The document summarizes efforts to develop common bean varieties in Rwanda resistant to Bean Common Mosaic Necrotic Virus (BCMNV) using Marker Assisted Selection (MAS). Researchers screened 219 bean varieties and identified genes conferring resistance. They developed 86 breeding lines by crossing donor lines containing resistance genes with local varieties. These lines were selected using linked markers and for resistance to BCMNV and other diseases. Participatory plant breeding involved farmers in selection. The integration of conventional breeding and MAS was successful in pyramiding resistance genes and developing lines adapted to Rwanda.

Rice breeding is both challenged and benefited by the fact that a successful varietal improvement program must embrace both the integration single genes that segregate in a simple Mendelian fashion as well as complex traits that are inherited in more quantitative ways. For decades the rice genetics community has produced a wealth of knowledge about these single genes and has developed markers that allow a breeder to track them in a population. However, marker assisted selection (MAS) alone is insufficient to drive the rates of genetic gain for more complex traits that are equally necessary. This presentation will describe the attempts made in the Favorable Environments Breeding program at IRRI to integrate the selection for single genes appropriate for MAS into a more complex population improvement strategy designed to improve quantitatively inherited traits.
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.

Within the last twenty years, molecular biology has revolutionized conventional breeding techniques in all areas. Biochemical and Molecular techniques have shortened the duration of breeding programs from years to months, weeks, or eliminated the need for them all together. The use of molecular markers in conventional breeding techniques has also improved the accuracy of crosses and allowed breeders to produce strains with combined traits that were impossible before the advent of DNA technology
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

DNA testing has become the "gold standard" of forensics, but linking an item of evidence to a person of interest isn't always clear cut. New open source tools allow DNA analysts to give statistical weight to evidentiary profiles that were previously unusable, letting juries weigh the evidence for themselves. This talk will discuss the Lab Retriever software package for probabilistic genotyping.

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.
