Genomic and phenomic prediction models improve selection accuracy for complex traits in alfalfa
Abstract Predictive breeding has been proposed as an effective approach to accelerate genetic gain for complex traits. Genomic prediction (GP) models have been developed in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) for key traits in the last decade. More recently, phenomic prediction (PP) models have been proposed as a low‐cost, high‐throughput alternative to GP in
