Selection in backcross programmes.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences - 29 Jul 2005

Abstract excerpt

Backcrossing is a well-known and long established breeding scheme where a characteristic is introgressed from a donor parent into the genomic background of a recurrent parent. The various uses of backcrossing in modern genetics, particularly with the help of molecular markers, are reviewed here. Selection in backcross programmes is used to either improve the genetic value of plant and animal populations or fine...
