Temporal changes in allele frequency facilitate detection of adaptive variants in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) breeding programs

This study uses temporal allele frequency changes to detect adaptive variants in winter wheat breeding programs, finding that selection signals identify non-neutral variants associated with grain yield and protein content.

Genomic prediction for malting quality traits in practical barley breeding programs

This study evaluates genomic prediction for malting quality traits in barley breeding using different cross-validation methods and training population sizes, finding medium to high heritability and accuracy improvements with larger training populations.
