Balancing gain and diversity: Optimal contribution selection for sustainable genetic improvement in sugarcane

Abstract Sugarcane (Saccharum spp. hybrids), the source of ∼80% of the worlds sugar, has experienced a plateau in genetic improvement over recent decades. This stagnation is largely due to the crop's complex polyploid genome and long breeding cycles, which limit the efficiency of traditional selection methods. Genomic...

From family trials to genomic mate allocation: statistical and genomic strategies to accelerate sugarcane genetic improvement

Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) underpins global sugar and bioenergy supply and is increasingly valued as a renewable biomass feedstock. Sustained improvement in commercial traits and resilience is constrained by long breeding cycles, clonal propagation, multi-stage testing, and a highly polyploid, heterozygous, and frequen...
