This knowledge can inform conservation strategies and captive breeding programs to increase the chances of species survival and recovery. ...
SNP Array in Agrigenomics Research SNP-based genotyping has become a first-class approach in plant and animal breeding programs for genomic selection. A major advantage of SNP microarrays is that they can be flexibly designed to suit the purpose, with microarrays developed for the genomes of selected organisms or for reference genomes. ...
Cause of the Disease Infectious pancreatic necrosis (also known as Acute catarrhal enteritis) is one of the first described and most extensively studied diseases of fish. There are strains and substrains of IPN virus that can be differentiated by serological, biochemical and genetic means. The VR-299 (type 1) strain was originally isolated in North America and has since been found almost ...
This study identified genetically diverse wheat accessions with broad-spectrum resistance that can be used in developing cultivars with high levels of resistance to multiple diseases in wheat breeding ...
Thus in some cases, the LN-causing gene may go undetected in breeding populations. Pyramided isolines containing Rsv1-n and Rsv4 together were susceptible to SMV-G6, displaying a mosaic reaction, although Rsv4 alone confers resistance against all known strains. This study demonstrates the importance of selecting against the Rsv1-n allele to prevent its introduction into ...
