  1. Supplementing the studbook. Using genetic analysis to complement a captive breeding programme of an endangered primate, Hylobates moloch.

    Stanbury, KatherineUniversity of Essex2015

    Genetic analysis of animals involved in captive breeding and reintroduction programmes can provide valuable information to aid in maintaining wild type genotypes and genetic variability. Hylobates moloch, also referred to as the silvery gibbon, is an Endangered primate species endemic to the …

  2. The effects of novel genetic diversity on yield and yield traits in a hybrid wheat pre-breeding programme

    Argirou, YeorgiaUniversity of Cambridge2023

    Hybrid breeding, where two inbred lines are crossed to create superior F1 plants, has the potential to increase yield and yield stability in wheat. However, commercialisation of hybrid wheat is limited by high production costs but could be offset by increasing the yield. Introducing new diversity …

    Fradgley, NicholasUniversity of Cambridge2022

    … baking quality in collaboration with the DSV UK breeding programme. A wheat multi-parent advanced generation intercross population was used to investigate the genetic control of multiple wheat quality and micronutrient traits. This analysis identified multiple quantitative trait loci (QTL) with …

  6. The reintroduction of bearded vultures in South Africa: a feasibility analysis

    Brink, Christiaan WillemPercy FitzPatrick Institute of African Ornithology2016

    … Various release strategies ranging from captive breeding prioritization to release prioritization were modelled using stochastic modelling software. Results indicated that straight releases, without any captive breeding support, had a high probability of failure (defined <34 individuals) ranging …

    … or as the parents of new hybrid cultivars in breeding programme were used. Among the 20 asparagus genotypes tested, ASC 26, ASC 69 and CRD 168 were all highly amenable to cell culture as indicated by high callus initiation growth in both dark and light conditions. Some genotypes did not form …
