Inbreeding and loss of genetic diversity increase the extinction risk of small isolated populations.Genetic rescue by augmenting gene flow is a powerful means for the restoration of lost genetic variation.In this stud...
The current study was conducted in the experimental field of the Department of Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering, Faculty of Life Science, University of Development Alternative, Dhaka, Bangladesh during the winter...
Funding for this research was in part provided by the Niedersächsisches Ministerium für Wissenschaft und Kultur through the EGON project:“Research for a sustainable agricultural production:Development of organically bred fruit cultivars in creative commons initiatives”,the USDA NIFA Specialty Crop Research Initiative projects,“RosBREED:Enabling marker-assisted breeding in Rosaceae”(2009-51181-05808);“RosBREED 2:Combining disease resistance with horticultural quality in new rosaceous cultivars”(2014-51181-22378),USDA NIFA Hatch project 1014919,and State Agricultural Experiment Station-University of Minnesota Project MIN-21-040.Part of the 20K Infinium SNP data came from the FruitBreedomics project no 265582:“Integrated approach for increasing breeding efficiency in fruit tree crops”50,which was co-funded by the EU seventh Framework Programme.
Pedigree information is of fundamental importance in breeding programs and related genetics efforts.However,many individuals have unknown pedigrees.While methods to identify and confirm direct parent–offspring relati...
A key grant for the work on peonies was given by the National Natural Science Foundation of China(NSFS30121003)。
The present article briefly reviewed the previling species concepts,especially biological,genetic,evolutionary,phylogenetic,ecological,and several taxonomic speqies concepts.The former five reflect the properties of s...
Most disturbed habitats in the tropics and subtropics harbor numerous species of invasive ants, and occasionally the same species has been introduced repeatedly from multiple geographical sources. We examined how expe...
