The effect of genomic information on optimal contribution selection in livestock breeding programs [PDF]
, 2013 BACKGROUND: Long-term benefits in animal breeding programs require that increases in genetic merit be balanced with the need to maintain diversity (lost due to inbreeding). This can be achieved by using optimal contribution selection. The availability of

Genomic Selection for Forest Tree Improvement: Methods, Achievements and Perspectives
Forests, 2020 The breeding of forest trees is only a few decades old, and is a much more complicated, longer, and expensive endeavor than the breeding of agricultural crops. One breeding cycle for forest trees can take 20–30 years.

The application of genomic selection in improvement of molecular breeding programs in aquaculture [PDF]
مجله بیوتکنولوژی کشاورزی, 2022 Objective Although aquaculture is the fastest sector in terms of animal protein production in the world, breeding programs in aquatic species have been delayed compared to livestock and plants.

Genomic selection in rubber tree breeding: A comparison of models and methods for managing G×E interactions [PDF]
, 2019 Several genomic prediction models combining genotype × environment (G×E) interactions have recently been developed and used for genomic selection (GS) in plant breeding programs. G×E interactions reduce selection accuracy and limit genetic gains in plant

On the Accuracy of Genomic Selection
PLOS ONE, 2016 Genomic selection is focused on prediction of breeding values of selection candidates by means of high density of markers. It relies on the assumption that all quantitative trait loci (QTLs) tend to be in strong linkage disequilibrium (LD) with at least one marker.

The Adaptive Significance of Natural Genetic Variation in the DNA Damage Response of Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]
, 2016 Despite decades of work, our understanding of the distribution of fitness effects of segregating genetic variants in natural populations remains largely incomplete. One form of selection that can maintain genetic variation is spatially varying selection,

Symposium review: How to implement genomic selection.
Journal of Dairy Science, 2020 Genomic selection was adopted very quickly in the 10 yr after first implementation, and breeders continue to find new uses for genomic testing. Breeding values with higher reliability earlier in life are estimated by combining DNA genotypes for many ...

GplusE: beyond genomic selection [PDF]
Food and Energy Security, 2015 AbstractGplusE is a strategy for genomic selection in which the accuracy of assessment in the reference population for a primary trait such as yield is increased by the incorporation of data from high‐ throughput field phenotyping platforms. This increase in precision comes from both exploiting genetic relationships between traits and reducing the ...

Ridge Regression and Other Kernels for Genomic Selection with R Package rrBLUP
, 2011 Many important traits in plant breeding are polygenic and therefore recalcitrant to traditional marker‐assisted selection. Genomic selection addresses this complexity by including all markers in the prediction model.
