Estimation of prediction error variances via Monte Carlo sampling methods using different formulations of the prediction error variance [PDF]
Calculation of the exact prediction error variance covariance matrix is often computationally too demanding, which limits its application in REML algorithms, the calculation of accuracies of estimated breeding values and the control of variance of ...

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 ...

The characteristics of bovine satellite cells with highly scored genomic estimated breeding value
Background: The grading of Hanwoo (Korean native cattle) is based on four economic traits, and efforts have been continuously made to improve the genetic traits associated with these traits.

Comparison on genomic prediction using pedigree BLUP and single step GBLUP through the Hanwoo full-sib family [PDF]
Objective When evaluating individuals with the same parent and no phenotype by pedigree best linear unbiased prediction (BLUP), it is difficult to explain carcass grade difference and select individuals because they have the same value in pedigree BLUP ...

Methods to estimate breeding values in honey bees [PDF]
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.

Validation of selection accuracy for the total number of piglets born in Landrace pigs using genomic selection [PDF]
Objective This study was to determine the relationship between estimated breeding value and phenotype information after farrowing when juvenile selection was made in candidate pigs without phenotype information.

Genomic Selection in Cereal Breeding
Genomic Selection (GS) is a method in plant breeding to predict the genetic value of untested lines based on genome-wide marker data. The method has been widely explored with simulated data and also in real plant breeding programs.
