Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: Selection response in truncation selection across multiple sets of candidates hinges on their post-selection proportions, which can deviate grossly from their initial proportions. For BLUPs, using a uniform threshold for all candidates maximizes the selection response, irrespective of differences in population parameters. Plant breeding programs typically involve multiple families from either the...
