Selective genotyping to implement genomic selection in beef cattle breeding
Frontiers in Genetics, 2023 Genomic selection (GS) plays an essential role in livestock genetic improvement programs. In dairy cattle, the method is already a recognized tool to estimate the breeding values of young animals and reduce generation intervals.

Breeding value estimation with incomplete marker data [PDF]
Genetics Selection Evolution, 1998 Incomplete marker data prevent application of marker-assisted breeding value estimation using animal model BLUP. We describe a Gibbs sampling approach for Bayesian estimation of breeding values, allowing incomplete information on a single marker that is linked to a quantitative trait locus.

The characteristics of bovine satellite cells with highly scored genomic estimated breeding value
Journal of Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology, 2023 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]
Animal Bioscience, 2023 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 ...

Validation of selection accuracy for the total number of piglets born in Landrace pigs using genomic selection [PDF]
Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2017 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.
