This project forms part of a series that aims to at least double the rate of genetic gain in pine tree breeding in Australia. This project will focus on the extensive network of trials and orchards in the Gippsland region of Victoria to further implement cutting-edge single-step genomic selection, provide pedigree and identity assurance for the radiata pine breeding and deployment populations, and deliver new, high-throughput sample processing methods.

The overall aim of this project is to deliver a single sheep database system containing sheep pedigree, data and genotypes. This information is currently spread across more than 6 databases, and once centralised, will allow ram breeders and buyers to make improved breeding decisions.
