Genome position specific priors for genomic prediction [PDF]
Background The accuracy of genomic prediction is highly dependent on the size of the reference population. For small populations, including information from other populations could improve this accuracy.

Genomic prediction is transforming animal and plant breeding and its utility to predict human disease risk is being explored. The method aims to predict an individual’s future phenotype based on only a DNA test.

Development of genomic prediction in sorghum
Genomic selection can increase the rate of genetic gain in plant breeding programs by shortening the breeding cycle. Gain can also be increased through higher selection intensities, as the size of the population available for selection can be increased ...

Predicting the accuracy of genomic predictions [PDF]
Abstract Background Mathematical models are needed for the design of breeding programs using genomic prediction. While deterministic models for selection on pedigree-based estimates of breeding values (PEBV) are available, these have not been fully developed for genomic selection, with a key missing component being the ...

Genomic Prediction for Twin Pregnancies [PDF]
Twinning is a multifactorial trait influenced by both genetic and environmental factors that can negatively impact animal welfare and economic sustainability on commercial dairy operations. To date, using genetic selection as a tool for reducing twinning rates on commercial dairies has been proposed, but not yet implemented.

Genomics-aided structure prediction [PDF]
We introduce a theoretical framework that exploits the ever-increasing genomic sequence information for protein structure prediction. Structure-based models are modified to incorporate constraints by a large number of non-local contacts estimated from direct coupling analysis (DCA) of co-evolving genomic sequences.

Promoter prediction in the human genome [PDF]
Abstract Computational prediction of eukaryotic polII promoters has been one of the most elusive problems despite considerable effort devoted to the study. Researchers have looked for various types of signals around the transcriptional start site (TSS), viz.

Genomic prediction using subsampling [PDF]
Genome-wide assisted selection is a critical tool for the genetic improvement of plants and animals. Whole-genome regression models in Bayesian framework represent the main family of prediction methods. Fitting such models with a large number of observations involves a prohibitive computational burden. We propose the use of subsampling bootstrap Markov

The impact of genomic relatedness between populations on the genomic estimated breeding values
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

Bayesian methods for jointly estimating genomic breeding values of one continuous and one threshold trait. [PDF]
Genomic selection has become a useful tool for animal and plant breeding. Currently, genomic evaluation is usually carried out using a single-trait model.
