Isozyme markers for plant height and spikelet fertility in rice
14 marqueurs génétiques, en majorité des loci isozymiques, situés sur au moins 6 chromosomes différents, ont été identifiés pour plusieurs caractères végétatifs et reproductifs chez #Oryza sativa$. (Résumé d'auteur)

The molecular plant breeding belongs to the most important research branch in the modern agriculture and biology. The milestones in this area are genetic crosses in hybridbreeding, the discovery of elementary genetic code, the cell and tissue culture, the cloning of interesting genes and last but not least the physical mapping of DNAs. The barley a...
Molecular marker technologies have eased and potentiated genetic analysis of plants and have become an extremely useful tool in forest tree breeding. The information provided by molecular markers has made it possible to acquire further knowledge about the structure and organization of plant genomes as well as about the evolution of these plant geno...
Variation for K+ and Na+ accumulation at low salinities in hydroponic (water) culture were observed in shoots of different wheat species. Greater discrimination (in favour of K+ and against Na+ accumulation) was shown by hexaploid bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) than by tetraploid durum wheat (T. turgidum L.). Since Aegilops tauschii Cosson (A. ...

Individual differences in most behavioral and pharmacological responses to abused drugs are dependent on both genetic and environmental factors. The genetic influences on the complex phenotypes related to drug abuse have been difficult to study using classical genetic analyses. Quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping is a method that has been used s...

Alcohol dependence (alcoholism) is accompanied by evidence of tolerance, withdrawal (physiological dependence), or compulsive behavior related to alcohol use. Studies of strain and individual differences using animal models for acute physiological dependence liability are useful means to identify potential genetic determinants of liability in human...

Most evolutionarily and agriculturally important traits are affected by many genes (quantitative trait loci, or QTL) of relatively small effect. Usually the genetics of these traits are examined by indirect statistical analysis of the covariance among relatives, rather than by direct analyses. We use new analytical and molecular techniques to exami...

An intervarietal molecular-marker map was used for the detection of genomic regions influencing crossability between wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell) and rye (Secale cereale L.). Analysis of deviance and logistic marker-regression methods were conducted on data from doubled haploid lines from a cross between “Courtot” and “Chinese Spring”. A m...
