Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: A new approach is proposed for the use of the genetic markers to manage DUS trials, targeted at individual phenotypic characteristics using genomic prediction, as well for supporting Distinctness decisions. High-performing crop varieties underpin food security. Due to the cost of developing varieties, systems have been established to provide breeders with legal protection for their varieties. In many...
