A Leap Forward in Genomic Enhanced BREEDPLAN EBVs
ثبت نشده
چکیده
“This is an important breakthrough for industry now all 3 sources of possible information on an animal, pedigree, its own performance and that of its recorded relatives, and its own DNA test, can be combined into a single EBV. Industry has sought this outcome, and it will help avoid confusion for breeders and producers through information overload”, said Peter Parnell, CEO of Angus Australia. Only the MVPs of those animals that are submitted to Angus Australia for HD50K testing with Pfizer Animal Genetics will be used in the routine Angus BREEDPLAN analysis

Approximate prediction error covariances among multiple estimated breeding values for individuals
INTRODUCTION Today’s genetic evaluation schemes involve models comprising multiple, correlated additive genetic effects for each animal. These can be multi-trait (MT) models or random regression (RR) models which model trajectories in traits recorded repeatedly per animal through a set of RR coefficients. Often we are interested in linear functions of the resulting breeding value (EBV) estimate...
متن کاملThe Value of Progeny Test Programs
The Beef Information Nucleus is a series of large, well structured progeny test programs undertaken by Breed Societies with cofunding assistance from Meat & Livestock Australia (MLA). Young bulls of high genetic merit are joined by either AI or natural mating to a commercial cow base to produce progeny which are managed commercially as one cohort and measured for a range of economically traits....
متن کاملDomestic estimated breeding values and genomic enhanced breeding values of bulls in comparison with their foreign genomic enhanced breeding values.
Estimated breeding values (EBVs) and genomic enhanced breeding values (GEBVs) for milk production of young genotyped Holstein bulls were predicted using a conventional BLUP - Animal Model, a method fitting regression coefficients for loci (RRBLUP), a method utilizing the realized genomic relationship matrix (GBLUP), by a single-step procedure (ssGBLUP) and by a one-step blending procedure. Info...
متن کاملEstimating genomic breeding values from the QTL-MAS Workshop Data using a single SNP and haplotype/IBD approach
Genomic breeding values were estimated using a Gibbs sampler that avoided the use of the Metropolis-Hastings step as implemented in the BayesB model of Meuwissen et al., Genetics 2001, 157:1819-1829.Two models that estimated genomic estimated breeding values (EBVs) were applied: one used constructed haplotypes (based on alleles of 20 markers) and IBD matrices, another used single SNP regression...
متن کاملApplying different genomic evaluation approaches on QTLMAS2010 dataset
BACKGROUND With the availability of high throughput genotyping, genomic selection, the evaluation of animals based on dense SNP genotyping, is receiving more and more attention. Several statistical methods have been suggested for genomic selection. Compared to traditional selection, genomic selection can be more accurate which can lead to higher efficiency in terms of time and cost. Herein we a...
