Sentences with phrase «as backcrossing»

This process — known as backcrossing — helps to remove the influence of any other genetic differences.

Not exact matches

A new study now finds, that backcrossing of the genetically engineered Golden Rice, with the Indian mega rice variety Swarna, leads to morphological changes such as pale green leaves, a reduced plant height and a drastic reduction in yield.

Some closely related species interbreed where their ranges overlap, producing hybrid offspring that can even backcross with either parent species, until a whole population of mixed - species birds forms in the area and creates what's known as a «hybrid zone.»

A well - known breeding technique called backcrossing has become far more potent recently, as markers have allowed scientists to locate rare offspring that retain only the desired — and now detectable — genes from orphan crops.

With molecular backcrossing, Mackill, Ronald and their many colleagues were then able to breed this overexpressed gene into rice already popular in India, such as the legendary Swarna variety.

Some closely related species interbreed where their ranges overlap, producing hybrid offspring that can backcross with either parent species, until a whole population of mixed - species birds forms in the area and creates what's known as a «hybrid zone.»

For bulked segregant analysis, bsl1 - 1 plants were backcrossed to the reference line A10.1 as the pollen parent.

We can not rule out the influence of other SNPs fixed in the mutant populations on seemingly unrelated phenotypes, such as the elongated panicle phenotype displayed by bsl1 - 2 (Figure 1B), since several rounds of backcrossing were not performed.

(8) Imputation of these results specifically to the animals» age - related, low - BubR1 - driven rise in p16Ink4a - expressing senescent cells was, however, limited: limited by the very nature of so - called «accelerated aging» models such as BubR1H / H, (9) and limited by the lifelong, global absence of p16Ink4a expression in the backcrossed mice.

The technical evaluation of projects may require the provision of additional data such as information on the genetic modification of your mutant mouse line if applicable (e.g. affected gene, MGI ID of the gene, type of mutation, ES - cell line used, genetic background (e.g. number of backcross generations), safety level, description of DNA modification, vector, remaining non-recipient DNA, donor organism), mutant phenotype (s), special housing or care requirements, current sanitary status, and intellectual property rights (who generated the mouse line, owner of the mouse line)

She noted that those «backcrossed» dogs, which have been registered as Dalmatians with the United Kennel Club in the United States, offer a valuable resource for correcting the genetic defect that results in the elevated uric acid trait in the Dalmatian breed.

There are also other variations such as F1b (Backcross generation), F2b generation (Second backcross generation) and Multigen, but you'll get the geneBackcross generation), F2b generation (Second backcross generation) and Multigen, but you'll get the genebackcross generation) and Multigen, but you'll get the general idea.
