Marker assisted whole genome selection in crop improvementSenthil Natesan
Mapping and tagging of agriculturally important genes have been greatly facilitated by an array of molecular markers in crop plants. Marker-assisted selection (MAS) is gaining considerable importance as it would improve the efficiency of plant breeding through precise transfer of genomic regions of interest (foreground selection) and accelerating the recovery of the recurrent parent genome (background selection). MAS has been more widely employed for simply inherited traits than for polygenic traits, although there are a few success stories in improving quantitative traits through MAS
Marker assisted selection or marker aided selection is an indirect selection process where a trait of interest is selected based on a marker linked to a trait of interest, rather than on the trait itself. This process has been extensively researched and proposed for plant and animal breeding.Marker-assisted breeding uses DNA markers associated with desirable traits to select a plant or animal for inclusion in a breeding program early in its development. ... This genetic test is helping breeders to select for hornless cattle, which makes it safer for the animals themselves and the people handling them.
QTL is a gene or the chromosomal region that affects a quantitative trait, which should be polymorphic (have allelic variation) to have an effect in a population, must be linked to a polymorphic marker allele to be detected. The QTL mapping consists of 4 steps, like the development of mapping population, generation of polymorphic marker data set among the parents, construction of linkage map, and finally the QTL analysis
All the above steps are described in these slides very briefly along with two case studies.

Marker Assisted Selection in Crop BreedingPawan Chauhan
Marker Assisted Selection is a value addition to conventional methods of Crop Breeding. It has been gaining importance in plant breeding with new generation of plant breeders and to get accurate and fast desired result from plant breeding.
Role of molecular marker play a significant supplementary role in enhancing yield along with conventional plant breeding methods. the result obtain through molecular method are more accurate and at genotypic level. It had wider applications in field of plant breeding, biotechnology, physiology, pathology, entamology, etc. The mapping information obtained from these markers had created a revolution in the sequencing sector and open many pathways for developments, innovations and research.
Process whereby a marker is used for indirect selection of a genetic determinant or determinants of a trait of interest (i.e. productivity, disease resistance, abiotic stress tolerance, and/or quality).
Trait of interest is selected not based on the trait itself but on a marker linked to it.
The assumption is that linked allele associates with the gene and/or quantitative trait locus (QTL) of interest. MAS can be useful for traits that are difficult to measure, exhibit low heritability, and/or are expressed late in development.
Pre-Requisites: Two pre-requisites for marker assisted selection are: (i) a tight linkage between molecular marker and gene of interest, and (ii) high heritability of the gene of interest.
Markers Used: The most commonly used molecular markers include amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLP), restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP), random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), simple sequence repeats (SSR) or micro satellites, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP), etc. The use of molecular markers differs from species to species also.
Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) was applied to generate species-specific diagnostic fragment patterns for the molecular identification of the ornamental aquarium fish species Trichogaster lalia, more commonly known as dwarf gourami. The species were collected from various geographically distant locations of Assam. After initial screening, four primers having a length of 10 arbitary nucleotide sequence were used which generated the RAPD profile for Trichogaster species. The primers produced 39 bands in total. In the experiment 22 polymorphic bands and 7 monomorphic bands were produced. The genetic distance of an individual ranged from 0.03 to 0.38. The average genetic distance among the individuals showed that more than 0.03 species are genetically more similar
this is a presentation on molecular markers that include what is molecular marker, it's types, biochemical markets (alloenzyme), it's classification, data analysis and it's applications

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

14. Assessment and conclusions of the MAS on Rm2 gene
10 markers were identified as good candidates for MAS on Rm2 gene from the (‘Pamirskij 5’

733 plants, coming from 6 populations, were genotyped with 2 markers selected among the
10 initially identified on the PR2 genetic map.
Sample processing by LGC Genomics (extraction and genotyping) was fast enough (a few
days) and the data we received were of good quality (few missing data).
The validation results with a test of resistance to the aphid on the 733 tested plants showed
about 90% of reliability (mismatch probably due to problems with phenotyping and/or leaf
sampling)
