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.

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.

EM algorithm for Bayesian estimation of genomic breeding values [PDF]
BMC Genetics, 2010 In genomic selection, a model for prediction of genome-wide breeding value (GBV) is constructed by estimating a large number of SNP effects that are included in a model. Two Bayesian methods based on MCMC algorithm, Bayesian shrinkage regression (BSR) method and stochastic search variable selection (SSVS) method, (which are called BayesA and BayesB ...

The impact of genomic relatedness between populations on the genomic estimated breeding values [PDF]
Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2018 In genomic selection, prediction accuracy is highly driven by the size of animals in the reference population (RP). Combining related populations from different countries and regions or using a related population with large size of RP has been considered to be viable strategies in cattle breeding. The genetic relationship between related populations is

Using the Pareto principle in genome-wide breeding value estimation [PDF]
Genetics Selection Evolution, 2011 Genome-wide breeding value (GWEBV) estimation methods can be classified based on the prior distribution assumptions of marker effects. Genome-wide BLUP methods assume a normal prior distribution for all markers with a constant variance, and are computationally fast.

Genetic architecture of fresh-market tomato yield
BMC Plant Biology, 2023 Background The fresh-market tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is bred for direct consumption and is selected for a high yield of large fruits. To understand the genetic variations (distinct types of DNA sequence polymorphism) that influence the yield, we ...

Pre-selection of most significant SNPS for the estimation of genomic breeding values [PDF]
BMC Proceedings, 2009 The availability of a large amount of SNP markers throughout the genome of different livestock species offers the opportunity to estimate genomic breeding values (GEBVs). However, the estimation of many effects in a data set of limited size represent a severe statistical problem.

Genome-wide linkage scan on estimated breeding values for a quantitative trait [PDF]
BMC Genetics, 2003 Abstract Background A genome-wide linkage scan was performed on Replicate 1 of the simulated data for fasting triglyceride levels. The aim of this study was to implement mixed-model methodology to estimate breeding values for each individual for this trait and to assess the merit of these breeding values ...
