Article Synopsis
  • GS and PS showed similar effectiveness in reducing Fusarium ear rot (FER) and fumonisin (FUM) levels in maize, each achieving around a 50% decrease from the base population.
  • Despite comparable gains, the first cycle of genomic selection (GS) outperformed later cycles, indicating initial advantages that diminish over time.
  • Future success in practical GS breeding programs depends on the development of cheaper and faster genotyping methods to enhance selection efficiency.
