Be-Breeder: an R/Shiny application for phenotypic data analyses in plant breeding

Filipe Inácio Matias, Italo Granato and Roberto Fritsche-Neto

Abstract: In order to successfully achieve the final goal of genotype selection in plant breeding programs, many aspects must be considered and carefully thought regarding cost, time, and efficiency. Thus, we have developed the BeBreeder application to perform main biometric and statistical analyses using mixed and multivariate models. Implemented using the Shiny R package, this is one the first online platforms proposed in this context. Be-Breeder is available at http://www.genetica.esalq.usp.br/alogamas/R.html.
