Evaluation of methods and marker Systems in Genomic Selection of oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.)

Abstract Background Genomic selection (GS) uses genome-wide markers as an attempt to accelerate genetic gain in breeding programs of both animals and plants. This approach is particularly useful for perennial crops such as oil palm, which have long breeding cycles, and for which the optimal method f...
