Modeling genotype × environment interaction for single and multitrait genomic prediction in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.).

ABSTRACT: In this study, we extend research on genomic prediction (GP) to polysomic polyploid plant species with the main objective to investigate single-trait (ST) and multitrait (MT) multienvironment (ME) models using field trial data from 3 locations in Sweden [Helgegården (HEL), Mosslunda (MOS), Umeå (UM)] over 2 years (2020, 2021) of 253 potato cultivars and breeding clones for 5 tuber weight traits and 2 tuber flesh quality characteristics. This research investigated the GP of 4 genome-based prediction models with genotype × environment interactions (GEs): (1) ST reaction norm model (M1), (2) ST model considering covariances between environments (M2), (3) ST M2 extended to include a random vector that utilizes the environmental covariances (M3), and (4) MT model with GE (M4).
