THI Modulation of Genetic and Non-genetic Variance Components for Carcass Traits in Hanwoo Cattle [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2020 The phenotype of carcass traits in beef cattle are affected by random genetic and non-genetic effects, which both can be modulated by an environmental variable such as Temperature-Humidity Index (THI), a key environmental factor in cattle production.

Predicting the purebred-crossbred genetic correlation from the genetic variance components in the parental lines [PDF]
Genetics Selection Evolution, 2021 Background The genetic correlation between purebred and crossbred performance ( $${r}_{pc}$$ r pc ) is an important parameter in pig and poultry breeding, because response to selection in crossbred performance depends on the value of $${r}_{pc}$$ r pc ...

Contribution of genetic effects to genetic variance components with epistasis and linkage disequilibrium [PDF]
BMC Genetics, 2009 Background Cockerham genetic models are commonly used in quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis with a special feature of partitioning genotypic variances into various genetic variance components, while the F∞ genetic models are widely used in genetic ...

Analysis of variance components for genetic markers with unphased genotypes [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2016 An ANOVA type general multi-allele (GMA) model was proposed in cite{Wang2014} on analysis of variance components for quantitative trait loci or genetic markers with phased or unphased genotypes.

Genetic variance components of the growth curve for Isfahan indigenous chicken [PDF]
Veterinary Medicine and ScienceBackground Being able to model a growth curve using three or four non‐linear functional parameters could help explain the growth phenomenon in a precise way and would allow the comparison of an animal's development rate, optimize management and feeding ...

Estimates for genetic variance components in reciprocal recurrent selection in populations derived from maize single-cross hybrids. [PDF]
ScientificWorldJournal, 2014 This study was carried out to obtain the estimates of genetic variance and covariance components related to intra- and interpopulation in the original populations (C0) and in the third cycle (C3) of reciprocal recurrent selection (RRS) which allows ...

Using the realized relationship matrix to disentangle confounding factors for the estimation of genetic variance components of complex traits [PDF]
Genetics Selection Evolution, 2010 Background In the analysis of complex traits, genetic effects can be confounded with non-genetic effects, especially when using full-sib families. Dominance and epistatic effects are typically confounded with additive genetic and non-genetic effects ...

QTLRel: an R Package for Genome-wide Association Studies in which Relatedness is a Concern
BMC Genetics, 2011 Background Existing software for quantitative trait mapping is either not able to model polygenic variation or does not allow incorporation of more than one genetic variance component. Improperly modeling the genetic relatedness among subjects can result
