Genomic prediction of agronomic traits in perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) and genotype x environment interactions at the limit of the species distribution
This study demonstrates the usefulness and limitations of genomic prediction models for predicting GxE in highly diverse samples and describes the extent of GxE at the limit of species distribution for perennial ryegrass. Our study points towards adaptive variation which may enhance persistence of perennial ryegrass populations in Nordic and Baltic growing conditions.
