Rapid Cycling Genomic Selection in a Multiparental Tropical Maize Population

Rapid Cycling Genomic Selection in a Multiparental Tropical Maize Population

Genomic selection (GS) increases genetic gain by reducing the length of the selection cycle, as has been exemplified in maize using rapid cycling recombination of biparental populations. However, no results of GS applied to maize multi-parental populations have been reported so far. This study is th...
