Marker assisted selection in livestock
Proceedings of the British Society of Animal Science, 1996With the rapid development of genome maps of livestock, many genetic markers are becoming available. These markers usually have no affect on animals in their own right, their value is that they allow the inheritance of sections of chromosome to be followed in suitable pedigrees. How then may genetic markers be used in livestock breeding?

Whole genome marker-assisted selection.
CABI Reviews, 2010Abstract Most applications of genomic selection (GS) have so far been in animals, especially dairy cattle, although theoretical studies have also been conducted for maize. For the last 50 years, commercial breeding programmes for dairy cattle have been based on the progeny test scheme, which results in an average generation interval of ...

A general framework for marker-assisted selection
Theoretical Population Biology, 2007Early simulation studies have showed that the inclusion of epistatic components (especially the additive-by-additive effects) into marker-assisted selection (MAS) can improve selection efficiency for a short-term breeding program. In this study I extend Lande and Thompson's theory to incorporate both additive and non-additive effects into MAS with ...
