Parents of the validation population were selected in a generation in which the selection pressure for females was higher than for males for T1 and T2.
Then, 20,000 females and 300 males from the last historical population were selected as founders, followed by 15 generations of selection for estimated breeding values from best linear unbiased predictions and random matings.
The genotyped individuals in the NL population were selected from 480 genotyped individuals of the fourth generation of artificial selection on fast and slow early exploratory behaviour (Drent et al., 2003) and the F1 and F2 intercrosses between the fast and slow lines (van Oers et al., 2004).
Three lines from the DH population were selected to backcross with CJ06 for 4 rounds.
The 307 SNPs used for the genotyping of the F2 population were selected from a 768-plex SNPs set, which was derived from a comparison of whole-genome sequencing between Nipponbare and Khau Mac Kho.
The 176 household heads, which are 30.9% of the study population, were selected using random sampling technique based on the sampling frames and the principle of proportional allocation for each kebele (Table 1).
To fine map YGL138 t) gene, a large F2 population derived from the cross of ygl138 mutant and normal green leaf variety Minghui 63 (Oryza sativa L. ssp. indica) was constructed, and 836 recessive individuals with yellow-green leaf phenotype in the population were selected for fine mapping.
(iii) Representative strains from the global population were selected from our previous analysis of 102 C. neoformans var.
The participants of this second population were selected from the prospective, randomized, controlled clinical trial MASS II.
Consequently, 202 people with knee arthroplasty (i.e., estimated 196,000 people in the French noninstitutionalised population) were selected.
16,945 people representative of the French population were selected in 1999 from the French census and interviewed about their level of disability.
