MateR: a novel genomic mating framework.

Abstract excerpt

Genomic mating uses genome-wide information to design crosses that maximize genetic gain while managing diversity. Expected gain is often predicted through the usefulness criterion, which depends on family means and variances. However, existing equations mix incompatible parameterizations when considering dominance effects. Furthermore, diversity control is often tuned with metrics that lack a direct link to the...
