Beginning with a justification for the use of quantitative genetics in  decision making in tree improvement programs, the book continues with  a brief presentation of fundamental principles, followed by  discussions and evaluations of mating designs and field test designs,  the use of best linear predictors to estimate breeding values, the use  of computer programs in the analysis of variance for genetic  information, the deployment of genetically improved stock for  capturing gains, the use of economic models for program justification,  and the development of seed transfer guidelines. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2010-12-03\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789048141128\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-015-7987-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 240.0cm x160.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 406.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44398555103372,"sku":"9789048141128","price":197.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789048141128_327cebec-af28-432d-b157-c2d11f5cb3b6.jpg?v=1759286784","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789048141128","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
