A new method to estimate genetic gain in annual crops
The genetic gain obtained by breeding programs to improve quantitative traits may be estimated by using data from regional trials. A new statistical method for this estimate is proposed and includes four steps: a) joint analysis of regional trial data using a generalized linear model to obtain adjus...
