• Molecular marker-assisted breeding options for maize improvement in Asia (2010, background): “…example of MAS for maize improvement, and of particular use to the developing world, is the utilization of opaque2specific SSR markers in conversion of maize lines into quality protein maize (QPM) lines with enhanced nutritional quality (Prasanna et al. 2001; Morris et al. 2003; Babu et al. 2005).”
• Quantitative trait loci for yield and correlated traits under high and low soil nitrogen conditions in tropical maize (2007, background): “…et al. 1996; Ribaut et al. 1996, 1997; Tuberosa et al. 2002), the benefit of using molecular markers in breeding programs has been evaluated (Morris et al. 2003) and marker-assisted selection experiments to improve grain yield under waterlimited conditions and low temperature have been…”
• Marker-Assisted Selection in Plant Breeding: From Publications to Practice (2008, background): “Preliminary studies in this area have been performed in the major cereals, including maize (Dreher et al., 2003; Morris et al., 2003) and wheat (Kuchel et al., 2005).”
• Genetic and Economic Analysis of a Targeted Marker-assisted Wheat Breeding Strategy (2005, background): “However, previous studies (Dreher et al. 2003; Morris et al. 2003) reporting the relative economic performance of a phenotypic and MAS strategy in maize indicated that the use of MAS could improve the rate of genetic gain, but was more expensive.”
• Money matters (I): costs of field and laboratory procedures associated with conventional and marker-assisted maize breeding at CIMMYT (2003, background): “The potential long-run time savings offered by this application of MAS—and the associated economic benefits—are addressed in a companion paper (see Morris et al. (2003)).”
• Phenotypic and genotypic analysis of drought-resistance traits for development of rice cultivars adapted to rainfed environments (2008, background): “(2) M arkers flanking the QTLs often lack polymorphism in the elite lines into which the QTLs need to be introgressed, and largescale genotyping is very costly (Morris et al., 2003; Tuberosa et al., 2003).”
• An introduction to markers, quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping and marker-assisted selection for crop improvement: The basic concepts (2005, background): “The use of additional markers to accelerate cultivar development is some-times referred to as ‘full MAS’ or ‘complete line conversion’ (Morris et al., 2003; Ribaut et al., 2002).”
• Biotechnology in the developing world: a case for increased investments in orphan crops (2004, background): “Morris et al. (2003) showed positive cost-benefit results of MAS, and there are many similar unpublished examples from the private sector.”
• Implementation of molecular markers for quantitative traits in breeding programs - challenges and opportunities (2004, background): “All four of these parameters can vary significantly between breeding projects…” (Morris et al. 2003).”
• Marker-assisted selection: an approach for precision plant breeding in the twenty-first century (2008, methodology): “Landmark papers by Dreher et al. (2003) and Morris et al. (2003) showed that the cost–benefit ratio of MAS will depend on several factors, such as the inheritance of the trait, the method of phenotypic evaluation, the cost of field and glasshouse trials and labour costs.”
• Progress and prospects of marker assisted backcrossing as a tool in crop breeding programs (2006, background): “breeding applications (Morris et al., 2003; Dreher et al., 2003).”
