Practical Considerations When Using Mendelian Sampling Variances for Selection Decisions in Genomic Selection Programs

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The purpose of this work was to test the application of selection criteria that consider the genetic variances of future generations. This has not been done previously in numerically large livestock breeding programs based on estimated rather than assumed known marker effects.

Genomic Diversity of U.S. Katahdin Hair Sheep

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the late 1950s, Katahdin hair sheep were developed as a composite breed of medium size and moderate prolificacy, with potential to express resistance to gastrointestinal nematodes. With increasing popularity and the recent adoption of genomic prediction in their genetic evaluation, there is a risk of decreasing variation with selection ...

Re-Examine Distantly Supervised NER: A New Benchmark and a Simple Approach [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Distantly-Supervised Named Entity Recognition (DS-NER) uses knowledge bases or dictionaries for annotations, reducing manual efforts but rely on large human labeled validation set. In this paper, we introduce a real-life DS-NER dataset, QTL, where the training data is annotated using domain dictionaries and the test data is annotated by domain experts.

Optimal Combination of Different Selection and Mating Strategies on Exploiting Genetic Diversity and Genetic Gain in Small Pig Conservation Populations

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Both selection and mating systems are essential tools for breeders to conserve the genetic variance and improve the performance of livestock animals. How to effectively balance the genetic gain and inbreeding has always been an important issue in quantitative genetics research.

High-dimensional covariance regression with application to co-expression QTL detection [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
While covariance matrices have been widely studied in many scientific fields, relatively limited progress has been made on estimating conditional covariances that permits a large covariance matrix to vary with high-dimensional subject-level covariates.

Single‐Step Genome‐Wide Association Study of Factors for Evaluated and Linearly Scored Traits in Swedish Warmblood Horses

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Swedish Warmblood horses (SWB) are bred for show jumping and/or dressage with young horse test scores as indicator traits. This study aimed to investigate possible candidate genes and regions of importance for evaluated and linearly scored young horse test traits.
