Användandet av samlingsprover för att bestämma besättningsstatus för smitta med Dictyocaulus viviparus hos förstagångsbetande nötkreatur by Åberg, Malin

“…Those pooled samples which showed a strongly positive reaction had at least one test positive animal, and the negative pools contained no test positive animals. This indicates that such a test strategy could be useful to determine the risk of infection in a herd, for example preceding a sale. …”

A global overview of cassava genetic diversity by Ferguson, Morag E., Shah, Tushaar, Kulakow, Peter A., Ceballos, Hernán

“…A synthesis of results from genetic distance and ADMIXTURE analysis essentially revealed four populations (i) South American germplasm characterised by relatively higher genetic diversity with hypothetical ancestral founder genotypes from Brazil, (ii) a smaller group of African introduction germplasm which is more distantly related to all other germplasm, (iii) West Africa germplasm dominated by IITA breeding lines, containing sources of cassava mosaic disease resistance, and IITA genebank accessions from West Africa, both characterised by slightly lower diversity, and (iv) a less cohesive group of African germplasm, termed ‘Other’, with moderate levels of diversity and a majority of germplasm from ESC Africa. …”

Open Innovation and Value Creation in Crop Genetics by Müller, M.L., Campos, Hugo

“…The development of cultivars exhibiting improved climate resilience and containing effective input and agronomic traits and their adoption by growers and acceptance by supply chains, consumers, and society remain essential drivers of a successful agricultural strategy directed to feed the world and overcome the challenges brought by nature, an increasingly stringent regulatory environment, and an ever-growing population. …”
