Comparison of genomic selection models for exploring predictive ability of complex traits in breeding programs

Abstract Traits with a complex unknown genetic architecture are common in breeding programs. However, they pose a challenge for selection due to a combination of complex environmental and pleiotropic effects that impede the ability to create mapping populations to characterize the trait's genet...
