Flywheel Genomics: Simultaneous trait discovery and genetic gain in plant breeding
Genomic mapping has yielded extensive catalogs of quantitative trait loci underlying agronomic traits, yet translating these discoveries into breeding gains remains inefficient. Here, we introduce Flywheel Genomics, a framework that integrates trait discovery directly within rapid cycling breeding populations. Using empirical data from a smallholder-oriented sorghum breeding program, we…
