Comparison of phenotypic versus marker-assisted background selection for the SUB1 QTL during backcrossing in rice

Marker assisted backcrossing has been used effectively to transfer the submergence tolerance gene SUB1 into popular rice varieties, but the approach can be costly. The selection strategy comprising foreground marker and phenotypic selection was investigated as an alternative. The non-significant correlation coefficients between ranking of phenotypic selection and ranking of background marker se...

Comparing predictive abilities of phenotypic and marker-assisted selection methods in a biparental lettuce population

Comparing the Predictive Abilities of Phenotypic and Marker-Assisted Selection Methods in a Biparental Lettuce Population.

Breeding for traits with polygenic inheritance is a challenging task that can be done by phenotypic selection, marker-assisted selection (MAS) or genome-wide selection. We comparatively evaluated the predictive abilities of four selection models on a biparental lettuce ( L.) population genotyped with 95 single nucleotide polymorphisms and 205 amplified fragment length polymorphism markers. Thes...
