Accuracy of Genomic Selection in a Rice Synthetic Population Developed for Recurrent Selection Breeding.

Genomic selection (GS) is a promising strategy for enhancing genetic gain. We investigated the accuracy of genomic estimated breeding values (GEBV) in four inter-related synthetic populations that underwent several cycles of recurrent selection in an upland rice-breeding program. A total of 343 S2:4...
