The brown planthopper (BPH) is the most destructive insect pest that threatens rice production globally. Developing rice varieties incorporating BPH-resistant genes has proven to be an effective contr
The level of genetic diversity in a population is inversely proportional to the linkage disequilibrium (LD) between individual single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and quantitative trait loci (QTLs)
Multi-trait (MT) genomic prediction models enable breeders to save phenotyping resources and increase the prediction accuracy of unobserved target traits by exploiting available information from non-t
The adoption of machine learning frameworks in areas beyond computer science have been facilitated by the development of user-friendly software tools that do not require an advanced understanding of c
