Genomic Selection for Fruit Quality Traits in Apple (Malus×domestica Borkh.)
- S. Kumar, D. Chagné, M. Bink, R. Volz, Claire Whitworth, C. Carlisle
- Biology, Medicine
- PloS one
- 4 May 2012
The genome sequence of apple (Malus×domestica Borkh.) was published more than a year ago, which helped develop an 8K SNP chip to assist in implementing genomic selection (GS). In apple breeding… Expand

A high density genetic map of maritime pine based on AFLPs
- D. Chagné, C. Lalanne, +9 authors C. Plomion
- Biology
- 1 July 2002
We constructed a high-density linkage map of maritime pine (Pinus pinaster Ait.) based on AFLP (Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism) markers using a three-generation outbred pedigree. In a first… Expand
Brownian dynamics simulations of flexible polymers with spring-spring repulsions
We develop a method which incorporates spring–spring repulsions into Brownian dynamics simulations of flexible polymers. The distance of closest approach between two springs is computed, and a… Expand
