Multiple economic traits

Understanding the underlying pleiotropic relationships among quantitative traits is necessary in order to predict correlated responses to artificial selection. The availability of large-scale next-generation sequence data in cattle has provided an opportunity to examine whether pleiotropy is responsible for overlapping QTL in multiple economic traits.

The intramuscular fat content (IMF) refers to the amount of fat within muscles, including the sum of phospholipids mainly found in cell membranes, triglycerides and cholesterol, and is determined both by hyperplasia and hypertrophy of adipocyte during the development of pigs. The IMF content is an important economic trait that is genetically controlled by multiple genes.

Domestication and centuries of selective breeding have changed genomes of sheep breeds to respond to environmental challenges and human needs. The genomes of local breeds, therefore, are valuable sources of genomic variants to be used to understand mechanisms of response to adaptation and artificial selection.

Scatophagus argus is a popular farmed fish in several countries of Southeast Asia, including China. Although S. argus has a highly promising economic value, a significant lag of breeding research severely obstructs the sustainable development of aquaculture industry. As one of the most important economic traits, growth traits are controlled by multiple gene loci called quantitative trait loci (QTLs).

Functional attributes of psychrotolerant rhizobacteria from wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) rhizoshpere
Bioinoculants for the improvement of micronutrient deficiency is promising due to its ecological, economic, and eco-friendly nature. So, keeping this in view present study deals with the characterization of low temperature tolerant rhizobacterial isolates for their multiple plant growth promoting traits at low temperature from the rhizosphere of wheat crop.
