Importance of BLUP method in plant breeding
Introduction: The most desirable linear neutral prediction (BLUP) is a standard method for estimating the random effects of a hybrid model. This approach was originally developed in animal breeding to estimate breeding values and is now widely used in many fields of research.

BLUP: Neither Best nor Unbiased
BLUP is algebraically analyzed in the case of IID errors and orthogonal data. BLUP is biased for any finite N and does not consistently score lower MSE than OLS. BLUP also underestimates the variance of the parameter vector for any finite N. Arguments are verified with simulation.

Potential benefit from using an identified major gene in BLUP evaluation with truncation and optimal selection [PDF]
This study investigates the benefit of including information on an identified major gene in the estimation of breeding values in BLUP selection programmes. Selection for a quantitative trait is controlled by polygenes and a major locus with known effect.

Genome-wide Association Study (GWAS) and Its Application for Improving the Genomic Estimated Breeding Values (GEBV) of the Berkshire Pork Quality Traits [PDF]
The missing heritability has been a major problem in the analysis of best linear unbiased prediction (BLUP). We introduced the traditional genome-wide association study (GWAS) into the BLUP to improve the heritability estimation.

The Usage of an SNP-SNP Relationship Matrix for Best Linear Unbiased Prediction (BLUP) Analysis Using a Community-Based Cohort Study [PDF]
Best linear unbiased prediction (BLUP) has been used to estimate the fixed effects and random effects of complex traits. Traditionally, genomic relationship matrix-based (GRM) and random marker-based BLUP analyses are prevalent to estimate the genetic ...
