Human chromosome (Chr) 18(HSA 18) contains approximately 85 million base pains of DNA. Thirty genes and pseudogenes have been mapped to HSA 18 by somatic cell genetics or in situ hybridization. Two bovine genes - Yamaguchi sacroma viral oncogene homology 1 (YESI) and desmocollin type 1 (DSC1) - h...

The triploid nature of plantain and its pattern of inheritance should have represented a challenge and an incentive for geneticists. However, few genetic and cytological investigations have been done in Musa spp. Both banana and plantain have been ignored and neglected as material for basic genet...
The triploid genome of plantain (Musa spp., AA group) has been considered intractable to genetic improvement because of the production of putatively homogeneous 2n (= 3.r) gametes. Plantain breeding schemes have been based on the hybridization of 2n megaspores from the triploid plantain and haplo...

A preliminary search for QTLs in a cattle F2 resource populations segregating for trypanotolerance has revealed three large candidate chromosomal regions (Bta02, Bta05, Bta07). In order to narrow down the position of the trypanotolerant QTLs, we are building comparative chromosomal maps between c...

Spontaneous sexual and asexual polyploids occur in cassava. The cassava polyploid breeding strategies using these polyploidization processes are discussed. Sexual polyploidization has advantages over asexual polyploidization in terms of viability of gametes, heterosis, vigor, plant architecture, ...
Plantain and banana (Musa spp) breeding involves crossing 3x (triploid) landraces to 2x (diploid) accessions as female and male parents, respectively, selecting 4x (tetraploid) and 2x primary hybrids from the 3x - 2x progenies, and crossing 4x - 2x hybrids to produce secondary 3x hybrids. In thes...
Two essentials for breeding new cultivars of Brachiaria are germplasm diversity and information on basic biological aspects of major species. This paper reviews current knowledge on the cytological behavior, mode of reproduction and its inheritance, and crossing compatibility of different species...

Oligo painting FISH was established to identify all chromosomes in banana (Musa spp.) and to anchor pseudomolecules of reference genome sequence of Musa acuminata spp. malaccensis “DH Pahang” to individual chromosomes in situ. A total of 19 chromosome/chromosome-arm specific oligo painting probes...
