#BIOBROOM#Breeding flies to fight broomrape parasite weeds Can flies be bred as gardeners weeding undesirable pests from the crop?
And open-heart surgery for dogs is only available at a few centers around the world. ur hope now is that breeders will be able to make informed breeding decisions
Bannasch explains that common breeding practices have made the dog a unique animal model to help understand the genetic basis of naturally occurring birth defects.
and breeders with a map they can use to home in on certain genes and by extension the plant s metabolic pathways.
what meets the tongue because in most plants those chemicals also confer defense against pests. epending on the cultivar in question breeders may want to change the biochemistrylyons says. ou could knock down chemicals you don t want
and move genes more rapidly through conventional breeding methods or through genetic modification techniqueswing says. he idea is to create a super-rice that will be higher yielding
and have enabled since the discovery of hundreds of agriculturally important genes including genes that code for faster breeding cycles
and grackles are smaller-brainedshe says. ut they re really innovative So they may have a reason to pay attention to causal information like this. he next research phase will begin next month after the grackles breeding season ends
Much of the progress plant breeders have made in improving plant yields is actually due to delaying leaf senescence Gan says.
or#fancy#poultry breeders to identify at fine resolution the exact location of the mutation in the genome in blue egg laying chickens.
#Moreover when appearing in the population the unusual egg coloration must have attracted the attention of the owners who must be praised for having selected the trait in subsequent breeding.#
Breeding strategythe methods used in the study may also help breeders. This discovery explains what breeders call the maternal grandsire effect says co-senior author Doug Antczak equine geneticist at Cornell s College of Veterinary medicine.
Some genes like so-called speed genes in great racehorses skip a generation and only express in grandchildren if their carrier was a certain sex.
which could help breeders decision-making Better understanding of genomic imprinting may offer insights into several human diseases.
By transferring this gene to commercial wheat varieties wheat breeders will have a distinct advantage in controlling the epidemic the researchers say.
and might be used more often in U s. agriculture Doug also discussed the success of conventional corn breeders who have increased drought tolerance at a steady pace of 1 percent per year over decades.
but breeding such mice is an expensive time-consuming process. Now MIT researchers have found an alternative:
His team has shown that the population of Adelie penguins breeding on nearby islands dropped 30 percent over the last three decades a decline related to a suite of environmental changes such as less summer sea ice less krill
which there s almost no recoveryâ#he says. â##We would miss a group of first year breeders or young birds
#Crystal breeding factory uncovered A breakthrough in understanding the way in which crystals develop will have a major impact for the pharmaceutical, chemical and food industries.
Lancaster University chemists in collaboration with international colleagues have uncovered a'Crystal Nuclei Breeding Factory'which, they say,
almost as if'breeding'is taking place. How this happens has never been understood. It's been a big question
and Professor Lennart Lindfors, of Astrazeneca, Sweden, have mapped out'in diagram format the actual movements made by chemical molecules on their breeding journey using computer simulations.
As an open access tool, researchers and crop breeders can submit their own data to Polymarker
Today, however, no rational young scientist interested in molecular techniques of crop breeding would choose a base in Continental Europe.
Plant and animal breeders may find it useful, too, for creating new strains of crops and livestock.
Monsanto, a plant-breeding and agrochemicals firm, has gone on record as saying that it is reluctant to employ CRISPR-Cas9 widely until it understands the intellectual property concerned.
--and harnessing their potential for the breeding and production of crop plants,"says Brigitte Poppenberger r
Sequencing the genome of Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) will help breeders develop varieties of cotton that are equipped better to combat the pests,
and breeders in the years ahead develop cotton varieties with improved fiber qualities, higher yields and more tolerance to heat, drought and diseases anticipated due to climate change.
and breeders. ur work indicates that SWEET4 could be a promising target for engineering varieties of maize,
The researchers hope this will enable the breeding of bespoke poppy varieties including those that produce the anticancer compound noscapine.
he discovery of the STORR gene provides us with a new tool for molecular plant breeding,
The process could be applied in plant breeding as a way to create haploid plants with genetic material from only one parent,
In a world first, Professor Wallace Cowling from The UWA Institute of Agriculture and his team have taken the breeding model commonly used by animal breeders,
Animal breeders have developed a method of breeding that takes into account information from all relatives across all generations.
the new breeding method could speed up genetic improvements for desirable traits such as grain quality and yield.
For example, companies that perform these releases have no way of breeding only males.""They're throwing away half of the mosquitoes that they rear because theye females,
