Estimating genomic breeding values and detecting QTL using univariate and bivariate models [PDF]

, 2011
Background Genomic selection is particularly beneficial for difficult or expensive to measure traits. Since multi-trait selection is an important tool to deal with such cases, an important question is what the added value is of multi-trait genomic ...

Recent progress in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) genomics and genomic selection

Crop Journal, 2018
Alfalfa (M. sativa L.) is a highly valuable forage crop, providing >58 Mt of hay, silage, and pasture each year in the United States. As alfalfa is an outcrossing autotetraploid crop, however, breeding for enhanced agronomic traits is challenging and ...

Potential of preimplantation genomic selection for carcass traits in Japanese Black cattle

The Journal of Reproduction and Development, 2019
Preimplantation genomic selection using genomic estimated breeding values (GEBVs) based on single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotypes is expected to accelerate genetic improvement in cattle.

Estimating quantitative genetic parameters in wild populations:A comparison of pedigree and genomic approaches [PDF]

, 2014
The estimation of quantitative genetic parameters in wild populations is generally limited by the accuracy and completeness of the available pedigree information. Using relatedness at genome-wide markers can potentially remove this limitation and lead to

Assessment of Efficiency of Breeding Methods in Accelerating Genetic Gain in Rice

Agronomy
The pedigree, bulk, and single-seed descent-based rapid generation advance methods are commonly practiced breeding methods in rice. But the efficiency of these breeding methods in enhancing genetic gain has not been investigated yet.

Response to genomic selection: The Bulmer effect and the potential of genomic selection when the number of phenotypic records is limiting

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2012
Background Over the last ten years, genomic selection has developed enormously. Simulations and results on real data suggest that breeding values can be predicted with high accuracy using genetic markers alone.

New cycle, same old mistakes? Overlapping vs. discrete generations in long-term recurrent selection

BMC Genomics, 2022
Background Recurrent selection is a foundational breeding method for quantitative trait improvement. It typically features rapid breeding cycles that can lead to high rates of genetic gain.
