Abstract excerpt
Improving the efficiency of selection in conventional crossbreeding is a major priority in banana ( spp.) breeding. Routine application of classical marker assisted selection (MAS) is lagging in banana due to limitations in MAS tools. Genomic selection (GS) based on genomic prediction models can address some limitations of classical MAS, but the use of GS in banana has not been reported to date. The aim of this...
