Very interesting work by @matdkrause that can help breeders!
Here is our preprint on estimating realized genetic gain (RGG) for plant breeding programs. Key points: 1. A novel definition of RGG was proposed. 2. Estimation models were biased, thus 3. Multiple models with directional bias should be considered. @KaioOlimpio @drsinghak
