Genome-association analysis of Korean Holstein milk traits using genomic estimated breeding value [PDF]
Objective Holsteins are known as the world’s highest-milk producing dairy cattle. The purpose of this study was to identify genetic regions strongly associated with milk traits (milk production, fat, and protein) using Korean Holstein data.

Simultaneous Effects of Single-Nucleotide Polymorphisms on the Estimated Breeding Value of Milk, Fat, and Protein Yield of Holstein Friesian Cows in Hungary [PDF]
This study aimed to find SNPs that have an effect on the estimated breeding values (EBVs) of milk (MY), fat (FY), and protein yield (PY) of Holstein Friesian cows in Hungary. Holstein Friesian cows (n = 2963) were genotyped on a Eurogenomics (EuroG_MDv4)

Estimated Breeding Values of Aberdeen-Angus Cattle Breed
: The study aims to calculate the estimated breeding value of Aberdeen-Angus cattle using the BLUP method. The live weight of cattle of the Aberdeen-Angus breed was: At birth in bulls 28.25 kg and in heifers 27.18 kg; on day 210, at weaning in bulls 212 ...

Reliabilities of estimated breeding values in models with metafounders
AbstractBackgroundReliabilities of best linear unbiased predictions (BLUP) of breeding values are defined as the squared correlation between true and estimated breeding values and are helpful in assessing risk and genetic gain. Reliabilities can be computed from the prediction error variances for models with a single base population but are undefined ...

Genome wide screening of candidate genes for improving piglet birth weight using high and low estimated breeding value populations. [PDF]
Birth weight is an economically important trait in pig production because it directly impacts piglet growth and survival rate. In the present study, we performed a genome wide survey of candidate genes and pathways associated with individual birth weight

Genomic breeding value estimation using nonparametric additive regression models [PDF]
Genomic selection refers to the use of genomewide dense markers for breeding value estimation and subsequently for selection. The main challenge of genomic breeding value estimation is the estimation of many effects from a limited number of observations. Bayesian methods have been proposed to successfully cope with these challenges.
