PROCESS FOR RAPIDLY SELECTING ANIMAL OR VEGETABLE SPECIES, VARIETIES, PEDIGREES OR INDIVIDUALS FOR ANY GENETIC CHARACTER

摘要

It consists in applying statistical image analysis of cell nuclei and of the chromatin surface to the estimation of genetic information. This genetic information is contained among the parameters of morphology, densitometry, texture of the chromatin and colour. The method also entails a step of multiparametric analysis enabling the most discriminating vectors, leading to the establishment of a selection index, to be determined. This method finds applications in the selection of animal species and plant species.
