Defining the genome structure of ‘tongil’ rice, an important cultivar in the korean “green revolution by Kim, Backki, Kim, Dong-Gwan, Lee, Gileung, Seo, Jeonghwan, Choi, Ik-Young, Choi, Beom-Soon, Yang, Tae-Jin, Kim, Kwang Soo, Lee, Joohyun, Chin, Joong Hyoun, Koh, Hee-Jong

“…Analyses revealed that 91.8% of the Tongil genome originated from the indica parents and 7.9% from the japonica parent. Copy numbers of SSR motifs, ORF gene distribution throughout the whole genome, gene ontology (GO) annotation, and some yield-related QTLs or gene locations were also comparatively analyzed between Tongil and parental varieties using sequence-based tools. …”

Inheritance in doubled-diploid clementine and comparative study with SDR unreduced gametes of diploid clementine by Aleza, Pablo, Cuenca, José, Juárez, José, Navarro, Luis, Ollitrault, Patrick

“…Here we have analyzed the inheritance in doubled-diploid clementine and compared the genetic structures of gametes of DD clementine with SDR unreduced gametes of diploid clementine. Parental heterozygosity restitution (PHR) with DD parents depends on the rate of preferential chromosome pairing and thus the proportion of disomic versus tetrasomic segregations. …”

Through the genetic bottleneck : O. rufipogon as a source of trait-enhancing alleles for O. sativa by McCouch, Susan R., Sweeney, M, Li, J, Jiang, H., Thomson, M., Septiningsih, E.M., Edwards, J., Moncada, P, Xiao, J., Garris, AJ, Tai, T, Martínez Racines, César Pompilio, Tohme, Joseph M., Sugiono, M, McClung, A, Yuan, L

“…We demonstrate that AB-QTL analysis is capable of (1) successfully uncovering positive alleles in wild germplasm that were not obvious based on the phenotype of the parent (2) offering an estimation of the breeding value of exotic germplasm, (3) generating near isogenic lines that can be used as the basis for gene isolation and also as parents for further crossing in a variety development program and (4) providing gene-based markers for targeted introgression of alleles using marker-assisted-selection (MAS). …”

SNP panels for the estimation of dairy breed proportion and parentage assignment in African crossbred dairy cattle by Gebrehiwot, N.Z., Strucken, E.M., Marshall, Karen, Aliloo, H., Gibson, J.P.

“…For parentage assignment, informative SNPs were selected based on the highest minor allele frequency (MAF) in African crossbred populations assuming two Scenarios: (1) parents were selected among all the animals with known genotypes, and (2) parents were selected only among the animals known to be a parent of at least one progeny.For the medium-density genotype data, SNPs selected for the largest differences in allele frequency between West African indigenous and European Bos taurus breeds performed best for most African crossbred populations and achieved a prediction accuracy (r2) for breed composition of 0.926 to 0.961 with 200 SNPs. …”
