… In order to verify the impact of segregation distortion, we calculated twopoint estimates
and likelihoods for three-point orders in a similar manner as in Lorieux et al. (1995). An …

Several options are available to the scientific community for genetic map construction but
few are simple to install and use. Available programs either lack intuitive interface or are …

Genotyping by sequencing (GBS) is the latest application of next-generation sequencing
protocols for the purposes of discovering and genotyping SNPs in a variety of crop species and …

Rice progenies used for the construction of genetic maps permit exhaustive identification
and characterization of resistance genes present in their parental cultivars. We inoculated a …

Wild species of rice (genus Oryza) contain many useful genes but a vast majority of these
genes remain untapped to date because it is often difficult to transfer these genes into …

In F 2 populations, gametic and zygotic selection may affect the analysis of linkage in
different ways. Therefore, specific likelihood equations have to be developed for each case, …

… analysis: consider a linkage group with m markers, defining m- 1 intervals, and 1 selected
… Then, if we use Bailey's estimate, m - 1 - 1 recombination fractions will be well estimated, …

In Asian cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.), aroma is one of the most valuable traits in grain
quality and 2-ACP is the main volatile compound contributing to the characteristic popcorn-like …

As the human population grows from 7.8 billion to 10 billion over the next 30 years, breeders
must do everything possible to create crops that are highly productive and nutritious, while …

An interspecific partial genetic linkage map of Coffea sp. based on 62 backcross hybrids is
presented. F 1 hybrids were generated by a cross between the wild C. pseudozanguebariae …
