Forest tree breeding has been successful at delivering genetically improved material for
multiple traits based on recurrent cycles of selection, mating, and testing. However, long …

The breeding of forest trees is only a few decades old, and is a much more complicated,
longer, and expensive endeavor than the breeding of agricultural crops. One breeding cycle …

Genotype by environment interaction (G× E) refers to the comparative performances of
genotypes differing among environments, representing differences in genotype rankings or …

Plantation‐grown trees have to cope with an increasing pressure of pest and disease in the
context of climate change, and breeding approaches using genomics may offer efficient and …

Background Genomic selection (GS) uses information from genomic signatures consisting of
thousands of genetic markers to predict complex traits. As such, GS represents a promising …

Background Genomic prediction is a genomics assisted breeding methodology that can
increase genetic gains by accelerating the breeding cycle and potentially improving the …

Background Genomic selection (GS) can increase genetic gain by reducing the length of
breeding cycle in forest trees. Here we genotyped 1370 control-pollinated progeny trees …

Intersec, the leading trade fair for safety, security and fire protection returns to Dubai at a
time when the commercial security market alone is forecast to grow by 16% to 2025. With …

We report a genomic selection (GS) study of growth and wood quality traits in an outbred F 2
hybrid Eucalyptus population (n= 768) using high-density single-nucleotide polymorphism …

Background Genomic selection (GS) is a promising approach for decreasing breeding cycle
length in forest trees. Assessment of progeny performance and of the prediction accuracy of …
