Effect of Advanced Cycle Breeding on Genetic Diversity in Barley Breeding Germplasm
2008-05-01
Abstract excerpt
Plant breeding that emphasizes crosses among elite parents in a closed population (advanced cycle breeding) is presumed to decrease genetic diversity. To assess the effect of plant breeding on allelic diversity, we evaluated regional ancestors, parental lines, and cultivar candidates from the University of Minnesota six-rowed barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) breeding program between 1958 and 1998 using pedigree informa...
