Perennial plant breeding is an expensive and time-consuming process, mainly due to the extended growth time for juveniles. In these cases, use of molecular marker-assisted selection (MMAS) allows a characteristic interest at seed or seedling stages. The objective this work was characterize segregation INO locus MMAS early seedless genotypes atemoya 'Gefner' [(G; Annona cherimola Mill. × squamos...

Genomic selection (GS) has become a very intense field of research during recent years. GS may be defined as the simultaneous selection for many (tens or hundreds of thousands of) markers, which cover the entire genome in a dense manner so that all genes are expected to be in linkage disequilibrium with at least some of the markers. In a sense, GS is marker assisted selection on a genome wide s...

a preliminary study on statistical modelling of a process for depolymerisation of cassava non-starch carbohydrate using halide salt assisted phosphoric and pyruvic acids were accomplished. the effects of three independent variables namely; acid concentration, potassium iodide salt and duration were studied using the central composite rotatable design on hydrolysis of the cassava non-starch carb...
