Classical genomic prediction approaches rely on statistical associations between traits and markers rather than their biological significance. Biologically informed selection of genomic regions can help prioritize polymorphisms by considering underly...
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have many advantages as molecular markers since they are ubiquitous and codominant. However, the discovery of true SNPs in polyploid species is difficult. Peanut ( L.) is an allopolyploid, which has a very low r...
New methods and algorithms are being developed for predicting untested phenotypes in schemes commonly used in genomic selection (GS). The prediction of disease resistance in GS has its own peculiarities: a) there is consensus about the additive natur...
