Accelerating forest tree breeding by integrating genomic selection and greenhouse phenotyping

Abstract Breeding forest species can be a costly and slow process because of the extensive areas needed for field trials and the long periods (e.g., five years) that are required to measure economically and environmentally relevant phenotypes (e.g., adult plant biomass or plant height). Genomic sele...
