Estimating gain by use of a classic selection index under multicollinearity in wheat (Triticum aestivum)
It was shown that the classic selection index, under multicollinearity, could not give simultaneous gains for wheat grain production and its primary components. This was due to the instability and, consequently, low precision of the coefficient index estimates. A modification of the prediction proce...
