Accelerating wheat breeding for end‐use quality through association mapping and multivariate genomic prediction

Abstract In hard‐winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) breeding, the evaluation of end‐use quality is expensive and time‐consuming, being relegated to the final stages of the breeding program after selection for many traits including disease resistance, agronomic performance, and grain yield. In this...
