1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

key messageFor genomic selection in clonally propagated crops with diploid (-like) meiotic behavior to be effective, crossing parents should be selected based on genomic predicted cross-performance unless dominance is negligible. For genomic selection (GS) in clonal breeding programs to be effective, parents should be selected based on genomic predicted cross-performance unless dominance is negligible. Genomic prediction of cross-performance enables efficient exploitation of the additive and dominance value simultaneously. Here, we compared different GS strategies for clonally propagated crops with diploid (-like) meiotic behavior, using strawberry as an example. We used stochastic simulation to evaluate six combinations of three breeding programs and two parent selection methods. The three breeding programs included (1) a breeding program that introduced GS in the first clonal stage, and (2) two variations of a two-part breeding program with one and three crossing cycles per year, respectively. The two parent selection methods were (1) parent selection based on genomic estimated breeding values (GEBVs) and (2) parent selection based on genomic predicted cross-performance (GPCP). Selection of parents based on GPCP produced faster genetic gain than selection of parents based on GEBVs because it reduced inbreeding when the dominance degree increased. The two-part breeding programs with one and three crossing cycles per year using GPCP always produced the most genetic gain unless dominance was negligible. We conclude that (1) in clonal breeding programs with GS, parents should be selected based on GPCP, and (2) a two-part breeding program with parent selection based on GPCP to rapidly drive population improvement has great potential to improve breeding clonally propagated crops.
