Single-step methods for genomic evaluation in pigs.
Genetic evaluation based on information from phenotypes, pedigree and markers can be implemented using a recently developed single-step method. In this paper we compare accuracies of predicted breeding values for daily gain and feed conversion ratio (FCR) in Danish Duroc pigs obtained from different versions of single-step methods, the traditional pedigree-based method and the genomic BLUP (GBL...
متن کاملRunning head : Single - step genomic BLUP for Angus Genetic evaluation using single - step genomic BLUP in American Angus
Predictive ability of genomic EBV when using single-step genomic BLUP 1 (ssGBLUP) in Angus cattle was investigated. Over 6 million records were available on birth 2 weight (BW) and weaning weight (WW), almost 3.4 million on post-weaning gain (PWG), and 3 over 1.3 million on calving ease (CE). Genomic information was available on at most 51,883 4 animals, which included high and low EBV accuracy...
متن کاملGenetic evaluation using single-step genomic BLUP in American Angus
Introduction Genomic selection in beef cattle has currently been performed with multistep methods, which uses deregressed EBV to estimate SNP effects and then direct genomic value (DGV) for selection candidates based on their genotypes (Meuwissen et al., 2001; Garrick et al., 2009). The main advantage of this approach is that the traditional BLUP evaluation is kept unchanged and genomic selecti...
متن کاملMethods to approximate reliabilities in single-step genomic evaluation.
Reliability of predictions from single-step genomic BLUP (ssGBLUP) can be calculated by matrix inversion, but that is not feasible for large data sets. Two methods of approximating reliability were developed based on the decomposition of a function of reliability into contributions from records, pedigrees, and genotypes. Those contributions can be expressed in record or daughter equivalents. Th...
متن کاملApplication of single-step genomic evaluation for crossbred performance in pig.
Crossbreding is predominant and intensively used in commercial meat production systems, especially in poultry and swine. Genomic evaluation has been successfully applied for breeding within purebreds but also offers opportunities of selecting purebreds for crossbred performance by combining information from purebreds with information from crossbreds. However, it generally requires that all rele...
