How can you use “backcross” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

A mapping population consisting of 1,308 backcross (BC
For a normally distributed phenotype, 75 parameter combinations for the backcross were examined.
Using restriction-length-fragment polymorphism (RFLP) and RFLP-derived cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (CAPS) markers (Figure 1) based on previously published tomato genetic and RFLP maps [ 8], initial studies mapped the dgt locus to a region of around 0.8 cM near the bottom of the long arm of tomato chromosome 1. Of 1,308 backcross (BC 1 ) individuals screened, 10 plants were determined to be recombinant between markers TG269 and CT190, whereas no plants were found to be recombinant between TG389 and dgt (Figure 1).
For the binomial phenotype with a backcross design, sample size of 100, the 100 parameter combinations examined resulted in 34 showing no difference in statistical power between the intersection test and the two marker test ( i.e , the value of the difference was exactly zero), 39 favoring the intersection test, and 27 favoring the two marker test.
When both genetic variance and recombination load are considered together, a set of 100 RI strains should be approximately four times as effective (precise) for mapping complex traits as an F2, and eight times as effective as a backcross.
