| Abstract | Recent advances in genetic technologies have given researchers the ability to characterize genetic marker data for large germplasm collections. While some studies are able to capitalize on entire germplasm collections, others, especially those that focus on traits that are difficult to phenotype, instead focus on a subset of the collection. Typically, subsets are selected using phenotypic or geographic data. One major hurdle in identifying favorable subsets is selecting a criterion that can be used to quantify the value of a subset. This study compares two such criteria, polymorphism information content, and a new criterion based on kinship matrices, which will be called the mean of transformed kinships. These criteria were explored in terms of their ability to select subsets that are favorable for genome wide association studies, and in their ability to select subsets that contain a high number of rare phenotypes. Using phenotypic and genotypic data that has been amassed from the USDA Barley Core Collection, evidence was found to support the hypotheses that subsets based on the mean of transformed kinships were well-suited to select subsets intended for genome-wide association studies, but the same was not found for polymorphism information content. Inversely, evidence was found to support the hypothesis that subsets based on polymorphism information content were well-suited to select subsets intended for rare-phenotype discovery, but the same was not found for subsets selected using the mean of transformed kinships criterion. Tools to select subsets using these two criteria have been released in the R package “GeneticSubsetter.” |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
