Abstract

High-throughput genotyping enables genomic selection (GS) to be used as a tool for breeding kiwifruit. Genomic selection is a marker-assisted selection method in which genome-wide marker data are used to make phenotypic predictions. Kiwifruit breeding could benefit from GS either to select males for use as parents based on their genomic breeding values, for faster culling of seedlings, or to accelerate seedling selection into advanced trials. Methods to obtain high-coverage genotypes from kiwifruit for GS include genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS), restriction-associated DNA (RAD) sequencing, capture-based techniques and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays. Genomic selection has been successfully applied to many diploid taxa, and a pilot study in diploid Actinidia chinensis var. chinensis has used GBS data. To apply GS to the autopolyploid kiwifruit populations successfully, improvements in detecting and analysing the genotype information are being made.
