A look-ahead Monte Carlo simulation method for improving parental selection in trait introgression

Abstract Multiple trait introgression is the process by which multiple desirable traits are converted from a donor to a recipient cultivar through backcrossing and selfing. The goal of this procedure is to recover all the attributes of the recipient cultivar, with the addition of the specified desir...
