Abstract
There is a limit to the capacity of any breeding program, and the more crosses that are made, the, smaller
The size of each cross. The theory of the optimum number of crosses in inbreeding crops is bristly Reviewed. The theory is unsatisfactory in determining the optimum number of crosses, but models that Take linkage into…

Abstract
Different aspects of cassava cultivation in the Dominican Republic are described, namely edaphoclimatic regions, production, trade, consumption, production systems, var., and uses. Production constraints include inadequate land preparation, limited use of recommended agronomic practices, diseases and pests, var. mixtures, and limited use of var. adapted to regional…

Abstract
Different aspects of cassava cultivation in Ecuador are described, namely agroclimatic regions, climate, soils, production areas, production systems, main var. grown in production zones, and uses. Among the main production constraints are the irregular rainfall patterns, the lack of marketing studies, and inadequate transfer of technology. The Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones…

Statistical models for the detection of genes controlling quantitative trait loci expression
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/82010
Abstract
Many important traits in plant breeding exhibit continuous variation (yield, maturity, biotic and abiotic stress tolerance, etc.). The genetic principles underlying their inheritance are basically the same as those affecting Mendelian or qualitative traits, but since the segregation of the genes concerned could be followed…
