Abstract

We propose a new class of models for the estimation of genotype by environment (GxE) interactions in plant-based genetics. Our approach, named AMBARTI, uses semiparametric Bayesian additive regression trees to accurately capture marginal genotypic and environment effects along with their interaction in a cut Bayesian framework. We demonstrate that our approach is competitive or superior to similar models widely used in the literature via both simulation and a real world dataset. Furthermore, we introduce new types of visualisation to properly assess both the marginal and interactive predictions from the model. An R package that implements our approach is also available at
