Growth involves cell expansion and cell division. Cell division depends on hormonal and metabolic processes. Cell expansion occurs because cell walls are extensible, meaning they deform under the action of tensile forces, generally caused by turgor. There is increasing interest in understanding the genetic basis of vigor and biomass production. It is well established that growth and vigor are quantitative traits and their genetic architecture consists of a big number of genes with small individual effects. The search for groups of genes with small individual effects, which control a specific quantitative trait, is performed by QTL analysis and genetic mapping. Today, several linkage maps are available, like “Syrah” × “grenache,” “Riesling” × “Cabernet Sauvignon,” and “Ramsey” × Vitis riparia . This last progeny segregates for vigor and constituted an interesting tool for our genetic studies on growth.","PeriodicalId":325094,"journal":{"name":"Integrated View of Population Genetics","volume":"97 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130968341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The population genetics is also the basis of evolution, and it has been established as a science; its main founders were JBS Haldane, Sir Ronald Fisher, and Sewall Wright. Since 1966, from the pioneering work of Fisher, Haldane, and Wright, the population genetics had accumulated a large mathematical theory, statistical tools, laboratory techniques, molecular markers, and huge information of polymorphisms in databanks [1]. The main concept in population genetics is focused on the Hardy-Weinberg theorem (also known as Hardy-Weinberg theorem or Hardy-Weinberg law). This central theorem preconizes that if the population size is large, with random mating, and mutation, selection, and migration are not significant, the allelic frequencies do not change over the generations. If not, the allelic and genotype frequencies will change from one generation to the next. These changes can affect directly in population’s adaptive fitness, so information for applied studies and decisions can be provided by accessing the genetic variation in populations.","PeriodicalId":325094,"journal":{"name":"Integrated View of Population Genetics","volume":"897 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116389815","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
