Unlocking genome-based prediction and selection in conifers: the key role of within-family prediction accuracy illustrated in maritime pine (Pinus pinaster Ait.)

Abstract Key message Based on experimental and simulated data for maritime pine (Pinus pinaster Ait.) in a genomic selection context, our study reveals that the often-highlighted equivalence between genome-based and pedigree-based prediction accuracies of breeding values is associated with a zero ac...
