Abstract
Genomic selection (GS) predicts complex quantitative traits directly from genome-wide molecular markers, bypassing the need for extensive phenotypic trials and accelerating plant breeding cycles. We conducted a comparative evaluation of seven regression approaches — ridge regression (the machine-learning equivalent of RR-BLUP), Lasso, Elastic Net, Partial Least Squares, linear Support Vector Regression, Random Forest, and Gradient Boosting — for predicting grain yield from 1,279 Diversity Array Technology (DArT) molecular markers genotyped across 599 CIMMYT wheat lines evaluated in four independent environments (Crossa et al., 2010; data distributed with the BGLR package). Using 5-fold cross-validation, we measured predictive ability as the Pearson correlation between predicted and observed yield. With default hyperparameters, Random Forest achieved the highest mean predictive ability (r = 0.469 across environments), outperforming ridge regression (r = 0.414). However, when we corrected this comparison by properly tuning the ridge penalty via nested cross-validation, ridge 2 regression’s accuracy rose to r = 0.462 — nearly matching Random Forest and substantially narrowing what had first appeared to be a clear machine-learning advantage. In contrast, applying the same automated tuning procedure to Lasso and Elastic Net did not improve, and in most environments reduced, their accuracy (mean r falling from 0.408 to 0.349 for Lasso), a result we trace to the coarse inner-cross-validation grid and to the mismatch between the tuning objective (mean squared error) and the evaluation metric (Pearson correlation). We report this correction transparently because it materially changes the paper’s central comparative claim and illustrates a documented but often underreported pitfall in applied genomic-prediction benchmarking: an apparent superiority of one model family over another can be, in whole or in part, an artifact of unequal hyperparameter-tuning effort rather than a genuine difference in model capacity. Our measured predictive abilities (r = 0.25-0.56 across models and environments) fall within the range reported in prior wheat genomic-selection studies using comparable marker densities and population sizes. We report Random Forest feature importance for exploratory marker prioritization, while noting that linkage disequilibrium among DArT markers makes individual marker importance rankings unstable and not directly interpretable as causal effect estimates. We discuss the study’s limitations, including its restriction to a single population and marker platform, the omission of pedigree-based relationship information available in the source dataset, and the absence of genotype-by-environment interaction modeling, and outline a concrete agenda for extending this comparison to reaction-norm and multi-environment models.
