Genome-wide association analysis using multiple Atlantic salmon populations [PDF]
Genetics Selection EvolutionBackground In a previous study, we found low persistence of linkage disequilibrium (LD) phase across breeding populations of Atlantic salmon. Accordingly, we observed no increase in accuracy from combining these populations for genomic prediction.
