A BLUP derivation of the multivariate breeder's equation, with an elucidation of errors in BLUP variance estimates, and a prediction method for inbred populations [PDF]
The multivariate breeder's equation, Lande (1979), was derived from the Price equation Price (1970,1972). Here, I present a derivation based on the BLUP (best linear unbiased predictions) equations in matrix form, first given in summation form by ...

Different methods to calculate genomic predictions—Comparisons of BLUP at the single nucleotide polymorphism level (SNP-BLUP), BLUP at the individual level (G-BLUP), and the one-step approach (H-BLUP) [PDF]
Several strategies to use genomic data in predictions have been proposed. The aim of this study was to compare different genomic prediction methods. The response variables used in the genomic predictions were deregressed proofs, which were derived from 2 estimated breeding value (EBV) data sets.

The Misuse of BLUP in Ecology and Evolution
Best linear unbiased prediction (BLUP) is a method for obtaining point estimates of a random effect in a mixed effect model. Over the past decade it has been used extensively in ecology and evolutionary biology to predict individual breeding values and reaction norms.

Genetic Evaluation of Body Weight Traits in Local Rabbit [PDF]
This study was carried out on seventy-six local rabbit (white, black and white and brown white coat color) to investigate the effect of some non-genetic factors on body weight traits in local rabbits with the genetic evaluation of local rabbits by ...

Chemical and sensory characteristics in the selection of bourbon genotypes
The evaluation of coffee quality in Brazil for commercialization is conducted mainly through sensory analysis, also known as the "cup test", in which professional tasters evaluate and score various attributes.

Genetic Variability and Resistance to Orobanche in Oriental Nicotiana tabacum L. [PDF]
Broomrape as an obligate parasite that threatens tobacco production (Nicotiana tabacum L.), has destructive effects on its characteristics. The reduction in yield caused by this parasite is so great that sometimes farmers are forced to leave their fields

STRATEGIC POSITIONING OF THE NUTRITIONAL PROFILE OF WHEAT GRAINS BASED ON GENETIC PARAMETERS
Background. Wheat is a staple food crop and easily accessible to the population, so the biofortification of wheat grains is substantial to mitigate malnutrition. Objective.

SNP-BLUP, G-BLUP ja H-BLUP - johdanto genomisiin arvosteluihin
Genominen valinta tarkoittaa eläimen (ja kasvien) jalostusarvon ennustamista ja valintapäätöksen tekemistä yksilön DNA:n eli SNP- markkeritietojen perusteella. Viime vuosina genomisten jalostusarvojen laskentaan on kehitelty useita malleja. Yksinkertaisessa DNA markkeri eli SNP-BLUP menetelmään perustuvassa mallissa SNP-markkerivaikutuksia käsitellään ...
