BrAPI is highlighted as a success story by the @CGIAR_EiB in the #EiBAnnualReport !! excellenceinbreeding.org/ann… excellenceinbreeding.org/blo…
Quantitative geneticists are great at analyzing complex data, but what about presenting complex results to enable effective breeding decisions? Would love to see examples of data visualizations for breeding decision support.
