Abstract excerpt
A method for marker-assisted selection (MAS) based on quantitative trait loci (QTLs) with epistatic effects is proposed. The efficiency of such method is investigated by simulations under a wide range of situations. In the presence of epistasis, MAS generally yields longer persistence response than that based exclusively on additive or additive and dominance. Neglecting epistasis could result in considerable loss...
