An alternative methodology for imputing missing data in trials with genotype-by-environment interaction: some new aspects
A common problem in multi-environment trials arises when some genotypeby- environment combinations are missing. In Arciniegas-Alarcón et al. (2010) we outlined a method of data imputation to estimate the missing values, the computational algorithm for which was a mixture of regression and lower-rank approximation of a matrix based on its singular value decomposition (SVD). In the present paper we provide two extensions to this methodology, by including weights chosen by cross-validation and allowing...
