Abstract excerpt
This study aimed to enhance the efficiency of genomic prediction for pulpwood-related traits in slash pine (Pinus elliottii Engelm. var. elliottii) by integrating genome-wide association study (GWAS) information with genomic selection (GS). We evaluated 12 traits related to growth, fiber, and wood chemical composition in a population of 340 individuals genotyped with 319,286 high-quality SNPs, comparing the...
