Prediction of Means and Variances of Crosses With Genome-Wide Marker Effects in Barley

Background: The expected genetic variance is an important criterion for the selection of crossing partners which will produce superior combinations of genotypes in their progeny. The advent of molecular markers has opened up new vistas for obtaining precise predictors for the genetic variance of a c...
