Evaluation of the efficiency of genomic versus pedigree predictions for growth and wood quality traits in Scots pine

Abstract Background Genomic selection (GS) or genomic prediction is a promising approach for tree breeding to obtain higher genetic gains by shortening time of progeny testing in breeding programs. As proof-of-concept for Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.), a genomic prediction study was conducted wit...
