Molecular genetic markers can be used to assess genetic diversity, assign parentage, quantify inbreeding, and demonstrate structuring of populations across a system.

Striped Bass along the Atlantic Coast and within the Roanoke River drainage exhibit low genetic variation.

All-male fry are preferred to prevent uncontrolled reproduction before harvest in intensive Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) aquaculture. Males also grow faster than females. An alternative approach to direct hormonal masculinisation of tilapia fry is to produce fry that are genetically male. However, sex determination system in tilapia is fairly complex. Recent developments have resulted in a linkage map and genetic markers that can be used to analyse the sex determination system.

Fusarium related mycotoxins represent an issue in maize cultivation in many world areas, including Italy. The proven toxicity of this class of metabolites induced the major health organization to emanate rules for limiting their presence in human food and animal feed.

Aim of the work was the investigation of the genetic base of the resistance to Fusarium. The visual selection against the presence of the pathogen is an effective method to reduce

Abstract:
Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) is a devastating fungal disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and results in significant economic losses due to reductions in grain yield and the accumulation of mycotoxins, such as deoxynivalenol (DON) and nivalenol (NIV). As a result, breeding programs have been working to identify resistance genes in wheat varieties known to be resistant to FHB. Some of the major quantitative trait loci (QTL) for FHB resistance identified to date have been from exotic sources such as 'Sumai3' and the Chinese landrace Wangshuibai, and native resistance has been identified in Nor

Abstract:
Powdery mildew, caused by the pathogen Blumeria graminis (DC) Speer (Syn. Erysiphe graminis DC) f. sp. tritici, is a major disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Race-specific resistance is easily identified in the field due to its qualitative phenotype and it is easy to incorporate because it is inherited as a single gene. Unfortunately, this type of resistance is easily overcome by the pathogen. Traits associated with quantitative trait loci (QTL) such as adult-plant resistance (APR), have become popular with plant breeders because of their durability over a wide geographic range and ti

The face of animal breeding has changed significantly over the past few decades. Traditionally, the genetic improvement of both plant and animal species focussed on the selective breeding of individuals with superior phenotypes, with no precise knowledge of the genes controlling the traits under selection. Over the past few decades, however, advances in molecular genetics have led to the identification of genetic markers associated with genes controlling economically important traits, which has enabled breeders to enhance the genetic improvement of breeding stock through linkage disequilibrium

Abstract:
Weed control in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is challenging because of poor crop competition ability and limited herbicide options. Development of chickpea varieties with resistance to different herbicide modes of action would be desirable. Resistance to imidazolinone (IMI) herbicides in chickpea has been previously identified, but the genetic inheritance and the mechanism were unknown. In many plant species, IMI resistance is caused by point mutation(s) in the acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS) gene resulting in an amino acid substitution.
