Enabling Marker-Assisted Seedling Selection in the Washington Apple Breeding Program
Breeding new cultivars is a slow and expensive process, but genetic screening tools exist to improve efficiency. We employed the marker-assisted breeding (MAB) Pipeline approach to facilitate routine use of MAB in the Washington apple breeding program. This study traced the journey of one marker-locus-trait (M-L-T) association from publication through high-throughput PCR-based genetic testing t...
متن کاملBiotechnology and apple breeding in Japan
Apple is a fruit crop of significant economic importance, and breeders world wide continue to develop novel cultivars with improved characteristics. The lengthy juvenile period and the large field space required to grow apple populations have imposed major limitations on breeding. Various molecular biological techniques have been employed to make apple breeding easier. Transgenic technology has...

متن کامل15. Breeding Program Design Principles
Objectives to target: This relates to asking ‘Where to go?’, whereas Tools and Strategies below relate to ‘How to get there?’ Breeding objectives describe the type of animal that we might want to develop, or, more commonly, describe the utility of marginal genetic changes in each trait of commercial value. However, there is increasing concern about loss of genetic diversity, both within and b...
متن کاملA Breeding Program for Farmed Fallow Deer
There is increasing archaeological evidence that deer were being systematically cropped or “ranched” much earlier than has been previously supposed. In the Mediterranean region, fallow deer (Dama danm dama), made a sudden appearance on several islands at the same time as sheep, goats and pigs, and subsequently their bones make up 70 percent of those found at Neolithic sites between 6000 and 200...
