The objective of this study was to compare the selection of maize lines by genomic selection and phenotypic selection, performed on the basis of selection indices rather than on each trait separately. To achieve this, 256 plants of an F2 population (S1 lines) were genotyped with 177 microsatellite molecular markers. These lines were evaluated in experiments with replications, considering different...
Slow darkening (SD) is a trait that helps to maintain a brighter seed coat appearance in certain market classes of dry beans. The aim of this study was to generate new fluorescence-based markers and validate previously identified microsatellite markers for linkage to the SD trait in lines of the carioca market class. Four segregating populations were generated by Embrapa, the Brazilian Agricultural...
Lotus tenuis is a perennial forage legume species closely related to the model legume L. japonicus. Genetic relatedness between cultivated and model Lotus species has not been exploited so far. Furthermore, L. tenuis drought tolerance cultivars for marginal environments are in high demand. Marker-assisted selection is a modern breeding tool that allows to dissect genetically complex traits such as...
