Genetics Selection Evolution, 2019 In France, implementation of genomic evaluations in dairy cattle breeds started in 2009 and this has modified the breeding schemes drastically. In this context, the goal of our study was to understand the impact of genomic selection on the genetic ...

Genome-wide profiling of human cap-independent translation-enhancing elements. [PDF]
, 2013 We report an in vitro selection strategy to identify RNA sequences that mediate cap-independent initiation of translation. This method entails mRNA display of trillions of genomic fragments, selection for initiation of translation and high-throughput ...

Efficiency of genomic selection using Bayesian multi-marker models for traits selected to reflect a wide range of heritabilities and frequencies of detected quantitative traits loci in mice [PDF]
, 2012 BACKGROUND: Genomic selection uses dense single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) markers to predict breeding values, as compared to conventional evaluations which estimate polygenic effects based on phenotypic records and pedigree information.

BMC Genomics, 2018 While autozygosity as a consequence of selection is well understood, there is limited information on the ability of different methods to measure true inbreeding.

Genomic selection of purebreds for crossbred performance [PDF]
Genetics Selection Evolution, 2009 Abstract Background One of the main limitations of many livestock breeding programs is that selection is in pure breeds housed in high-health environments but the aim is to improve crossbred performance under field conditions. Genomic selection (GS) using high-density genotyping could be used to address this.

Optimising desired gain indices to maximise selection response
Frontiers in Plant ScienceIntroductionIn plant breeding, we often aim to improve multiple traits at once. However, without knowing the economic value of each trait, it is hard to decide which traits to focus on.

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2018 Genomic selection applied to plant breeding enables earlier estimates of a line’s performance and significant reductions in generation interval. Several factors affecting prediction accuracy should be well understood if breeders are to harness genomic ...

Genomic selection in livestock populations
Genetics Research, 2010 SummaryMost traits of economic importance in livestock are either quantitative or complex. Despite considerable efforts, there has been only limited success in identifying the polymorphisms that cause variation in these traits. Nevertheless, selection based on estimated breeding values (BVs), calculated from data on phenotypic performance and pedigree ...

Variable selection for multifactorial genomic data [PDF]
Chemometrics and Intelligent Laboratory Systems, 2012 Dimension reduction techniques are used to explore genomic data. Due to the large number of variables (genes) included in this kind of studies, variable selection methods are needed to identify the most responsive genes in order to get a better interpretation of the results or to conduct more specific experiments.

Genomic breeding value prediction: methods and procedures*
Animal, 2010 Animal breeding faces one of the most significant changes of the past decades – the implementation of genomic selection. Genomic selection uses dense marker maps to predict the breeding value of animals with reported accuracies that are up to 0.31 higher
