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 ...

Methods to estimate breeding values in honey bees [PDF]
Genetics Selection Evolution, 2014 Efficient methodologies based on animal models are widely used to estimate breeding values in farm animals. These methods are not applicable in honey bees because of their mode of reproduction. Observations are recorded on colonies, which consist of a single queen and thousands of workers that descended from the queen mated to 10 to 20 drones.

Stability of Aberdeen Angus breeding values in the Czech Republic from 1997 to 2007
Czech Journal of Animal Science, 2011 We predict the stability of breeding values (BVs) for direct effect (DE) and maternal effect (ME) for live weights at 210 days of age in the entire population of purebred Aberdeen Angus cattle in the Czech Republic according to an increase of progeny ...
