18 sty 2023 · Plant breeding aims to select, identify, and expand varieties with valuable traits desired by consumers and breeders in the next generations by targeting diversity through new variations. Therefore, breeding will fail if suitable individuals cannot be selected for the next generation.
13 maj 2024 · Nov. 19, 2021 — Scientists are a step closer to breeding plants with genes from only one parent. New research led by plant biologists at UC Davis shows the underlying mechanism behind ...
14 kwi 2021 · New breeding methods, such as genome selection that predicts phenotypic outcome based on genotypic data, are revolutionizing breeding practices by shortening breeding cycles and increasing selection efficacy, probably two to three times faster than traditional breeding.
1 kwi 2020 · For the purposes of this review, we highlight in more detail three areas where plant breeding can benefit from evolutionary insights: the impact of selective sweeps on genetic diversity, demographic history in relation to the accumulation of genetic load, and applications of gene editing technologies for de novo domestication and precision ...
18 paź 2024 · Plant breeding is the production of plants by selective mating or hybridization. It is the traditional mechanism for producing new varieties of plants for horticulture and agriculture.
3 sty 2023 · Plant breeding helps to develop improved varieties for resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses, improve crop productivity, and thus help stabilize the market and reduce price volatility, contribute to reduction of greenhouse gas emission, and help improve farmers’ incomes.
1 cze 2021 · Innovative plant breeding can disrupt the current bottlenecks to achieve high-value crop varieties incorporating new gene technology and should lead to widespread acceptance of plant-breeding innovations (Box 5).
