       University
Date: Fri, 29 Mar 2019 16:41:15 -0500

The Plant and Animal Breeding and Genetics Groups at Iowa State University
are pleased to announce a short course on "Genotype to phenotype models for
traditional and new phenotyping data in plant breeding”, by Drs. Fred van
Eeuwijk, Martin Boer, and Daniela Bustos-Korts (Wageningen University),
which will be held at Iowa State University from Sunday June 9 through
Wednesday June 12, 2019

Course objectives: Learn how to define, fit, and interpret statistical
models for the following plant breeding contexts:

1) Analysis of single and multiple trials (GxE)

2) modelling longitudinal phenotyping data (platforms and field
experiments)

3) QTL analysis for biparental and multiparental populations

4) QTL/GWAS/genomic prediction for single and multiple traits

Target Audience: Graduate students, post-docs, academic staff, industry
geneticists

Pre-requisites: Knowledge of ANOVA, regression, mixed models, quantitative
genetics (being able to define models)

Course Structure: Lectures + hands on exercises (R; ASReml-R)

Hours: S,M,T: 8:30 am–noon and 1:00-5:00 pm, Wed 8:30am-noon and
