Sentence examples for breeding reviewed from inspiring English sources

Indeed, variation in day length has been found to have a major impact on several life history traits related to breeding (reviewed in [ 2]).

The development of SNP markers in plant species will contribute to the understanding of crop evolutionary history, to the positional cloning of QTLs, and to marker-assisted breeding (reviewed in [ 19]).

Interestingly, such bet hedging may occur to some degree in nature due to the tendency for individuals to naturally spawn over a period of days to weeks (breeding ecology reviewed in Fleming and Reynolds 2004; Fleming 1996).

Proline levels increase dramatically in plants under both drought [ 23] and salinity [ 24] conditions, and it was repeatedly suggested that using high proline levels as a biochemical marker may benefit stress breeding programs (reviewed in [ 25]).

The former is similar to what some studies have described as 'autumn sexuality' which may be related to higher breeding success (reviewed in Hegner and Wingfield 1986) and to any inherent qualities associated with different durations of elevated testosterone levels (see, e.g., Kempenaers et al. 2008).

Genomic selection (GS) (Meuwissen et al. 2001) is a relatively new breeding methodology reviewed by Hayes et al. (2009), Heffner et al. (2009), and Lorenz et al. (2011) that is increasingly attractive for the genetic improvement of various species because of its potential to increase the rate of genetic gain (Wong and Bernardo 2008; Lorenzana and Bernardo 2009; Heffner et al. 2010).

Li et al. (in prep .. Genotype by environment interactions in forest tree breeding: review and perspectives on research and application.

In fact, as far back as the late-1970s, correlandvexperimentalmental studies have repeatedly shown that reproductive success declines over the course of the breeding season in a variety of avian species, translating into strong directional selection for early breeding (review in Verhulst and Nilsson 2008).

We found that the increase in inbreeding (ΔF) per generation was higher with GS than with RRS, which was somewhat out of line with previous animal breeding results, as reviewed in Bouquet and Juga [ 28], where GS was found to reduce ΔF per generation compared to traditional breeding.

GS practices in plant breeding are then reviewed before future prospects are discussed.

Other effects of climate change on behavior include adjustments in the timing of weather-dependent activities such as breeding and migration (reviewed in Wuethrich (2000) and Parmesan (2006)), and even changes to social structure based on changes in resource distribution (Rubenstein 1992).
