Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: Fusarium head blight and Septoria tritici blotch resistances are complex traits and can be improved efficiently by genomic selection modeling main and epistatic effects. Enhancing the resistance against Fusarium head blight (FHB) and Septoria tritici blotch (STB) is of central importance for a sustainable wheat production. Our study is based on a large experimental data set of 2325 inbred lines...
