Despite being a species with great potential for biodiesel production, little research has
been done on the breeding of Jatropha curcas, mainly with respect to its yield across …

Multiple-trait model tends to be the best alternative for the analysis of repeated measures,
since they consider the genetic and residual correlations between measures and improve …

Despite its numerous important traits for biodiesel production, little research exists on the
Jatropha curcas crop, mainly with respect to repeated measures over time (crop years). The …

Combining longitudinal data and statistical models from perennial crops enabled us to
estimate the optimum number of measures (harvests), implying accurate discrimination of …
