Abstract excerpt
Parental selection is perhaps the most critical decision a breeder makes, establishing the foundation of the entire program for years to come. Cross selection based on predicted mean and genetic variance can be further expanded to multiple-trait improvement by predicting the genetic correlation ( r G ) between pairs of traits. Our objective was to empirically assess the ability to predict the family mean, genetic...
