Genomic selection of parents and crosses beyond the native gene pool of a breeding program

Abstract Genomic selection has become a valuable tool for selecting cultivar candidates in many plant breeding programs. Genomic selection of elite parents and crossing combinations with germplasm developed outside a breeding program has, however, hardly been explored until now. The aim of this stud...
