Selection theory for marker-assisted backcrossing.

Genetics - 1 Jun 2005

Frisch Matthias, Melchinger Albrecht E

Abstract excerpt

Marker-assisted backcrossing is routinely applied in breeding programs for gene introgression. While selection theory is the most important tool for the design of breeding programs for improvement of quantitative characters, no general selection theory is available for marker-assisted backcrossing. In this treatise, we develop a theory for marker-assisted selection for the proportion of the genome originating...
