Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Marker-assisted selection (MAS) and genomic selection (GS) based on genome-wide marker data provide powerful tools to predict the genotypic value of selection material in plant breeding. However, case-to-case optimization of these approaches is required to achieve maximum accuracy of prediction with reasonable input. RESULTS: Based on extended field evaluation data for grain yield, plant height,...
