چکیده

In 2003, Xu obtained remarkably precise estimates of QTL positions despite the many markers simultaneously in his Bayesian model. We extend his model and Gibbs algorithm to ensure a valid posterior distribution and convergence to it, without changing the attractiveness of the method.

Estimating polygenic effects using markers of the entire genome.

Molecular markers have been used to map quantitative trait loci. However, they are rarely used to evaluate effects of chromosome segments of the entire genome. The original interval-mapping approach and various modified versions of it may have limited use in evaluating the genetic effects of the entire genome because they require evaluation of multiple models and model selection. Here we presen...

The Impact of Different Genetic Architectures on Accuracy of Genomic Selection Using Three Bayesian Methods

Genome-wide evaluation uses the associations of a large number of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers across the whole genome and then combines the statistical methods with genomic data to predict the genetic values. Genomic predictions relieson linkage disequilibrium (LD) between genetic markers and quantitative trait loci (QTL) in a population. Methods that use all markers simultaneo...

Effect of Markers Effect Estimation Methods, Population Structure and Trait Architercture on the Accuracy of Genomic Breeding Values

This study aimed to investigate the  effect  of  the method of estimating the effects of markers , QTLs distribution, number of QTLs, effective population size and trait heritability on the accuracy of genomic predictions. Two effective population sizes, 100 and 500 individuals, were simulated by QMSim software. A 100 cM genome including one chromosome was simulated where 500 SNPs and two diffe...

Accuracy of Genomic Prediction under Different Genetic Architectures and Estimation Methods

The accuracy of genomic breeding value prediction was investigated in various levels of reference population size, trait heritability and the number of quantitative trait locus (QTL). Five Bayesian methods, including Bayesian Ridge regression, BayesA, BayesB, BayesC and Bayesian LASSO, were used to estimate the marker effects for each of 27 scenarios resulted from combining three levels for her...

 At the present study, the observations of performance traits including body weight at 8 and 12 weeks of age, age at sexual maturity, egg weight and egg number were analyzed to detect major genes in Yazd native fowl. The probability of segregation for major genes was studied using simple tests including tests of normality, Bartlett, Levene and Fain for residuals and Bayesian analysis. Segregati...
