Computer simulation to guide choice of breeding strategies for maker-aided multiple trait integration in maize
… in the chromosomal proximity to the event (i.e. linkage drag). Setting a defined lower limit of 96.66% recurrent parent (RP) germplasm recovery (i.e. ≤ 120 cM non-recurrent parent germplasm), conversion for 15 events requires the final selections in Single Event Introgression to have < 8 cM total …

Agronomic, quality, and genetic analysis of the Rht18 semi-dwarfing gene in a Canadian Western Red Spring Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) background
… to stem lodging and harvest index without major linkage drag of agronomic and quality traits.

Capturing Photosynthetic Traits from the Progenitors of Wheat
… was observed in the progeny associated with linkage drag from the wild progenitors. The progenitor individuals had higher CO2 assimilation per ear than cultivated bread wheat, most likely driven by awn presence. These findings led to an investigation of how awn presence influences ear and …

The effect of temperature stress on recombination in barley
… challenges that it faces, such as the effect of linkage drag. Plant breeding could benefit from controlling meiotic recombination in many ways, as increasing the crossover (CO) frequency and changing CO distribution would help to break up current linkage blocks, which could facilitate …

Using targeted phenomics and environmental proxies to understand Phytophthora medicaginis and Phytophthora root rot resistance in Australian chickpea
… with undesirable traits due to genetic linkage drag. Understanding the mechanisms involved in waterlogging tolerance and PRR resistance traits is necessary to determine if they can be uncoupled from poor agronomic traits when breeding improved varieties. The aims of this research were …
