| Summary : Analysis of Selection Index in Plant Breeding
|
Description :
The aim of most plant breeding programmes is simultaneous improvement
of several characters. An objective method involving simultaneous
selection for several attributes then becomes necessary. It has been
recognised that most rapid improvements in the economic value is
expected from selection applied simultaneously to all the characters
which determine the economic value of a plant, and appropriate assigned
weights to each character according to their economic importance,
heritability and correlations between characters. So the selection for
economic value is a complex matter. If the component characters are
combined together into an index in such a way that when selection is
applied to the index, as if index is the character to be improved, most
rapid improvement of economic value is expected. Such an index was
first proposed by Smith (1937 < doi:10.1111/j.1469-1809.1936.tb02143.x>)
based on the Fisher\'s (1936 < doi:10.1111/j.1469-1809.1936.tb02137.x>)

In this package selection index is calculated based on the Smith (1937)
selection index method.
