  2. Methylsulfonylmethane - Wikipedia

    The designation allows MSM to be added to processed foods. [15] The LD 50 of MSM is greater than 17.5 grams per kilogram of body weight. [16] Extensive research in animal models indicates MSM has a very low toxicity when administered both orally and topically. [17] [18] [19] MSM is considered 'Possibly Safe' at therapeutic doses. [13] [20]

  3. Coefficient of inbreeding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_inbreeding

    In this pedigree chart, G is the progeny of C and F, and C is the biological uncle of F. To find the coefficient of inbreeding of G, first locate a loop that leads from G to the common ancestor through one parent and back down to the other parent without going through the same individual twice. There are only two such loops in this chart, as ...

  4. Breeder (cellular automaton) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breeder_(cellular_automaton)

    Evolution of an MSM breeder – a puffer that produces Gosper guns, which in turn emit gliders.. In cellular automata such as Conway's Game of Life, a breeder is a pattern that exhibits quadratic growth, by generating multiple copies of a secondary pattern, each of which then generates multiple copies of a tertiary pattern.

    The Punnett square is a square diagram that is used to predict the genotypes of a particular cross or breeding experiment. ... Online Punnett Square Calculator ...

  6. Progeny testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progeny_testing

    Usually, the breeding companies conduct progeny testing of their bulls so that they can be commercially promoted. But when the breeding organisations are Government controlled (e.g. India), the onus of conducting the testing also lies with them if required genetic improvement is to be achieved.

  7. Animal breeding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_breeding

    Animal breeding is a branch of animal science that addresses the evaluation (using best linear unbiased prediction and other methods) of the genetic value (estimated breeding value, EBV) of livestock. Selecting for breeding animals with superior EBV in growth rate, egg, meat, milk, or wool production, or with other desirable traits has ...

  8. Mutation breeding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutation_breeding

    Mutation breeding, sometimes referred to as "variation breeding", is the process of exposing seeds to chemicals, radiation, or enzymes [1] [2] in order to generate mutants with desirable traits to be bred with other cultivars. Plants created using mutagenesis are sometimes called mutagenic plants or mutagenic seeds.

  9. Minimum viable population - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_viable_population

    Minimum viable population (MVP) is a lower bound on the population of a species, such that it can survive in the wild. This term is commonly used in the fields of biology, ecology, and conservation biology.
