Screening techniques and sources of resistance against parasitic weeds in grain legumes (2006, background): “Validated CG for QTL will provide efficient molecular markers since recombination between markers and QTLs would be absent (Pflieger et al., 2001).”
Landscape Genomics: Understanding Relationships Between Environmental Heterogeneity and Genomic Characteristics of Populations (2017, background): “The candidate loci can be chosen because of the homology with genes of known function in other species, proximity to the genomic region associated with a phenotype, because of the function predicted from its sequence, or from studies of mutants (Pflieger et al. 2001; Rellstab et al. 2015).”
Photorespiration (2017, methodology): “Photorespiratory mutants from crop plants like Pisum sativum [36], Nicotiana sylvestris [37], Solanum tuberosum [38], and Oryza sativa [39] confirmed the essential role for the metabolism of C3 plants.”
Achievements and Challenges in Improving Temperate Perennial Forage Legumes (2015, background): “A focused list of candidate genes can be developed by examining commonalities from the literature, expression or mutant analyses, and QTL studies (Pflieger et al., 2001).”
Molecular Markers and Selection for Complex Traits in Plants: Learning from the Last 20 Years (2008, background): “Furthermore, QTL mapping has served as a springboard for the discovery of the underlying genes through map-based cloning of QTL (Frary et al., 2000), candidate-gene analysis (Pfl ieger et al., 2001), or comparative mapping (Paterson et al., 1995) (Fig.”
Genomic selection in forest tree breeding: the concept and an outlook to the future (2014, background): “The basic concept of CG is to associate polymorphisms in known (sequenced) genes to phenotypes (Pflieger et al. 2001).”

QTLs associated with tolerance of flooding during germination in rice (Oryza sativa L.) (2010, background): “Some issues also tend to compromise the reliability of genetic maps when the overall number of available recombination events in the reference pedigrees is not sufficient for obtaining accurate estimates of genetic distances between closely linked marker loci, resulting in misspecification during th”
Faba bean breeding for resistance against biotic stresses: Towards application of marker technology (2006, background): “If genome structures are highly conserved, candidate genes in the model species corresponding to loci mapped in the agronomically important species can be quickly identified (Pflieger et al., 2001; Gao et al., 2004).”
The genetic dissection of quantitative traits in crops (2010, background): “The use of gene sequences derived from expressed sequence tags (ESTs) or gene analogues, described as the ‘candidate gene approach’, holds promise in identifying the actual genes that control the desired traits (Yamamoto and Sasaki, 1997; Cato et al. 2001; Pflieger et al. 2001).”
An introduction to markers, quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping and marker-assisted selection for crop improvement: The basic concepts (2005, methodology): “The use of gene sequences derived from ESTs or gene analogues, described as the ‘candidate gene approach,’ holds much promise in identifying the actual genes that control the desired traits (Cato et al., 2001; Pflieger et al., 2001; Yamamoto & Sasaki, 1997).”
