Univariate and multivariate genomic prediction for agronomic traits in durum wheat under two field conditions.

ABSTRACT: Genomic prediction (GP) has been evaluated in durum wheat breeding programs for several years, but prediction accuracy (PA) remains insufficient for some traits. Recently, multivariate (MV) analysis has gained much attention due to its potential to significantly improve PA. In this study, PA was evaluated for several agronomic traits using a univariate (UV) model in durum wheat, subsequently, different multivariate genomic prediction models were performed to attempt to increase PA. The panel was phenotyped for 10 agronomic traits over two consecutive crop seasons and under two different field conditions: high nitrogen and well-watered (HNW), and low nitrogen and rainfed (LNR). Multivariate GP was implemented using two cross-validation (CV) schemes: MV-CV1, testing the model for each target
