' selection populations are then screened and GEBVs of individuals calculated based on genetic marker information, in order to identify outstanding 'elite' individuals.

This suggests that homozygous columnar plants are viable within their early life stages and the lack of described homozygous columnar varieties is probably due to breeders' selection criteria.

They are intrinsic to the evolutionary history, standing diversity, and genetic architecture of a population, and impact the velocity of its evolution and response to breeders' selection pressures.

Although nutrient-scarce environments are not normally preferred by breeders, selection under such conditions will be more effective for yield per se rather than selection for yield potential alone (Muruli and Paulsen 1981; Blum 1988).

Developing the breeding database within the GDR provides an excellent opportunity for easy access to publicly available data that could be used to enhance breeders' selection ability with newly developed genetic tests or expand breeders' private analyzable datasets with public breeding data from projects such as RosBREED (3).

Using simulations, we explored several alternative breeder-selection methods and monitored the gain and loss of genetic diversity, measured by the number of recombination-induced founder intervals, as a function of generation.
