Table 2 Comparison of prediction accuracies across three sampling and two calibration strategies. Three sampling strategies for the selection of 20 % of the G2 population as the validation set were applied: random, S1: between half-sib families and S2: within full-sib families. Two calibration strategies were used for each sampling strategy. For predictions for the 20 % of the G2 population selected, we used the remaining 80 % of the G2 plus their progenitors (G0 and G1) as the calibration set. The mean prediction accuracy (and range) for models based on pedigree information (ABLUP) and marker information (GBLUP and B-LASSO), and the results for the three traits studied (tree diameter, height and stem straightness) are presented
