DNA-informed technologies for rapid selection of new varieties
2019 | O'Connor K | Research report/Update
Describes research work to identify genetic influences on trait variation in macadamias. This work was part of a PhD project to explore strategies to reduce the length of macadamia seedling evaluation and selection cycles through using DNA-informed technology, i.e. using genomics and modelling rather than fieldwork. The potential for this work is to use genomic selection to predict phenotypes of seedlings at an early age rather than doing progeny trials, saving around 8 years of field assessments.
