Understanding the Basics of EPDs
EDIS, 2023 The purpose of this publication is to provide basic concepts and practical examples to help beef producers and their advisors make informed selection decisions using expected progeny difference (EPD) information. Written by Fernanda M.

Accuracy of genomic breeding values in multi-breed dairy cattle populations [PDF]
Genetics Selection Evolution, 2009 Two key findings from genomic selection experiments are 1) the reference population used must be very large to subsequently predict accurate genomic estimated breeding values (GEBV), and 2) prediction equations derived in one breed do not predict accurate GEBV when applied to other breeds.

Transcriptomic prediction of breeding values in loblolly pine
PLOS One, 2023 Phenotypic variation in forest trees can be partitioned into subsets controlled by genetic variation and by environmental factors, and heritability expressed as the proportion of total phenotypic variation attributed to genetic variation. Applied tree breeding programs can use matrices of relationships, based either on recorded pedigrees in structured ...

Multibreed analysis by splitting the breeding values [PDF]
Genetics Selection Evolution, 2006 Abstract An equivalent model for multibreed variance covariance estimation is presented. It considers the additive case including or not the segregation variances. The model is based on splitting the additive genetic values in several independent parts depending on their genetic origin.

Single-step methods for genomic evaluation in pigs
Animal, 2012 Genetic evaluation based on information from phenotypes, pedigree and markers can be implemented using a recently developed single-step method. In this paper we compare accuracies of predicted breeding values for daily gain and feed conversion ratio (FCR)
