Sentence examples for trait enhancement from inspiring English sources
Breeding has an impressive track record for crop improvement and trait enhancement.
All of these trait enhancements call for genomic tools development.
One was performed in the United States using brain in vivo imaging as a quantitative trait (QT) enhancement of statistical power in a genome-wide association study (QT-GWAS; [ 7]), the other one was a case-control association analysis of a group of Thai Asians [ 6].
Genetic transformation of rice has progressed rapidly in recent decades to meet specific requirements, and a number of agronomically important traits, including enhancement of resistance to insects and diseases [ 2], tolerance to herbicides, quality improvement [ 3], and increased nutritional value [ 4], have been introduced into rice.
Among potential targets for trait improvement, an enhancement of stress tolerance is considered because of the high negative influence of environmental stresses on trait parameters.
A rapid high-resolution genome-wide strategy for molecular mapping of major QTL s)/gene(s) regulating important agronomic traits is vital for in-depth dissection of complex quantitative traits and genetic enhancement in chickpea.
Exploiting these traits in germplasm enhancement will be possible if sufficient genetic variation is available in the cultivated rice gene pool or wild relatives.
In agreement to these behavioral traits, there was an enhancement in dopamine metabolism in the basal ganglia regions [ 46].
Over the centuries traditional selective breeding of superior individuals has resulted in the marked enhancement of production traits based on phenotypic expression of desirable traits [ 23].
Rare alleles contributing to the gain or enhancement of the trait value may be useful for future adaptability of the rice crop, these may involve novel mechanisms of salt tolerance.
Most of these yield-contributing (seed size/weight) and stress tolerance traits targeted for chickpea genetic enhancement are complex and quantitative in nature and governed by multiple major and/or minor genes/QTLs (quantitative trait loci).
