Abstract

Recent advances in gene pyrimiding with special reference to rice (Oryza sativa L.)

The improvement of sub-atomic hereditary qualities and related innovation like MAS has prompted the rise of another field in plant rearing quality pyramiding (IRRI).The term gene pyramiding is used in agricultural research to describe a breeding approach to achieve pest control and higher crop yield. Quality pyramiding focuses on the determination of an ideal genotype that is homozygous for the good alleles at all n-loci. Molecular markers aid in selecting the best plants with which to proceed.
