Abstract excerpt
The objectives of this study were to develop and simulate the implementation of several strategies for repeated application of quantitative trait loci (QTL) detection and marker-assisted selection (MAS) and to compare the short-term and continual genetic responses. A finite locus model was simulated with 20 QTL randomly distributed across 30 chromosome. Three hundred markers were evenly spaced across the genome....
