Author:Eatwell, KA; Verryn, SD; Roux, CZ; Geerthsen, PJMDate:2011Collinearity potentially has a negative impact on the prediction of genetic gains in tree breeding programs. This study investigated the reliability and impact of best linear unbiased prediction (BLUP) using various collinearity mitigation ...Read more
Author:Verryn, SD; Snedden, CL; Eatwell, KADate:Jun 2009Tree breeders attempt to predict the genetic gains that are likely to be achieved through selection and breeding of new generations, using stochastic or deterministic modelling. There are many factors that may cause a discrepancy between the ...Read more
