A stage-wise approach for the analysis of multi-environment trials.
(University of Nairobi, 2012)
Plant breeders and variety testing agencies routinely test candidate genotypes (crop varieties, lines, test hybrids) in multiple environments. Such multi-environment trials can be efficiently analysed by mixed models. A ...
Genomic selection using regularized linear regression models: ridge regression, lasso, elastic net and their extensions.
(University of Nairobi, 2012)
BACKGROUND:
Genomic selection (GS) is emerging as an efficient and cost-effective method for estimating breeding values using molecular markers distributed over the entire genome. In essence, it involves estimating the ...
