Molecular Breeding
Molecular breeding is an important tool for the improvement of many plants and animals. It involves genetic manipulation at the DNA level to enhance traits in plants and animals. Common applications include genome selection, marker-assisted selection, QTL mapping or gene discovery, and genetic engineering and transformation.
Sequencing technology have been widely used in the construction of species genome maps. Besides, resequencing, transcriptome sequencing, comparative genome analysis and other technologies developed based on sequencing technology have also been applied to the mining of molecular markers of important agronomic traits. With continuous reduction of the cost of sequencing nowadays, sequencing technology has also begun to be widely used in molecular breeding to improve breeding efficiency and allow for faster breeding cycles.
