Genomic heritability estimates in sweet cherry reveal non-additive genetic variance is relevant for industry-prioritized traits

Abstract Background Sweet cherry is consumed widely across the world and provides substantial economic benefits in regions where it is grown. While cherry breeding has been conducted in the Pacific Northwest for over half a century, little is known about the genetic architecture of important traits....
