Interchromosomal Linkage Disequilibrium Analysis Reveals Strong Indications of Sign Epistasis in Wheat Breeding Families

Augusto Tessele, Geoffrey P. Morris, Eduard Akhunov, Blaine E. Johnson, Marshall Clinesmith, Addison Carroll Hope, Allan K. Fritz

The paper analyzes interchromosomal linkage disequilibrium in wheat breeding families to detect sign epistasis, finding 19 regions with strong disequilibrium that support the hypothesis over additive selection.

Improving genomic selection in hexaploid wheat with sub-genome additive and epistatic models

Augusto Tessele, David O. González-Diéguez, José Luis Crossa, Blaine E. Johnson, Geoffrey P. Morris, Allan K. Fritz

This study improves genomic selection in hexaploid wheat by incorporating additive and epistatic effects, leading to a 3% increase in prediction accuracy for grain yield.
