Other claims from this paper (7)
- Method / resource Grain-filling spectral vegetation indices gave the most accurate wheat yield prediction in five-fold validation.
- Method / resource Days to heading gave the best model performance under irrigation in leave-one-environment-out validation.
- Method / resource Vegetative-stage vegetation indices gave the most accurate model under drought stress.
- Method / resource A genotype by environment interaction model was among the best under terminal heat stress.
- Method / resource A vegetative-stage vegetation index model was among the best under terminal heat stress.
- Method / resource Multiple covariates can improve prediction accuracy or reduce normalized root mean square error.
- Recommendation The authors advise against using all available covariates because gains are marginal and phenotyping costs and analytical complexity rise.
