Sentence examples for selection indices from inspiring English sources

These secondary traits could also be used as indirect selection indices to select genotypes with better root traits (Lopes and Reynolds 2010) which translates into higher grain yield in TE (Suji et al. 2012 a, b).

Improvement in multiple traits can be optimized via the use of selection indices, making the best use of all phenotypic information available to achieve specific selection objectives.

The study, at the outset, aims to establish blade and tower material selection indices on the basis of inherent structural constraints and potential design objectives.

Trends in selection index theory designing multi-trait breeding goals including functional traits on one hand, and developing methods for using customised selection indices on the other hand support breeding work for organic farming systems.

Index dummies represent selection indices of Deutsche Börse AG, using 'no index' as a reference category.

Index dummies represent the selection indices of Deutsche Börse AG, using 'no index' as a reference category.

Selection indices are commonly used in tree breeding to improve multiple traits simultaneously (Cotterill and Dean [1990]).

A more detailed description of the methodology of selection indices is given by Cameron [14].

The results from analyses with selection indices further underline the genetic predictive value of the morphological traits on the pathology associated with hip dysplasia, with optimum selection coefficients yielding a 14% increase in accuracy (directly related to response to selection) over the current aggregate score at improving all nine traits.
