Oscilação genética em diferentes tamanhos de população sob seleção
Com o objetivo de estudar alguns fatores que influenciam a seleção em longo prazo, foram utilizados dados simulados pelo programa GENESYS, considerando: duas herdabilidades, dois tamanhos de população, três níveis de repetição e 20 gerações, para ...

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 ...

Enhancing Genome-Enabled Prediction by Bagging Genomic BLUP
We examined whether or not the predictive ability of genomic best linear unbiased prediction (GBLUP) could be improved via a resampling method used in machine learning: bootstrap aggregating sampling ("bagging"). In theory, bagging can be useful when the predictor has large variance or when the number of markers is much larger than sample size ...

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

The introgression of Musa itinerans into cultivated banana varieties has expanded their genetic diversity, enhancing breeding potential. Genome‐wide association studies and functional validation confirmed the transcription factor gene MabHLH30 as a critical regulator of plant stature, enabling the implementation of marker‐assisted selection to ...

Structural Variants Contribute to Phenotypic Variation in Maize
ABSTRACT Comprehensively identifying the loci shaping trait variation has been challenging, in part because standard approaches often miss many types of genetic variants. Structural variants (SVs), especially transposable elements (TEs), are likely to affect phenotypic variation but we lack methods that can detect polymorphic SVs and TEs using short ...

Summary Molecular breeding strategies such as genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) and genomic prediction have revolutionized crop improvement by enhancing selection accuracy and genetic gains. Through a comprehensive evaluation of a large set of maize lines from Germplasm Enhancement of Maize (BGEM) and their testcross hybrids, we aimed to ...
