| Abstract | Although molecular markers allow more accurate selection in early generations than conventional screens, large numbers can make selection impracticable while screening in later generations may provide little or no advantage over conventional selection techniques. Investigation of different crossing strategies and consideration of when to screen, what proportion to retain and the impacts of dominant vs. codominant marker expression revealed important choices in the design of marker-assisted selection programs that can produce large efficiency gains. Using F$_{2}$ enrichment increased the frequency of selected alleles allowing large reductions in minimum population size for recovery of target genotypes (commonly around 90%) and/or selection at a greater number of loci. Increasing homozygosity by inbreeding from F$_{2}$ to F$_{2:3}$ also reduced population size by around 90% in some crosses with smaller incremental reductions in subsequent generations. Backcrossing was found to be a useful strategy to reduce population size compared with a biparental population where one parent contributed more target alleles than the other and was complementary to F$_{2}$ enrichment and increasing homozygosity. Codominant markers removed the need for progeny testing reducing the number of individuals that had to be screened to identify a target genotype. However, although codominant markers allow target alleles to be fixed in early generations, minimum population sizes are often so large in F$_{2}$ that it is not efficient to do so at this stage. Formulae and tables for calculating genotypic frequencies and minimum population sizes are provided to allow extension to different breeding systems, numbers of target loci, and probabilities of failure. Principles outlined are applicable to implementation of markers for both quantitative trait loci (QTL) and major genes. |

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.
