Market Power with Dynamic Inventory Constraints: The Bias in Standard Measures [PDF]
This paper incorporates inventory dynamics into an analysis of market power. Using a model in which each firm accounts for the effect of its current action on the current and future actions of itself and its competitors, we show that measures of market ...

Multi‐Breed Genomic Predictions for Average Daily Gain in Three Italian Beef Cattle Breeds
ABSTRACT Marchigiana, Chianina, and Romagnola are three Italian autochthonous beef cattle breeds that have been historically selected for meat production. Recent advancements suggest that the use of genomic data and multi‐breed (MB) models to combine information from different breeds may help to increase the accuracies of genomic predictions, in ...

ABSTRACT Detecting selection footprints offers valuable insight into evolutionary processes and the mechanisms underlying phenotypic diversity in selected traits. Domestication, natural and artificial selection, and breeding have produced indigenous goats well‐adapted to their local environments, making them crucial genetic resources. Understanding the

Genomic Prediction Ability for Novel Profitability Traits Using Different Models in Nelore Cattle
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to assess the accuracy, bias and dispersion of genomic predictions for accumulated profitability (APF) and profit per kilogram of liveweight gain (PFT) in Nelore cattle using different prediction approaches. The dataset consisted of 3969 phenotypic records for each trait. The pedigree harboured information from 38,930
