How can you use “marker-assisted” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Despite the existence of substantial diversity among cultivated peanut genotypes for various morphological, physiological and agronomic traits, very little DNA variations had been detected by using protein- or DNA-based markers [ 15 16 17 18 19 ] . Because of the lack of polymorphism at DNA level, this crop has lagged behind in genetic mapping, marker-assisted selection, resistance gene cloning, and crop evolutionary study compared with other crops.
With high-throughput technologies and facilities, such as robotic, imaging, and computational sequencing and genotyping facilities, more reliable polymorphic markers will be used to construct a high resolution genetic map and marker-assisted selection or even map-based cloning will be realized before long in cultivated peanut.
By using a marker-assisted approach, it will provide a noninvasive road map to expedite the selective introgression of useful traits in the years ahead.
Information about DNA markers linked to QTLs represents a powerful diagnostic tool that enables a breeder to select for specific introgressions of interest, a technique referred to as “marker-assisted selection.”
