Modeling Epistasis in Genomic Selection [PDF]
Genetics, 2015 Abstract Modeling epistasis in genomic selection is impeded by a high computational load. The extended genomic best linear unbiased prediction (EG-BLUP) with an epistatic relationship matrix and the reproducing kernel Hilbert space regression (RKHS) are two attractive approaches that reduce the computational load.

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.

Adaptive estimation for Hawkes processes; application to genome analysis [PDF]
, 2010 The aim of this paper is to provide a new method for the detection of either favored or avoided distances between genomic events along DNA sequences. These events are modeled by a Hawkes process.

Marker-Assisted Selection and Genomic Selection
, 2017 Breeding techniques and molecular tools, i.e., biotechnology, have increased crop yield over the last century. Marker-assisted selection and, more recently, genome-wide association studies and genomic selection have been used as tools of breeding programs, especially in the resistant genotype selection.

SWEEPFINDER2: Increased sensitivity, robustness, and flexibility
, 2015 SweepFinder is a popular program that implements a powerful likelihood-based method for detecting recent positive selection, or selective sweeps. Here, we present SweepFinder2, an extension of SweepFinder with increased sensitivity and robustness to the ...

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.

The impact of epistatic selection on the genomic traces of selection [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, 2009 The rapid accumulation of genomic data has led to an explosion of studies searching for signals of past selection left within DNA sequences. Yet the majority of theoretical studies investigating the traces of selection have assumed a simple form of selection, without interactions among selectively fixed sites.
