Optimal allocation in designs for assessing heterosis from cDNA gene expression data.

Abstract excerpt

Heterosis is defined as the superiority of a hybrid cross over its two parents. Plant and animals breeders have long been exploiting heterosis, but the causes of this phenomenon are as yet only partly understood. Recently, chip technology has opened up the opportunity to study heterosis at the gene expression level. This article considers the cDNA chip technology, which allows assaying two genotypes...
