Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2021 The use of molecular markers to identify desirable genes in animal production is known as marker-assisted selection. The traditional genetic evaluation model uses the BLUP methodology; when genetic markers are included in the evaluation model, the ...

Singular spaces, groupoids and metrics of positive scalar curvature [PDF]
, 2018 We define and study, under suitable assumptions, the fundamental class, the index class and the rho class of a spin Dirac operator on the regular part of a spin stratified pseudomanifold.

To stay or to roam? Behavioural type influences trade‐offs in male wild turkey survival
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Animals develop familiarity with specific areas through repeated use, gaining detailed knowledge of local conditions, such as food availability, predator presence, and landscape features, which can directly impact fitness.

Analysis of alternative models treating herd × year effects as fixed or random
Czech Journal of Animal Science, 2004 The analysis was conducted of the national database of station tests carried out between May 1996- February 2001, using the Hungarian Large White breed. Days of test, total amount of consumed feed and valuable cuts were taken into the analysis. Using the

Estimation of individual animal SNP-BLUP reliability using full Monte Carlo sampling
JDS Communications, 2021 Calculation of individual animal reliability of estimated genomic breeding value by SNP-BLUP requires inversion of the mixed model equations (MME). When the SNP-BLUP model includes a residual polygenic (RPG) effect, the size of the MME will be at least ...

Enhancing Genome-Enabled Prediction by Bagging Genomic BLUP
PLoS ONE, 2014 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 ...

Implications of avoiding overlap between training and testing data sets when evaluating genomic predictions of genetic merit [PDF]
, 2010 The aim of this study was to evaluate and quantify the importance of avoiding overlap between training and testing subsets of data when evaluating the effectiveness of predictions of genetic merit based on genetic markers.

Intra‐ and Interspecific Effects on Spatio‐Temporal Behavior of Common Commensal Rodent Species
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.This study revealed major findings on spatio‐temporal behavior of commensal rodents on a pig farm showing the influence of interspecific dominance on movement behavior and the resulting species‐specific ecological adaptations. Additionally, rodents tend to stay in their home ranges and migration to other stable buildings is only rare.
