Reasons from genetic variance, selection response (R = h²S), and breeding values through BLUP/GBLUP mixed models, multi-environment alpha-lattice trials with check cultivars, genomic selection validated within relatedness, and DUS/seed-certification standards, while treating linkage drag, G×E and G×management rank inversions, unvalidated GWAS hits, and seed mix-ups or off-type contamination as first-class failure modes.
