Decision support for cost-efficient and logistically feasible marker-assisted seedling selection in fruit breeding
2015-12-01
Abstract excerpt
Development of genetically improved new cultivars is expensive, especially for tree fruit which may take years for the organs of economic importance to appear for direct evaluation. A costly and time-consuming part of breeding programs is seedling selection, which involves identifying a few seedlings from among many thousands that have the genetic potential for desired performance levels. New DNA-based diagnostic...
