Brief Project Summary:

Genomic prediction and selection will be put into practice in the UNL Soybean Breeding Program. It will be thoroughly compared to
phenotypic selection to assess its true potential for increasing rate of genetic gain for grain yield.
Sub-aims include 1) Develop in-house genotyping methods to reduce costs and improve turn-around time, and 2) Develop and test
models for enhancing prediction accuracy through modeling the interaction between environment and cultivar.

The United Soybean Research Retention policy will display final reports with the project once completed but working files will be purged after three years. And financial information after seven years. All pertinent information is in the final report or if you want more information, please contact the project lead at your state soybean organization or principal investigator listed on the project.
