Comparison of analyses of the QTLMAS XIV common dataset. I: genomic selection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background - For the XIV QTLMAS workshop, a dataset for traits with complex genetic architecture has been simulated and released for analyses by participants. One of the tasks was to estimate direct genomic values for individuals without phenotypes.

Predictive Genomics of Cardioembolic Stroke [PDF]

open access: yesStroke, 2009
Cardioembolic stroke is a complex disease resulting from the interaction of numerous factors. Using data from Genes Affecting Stroke Risk and Outcome Study (GASROS), we show that a multivariate predictive model built using Bayesian networks is able to achieve a predictive accuracy of 86% on the fitted values as computed by the area under the receiver ...

Genomic Prediction of 16 Complex Disease Risks Including Heart Attack, Diabetes, Breast and Prostate Cancer

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
We construct risk predictors using polygenic scores (PGS) computed from common Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) for a number of complex disease conditions, using L1-penalized regression (also known as LASSO) on case-control data from UK Biobank ...

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

open access: yes, 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

Translating genomics into risk prediction [PDF]

open access: yesThorax, 2017
Cigarette smoking is a leading risk factor in the development of cardiovascular, pulmonary and malignant diseases worldwide.1 Yet, it remains one of the most challenging environmental exposures to quantify. Rudimentary categorisations of ‘never’, ‘former’ and ‘current’ smoker capture only a fraction of the complexity associated with the exposure ...

Systematic Evaluation of Genomic Prediction Algorithms for Genomic Prediction and Breeding of Aquatic Animals

open access: yesGenes, 2022
The extensive use of genomic selection (GS) in livestock and crops has led to a series of genomic-prediction (GP) algorithms despite the lack of a single algorithm that can suit all the species and traits. A systematic evaluation of available GP algorithms is thus necessary to identify the optimal GP algorithm for selective breeding in aquaculture ...

A classic approach for determining genomic prediction accuracy under terminal drought stress and well-watered conditions in wheat landraces and cultivars.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
The present study aimed to improve the accuracy of genomic prediction of 16 agronomic traits in a diverse bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) germplasm under terminal drought stress and well-watered conditions in semi-arid environments.

Preselecting Variants from Large-Scale Genome-Wide Association Study Meta-Analyses Increases the Genomic Prediction Accuracy of Growth and Carcass Traits in Large White Pigs

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
Preselected variants associated with the trait of interest from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) are available to improve genomic prediction in pigs.

A quantitative account of genomic island acquisitions in prokaryotes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background Microbial genomes do not merely evolve through the slow accumulation of mutations, but also, and often more dramatically, by taking up new DNA in a process called horizontal gene transfer.
