Combined Multistage Linear Genomic Selection Indices to Predict the Net Genetic Merit in Plant Breeding
<|begin_of_text|><|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|> You are a research archivist expert in dataset metadata. Answer the question truthfully.  <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|> Here is the Description of a dataset. Description:'Multistage selection is a cost-saving strategy for improving several traits because it is not necessary to measure all traits at each stage. A combined linear genomic selection index is a linear combination of phenotypic and genomic estimated breeding values useful to predict the individual net genetic merit, which in turn is a linear combination of the true unobservable breeding values of the traits weighted by their respective economic values. The main combined multistage linear genomic selection indices are the optimum and decorrelated indices. Using real and simulated data, we compared the efficiency of both indices to predict the net genetic merit in plants in a two-stage breeding context. The criteria used to compare the efficiency of both indices were that the total selection response of each index must be lower than or equal to ' .
