A Two-Part Strategy using Genomic Selection in Hybrid Crop Breeding Programs

Owen M. Powell, R. Chris Gaynor, Gregor Gorjanc, Christian R. Werner, John M. Hickey

This study shows that a two-part hybrid crop breeding strategy with genomic selection and a maximum avoidance of inbreeding crossing scheme maximizes genetic gain and long-term genetic variance.

Genomic data enables genetic evaluation using data recorded on low-middle income country smallholder dairy farms

Owen M. Powell, Raphael Mrode, R. Chris Gaynor, Martin Johnsson, Gregor Gorjanc, John M. Hickey

This study shows genomic data can improve genetic evaluation accuracy in smallholder dairy farms with small herds and weak genetic connections.

Optimal cross selection for long-term genetic gain in two-part programs with rapid recurrent genomic selection

Gregor Gorjanc, R. Chris Gaynor, John M. Hickey

This paper compares optimal cross selection with truncation selection in plant breeding programs, showing optimal cross selection achieves higher long-term genetic gain by improving efficiency and reducing genetic drift.
