Two hundred and sixty maize inbred lines, representative of the genetic diversity among
essentially all public lines of importance to temperate breeding and many important tropical …

The genetic basis of heterosis of an elite rice hybrid was investigated by using an
“immortalized F2” population produced by randomly permutated intermating of 240 …

Molecular markers have been used to map quantitative trait loci. However, they are rarely
used to evaluate effects of chromosome segments of the entire genome. The original interval …

Genetic analyses of complex traits in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) are facilitated by the
availability of unique genetic tools such as chromosome substitution lines and recombinant …

We have been constructing linkage maps for watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) on the basis of
random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), restriction fragment length polymorphism …

Seed‐oil concentration is a major consideration in sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.)
breeding because it is an important component of oil yield. Seed‐oil concentration is a …

The first chapter details the different techniques of molecular markers, emphasizing genetic
aspects, because these determine the type of use one can put it to. The construction of …

Quantitative trait loci (QTL) were mapped in the woody perennial Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga
menziesii var. menziesii [Mirb.] Franco) for complex traits controlling the timing of growth …

以优良玉米杂交组合(综3× 87-1) 的F2 群体为材料, 构建了包含150 个SSR 标记和24 个RFLP
