Genomic Prediction for 25 Agronomic and Quality Traits in Alfalfa (Medicago sativa)

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Agronomic and quality traits in alfalfa are very important to forage industry. Genomic prediction (GP) based on genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) data could shorten the breeding cycles and accelerate the genetic gains of these complex traits, if they ...

Accuracy of multi-trait genomic selection using different methods [PDF]

, 2011
Background Genomic selection has become a very important tool in animal genetics and is rapidly emerging in plant genetics. It holds the promise to be particularly beneficial to select for traits that are difficult or expensive to measure, such as traits

Genomic prediction when some animals are not genotyped

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2010
Background The use of genomic selection in breeding programs may increase the rate of genetic improvement, reduce the generation time, and provide higher accuracy of estimated breeding values (EBVs).

Deregressing estimated breeding values and weighting information for genomic regression analyses [PDF]

, 2009
Background Genomic prediction of breeding values involves a so-called training analysis that predicts the influence of small genomic regions by regression of observed information on marker genotypes for a given population of individuals.

The genome-wide analysis identified significant genomic loci explaining genetic variance for body conformation in Hanwoo (Korean cattle) cows

Journal of Applied Animal Research
Genomic data and objective traits (body conformation, growth and carcass features) could increase efficiency in cow selection. GWAS on carcass traits of Hanwoo cattle have been published; however, only a few studies are about body conformation traits ...

Genomic selection in dairy cattle [PDF]

, 2011
The objectives of this Ph.D. thesis were (1) to optimise genomic selection in dairy cattle with respect to the accuracy of predicting total genetic merit and (2) to optimise a dairy cattle breeding program using genomic selection. The study was performed

A theoretical and practical analysis of the optimum breeding system for perennial ryegrass [PDF]

, 2011
peer-reviewedThe goal of plant breeding is to effectively and efficiently select for the best phenotypes leading to the development of improved cultivars. The objectives for this review are to describe and critically evaluate breeding methods appropriate

Inclusion of genomic information in estimation of genetic parameters for body weights and visual scores in Nelore cattle

Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2021
The aim of this study was to evaluate genomic information inclusion in genetic parameter estimation of standardized body weight at birth and at 240, 365, and 450 days of age, and visual scores for body structure, precocity, and body muscularity, measured

Identification of superior parental lines for biparental crossing via genomic prediction.

PLoS ONE, 2020
A parental selection approach based on genomic prediction has been developed to help plant breeders identify a set of superior parental lines from a candidate population before conducting field trials.

Genomic selection requires genomic control of inbreeding

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2012
Background In the past, pedigree relationships were used to control and monitor inbreeding because genomic relationships among selection candidates were not available until recently.
