Stacked ensembles on basis of parentage information can predict hybrid performance with an accuracy comparable to marker-based GBLUP

Testcross factorials in newly established hybrid breeding programs are often highly unbalanced, incomplete, and characterized by predominance of special combining ability (SCA) over general combining ability (GCA). This results in a low efficiency of GCA-based selection. Machine learning algorithms...
