• Pyramiding multiple genes for resistance to soybean mosaic virus in soybean using molecular markers (2008, background): “Breeders frequently face complex choices in designing efficient crosses and selection strategies aimed at combining desired genes into a single target genotype (Wang et al. 2007).”
• Genomic selection for durable stem rust resistance in wheat (2011, background): “MAS has been mostly limited to improving traits with MABC of major genes (Holland 2004), as introgression of many genes required to improve traits that are quantitatively inherited is not logistically feasible for most breeding programs ( Wang et al. 2007; Xu and Crouch 2008).”
• Marker-Assisted Selection in Plant Breeding: From Publications to Practice (2008, methodology): “To manipulate numbers of multiple genes or traits that are beyond the population sizes that are amenable to routine breeding programs, a two-stage two-generation selection strategy has been proposed by Bonnett et al. (2005) and simulated by Wang et al. (2007).”
• Marker-Assisted Plant Breeding: Principles and Practices (2015, background): “However, both MARS and F2 enrichment schemes are useful in fixation of favorable alleles of up to 9–12 QTLs in the homozygous lines developed from the selected materials (Wang et al. 2007).”
• Wheat genetic resources enhancement by the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT) (2008, methodology): “…to study the effects on selection of dominance and epistasis (Wang et al. 2004), to predict cross performance using known gene information (Wang et al. 2005), and to optimize marker-assisted selection to efficient pyramid multiple genes (Kuchel et al. 2005; Wang et al. 2007a, b; Ye et al. 2007).”
• Molecular Markers and Selection for Complex Traits in Plants: Learning from the Last 20 Years (2008, background): “A second round of enrichment at a later inbreeding generation may be performed to further increase the frequency of Qi, but studies suggest little added advantage in culling F3 or F4 plants with the qiqi genotype at any of the QTL (Wang et al., 2007).”
• Marker-assisted wheat breeding: present status and future possibilities (2010, background): “It was also shown that a second round of culling lines with inferior alleles in a later generation (F3 or F4) had little advantage in the F2 enrichment approach (Wang et al. 2007).”
