Instituto Nacional de Investigación Agropecuaria (INIA) Rice Breeding Program Historical Dataset

Breeding programs generate vast amounts of data which are often scattered
in separate files. This hinders the application of modern breeding tools
such as multi-environment analyses and genomic selection. This dataset is
the result of consolidating 23 years of phenotypic, pedigree, and genomic
records from the Uruguayan national rice breeding program. All the
available data from 1997 to 2020 corresponding to field trials, blast
nurseries, laboratory analyses of milling and cooking quality, pedigree
information, and genomic information for selected advanced breeding lines
are gathered. Records of 996 trials in 12 locations over a span of 23
years, 91,636 field plots with information on 14 phenotypic variables,
pedigree for 19,447 genotypes, and genomic information regarding 61,260
SNP markers for 965 genotypes were recovered. The dataset is structured in
Trials, Phenotypes, Lines, Genomic Information, and SNP Tables. Genotype
identification has been coded.
