Genomic prediction in early selection stages using multi-year data in a hybrid rye breeding program

Abstract Background The use of multiple genetic backgrounds across years is appealing for genomic prediction (GP) because past years’ data provide valuable information on marker effects. Nonetheless, single-year GP models are less complex and computationally less demanding than multi-year GP models....
