Table 1 Least-squares means for true genetic gain in generations \({t}\) = 4, …, 10 (\(\Delta {\text{G}}_{{{\text{true}}4 - 10}}\)) realised by POCS, GOCS, and truncation selection at a 0.01 \(\Delta {\text{F}}_{{{\text{true}}4 - 10}}\) in a breeding scheme with genomic prediction

From: Pre-selection against a lethal recessive allele in breeding schemes with optimum-contribution selection or truncation selection
