چکیده مقاله:

In order to have successful application of genomic selection, reference population and marker density should be chosen properly. This study purpose was to investigate the accuracy of genomic estimated breeding values in terms of low (5K), intermediate (50K) and high (777K) densities in the simulated populations, when different scenarios were applied about the reference populations selecting. After simulating the historical (undergoing drift and mutation) and recent (undergoing selection) population structures, 800 individuals were remained in reference population. Three scenarios were considered for reducing the reference population number including: 1) 400 individuals which had the highest relationships with the validation set, 2) 400 individuals which had the highest inbreeding, and 3) 400 selected individuals by random. The genomic breeding values were predicted for traits with two heritability levels (0.25 and 0.5) using best linear unbiased prediction (BLUP) with different markers and pedigree information combinations of included pedigree-based BLUP (ABLUP), which was used a numerator relationships matrix (A) only, genomic best linear unbiased prediction (GBLUP) which was used a genomic relationship matrix (G) only, and BLUP|GA, which combined both A and G by using a weight parameter (l). By increasing l, the prediction model was changed from GBLUP (l=0) to ABLUP (l=1). The results indicated that without considering the panel density effects, G matrix (l=0) and A matrix (l=1) usages had the highest and lowest prediction accuracy, respectively. Comparative analyses of different scenarios of reference population selection revealed that all individuals’ inclusion in reference population yielded the highest estimation accuracy for breeding values (P<0.05). On the contrary, using reduced single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) panels considerably decreased the accuracy of breeding value prediction. Individuals selecting in the reference set with a high genetic relationship to target animals, considerably improved the reduction in genomic prediction accuracy because of small reference population size.

Prediction of maize double-cross hybrids using the best linear unbiased prediction with microsatellite marker information.

We examined the usefulness of the best linear unbiased prediction associated with molecular markers for prediction of untested maize double-cross hybrids. Ten single-cross hybrids from different commercial backgrounds were crossed using a complete diallel design. These 10 single-cross hybrids were genotyped with 20 microsatellite markers. The best linear unbiased prediction associated with micr...

Genetic evaluation by best linear unbiased prediction using marker and trait information in a multibreed population.

Genetic evaluation by best linear unbiased prediction (BLUP) requires modeling genetic means, variances, and covariances. This paper presents theory to model means, variances, and covariances in a multibreed population, given marker and breed information, in the presence of gametic disequilibrium between the marker locus (ML) and linked quantitative trait locus (MQTL). Theory and algorithms are...

Best Linear Unbiased Prediction of Genomic Breeding Values Using a Trait-Specific Marker-Derived Relationship Matrix

BACKGROUND With the availability of high density whole-genome single nucleotide polymorphism chips, genomic selection has become a promising method to estimate genetic merit with potentially high accuracy for animal, plant and aquaculture species of economic importance. With markers covering the entire genome, genetic merit of genotyped individuals can be predicted directly within the framework...

Best linear unbiased estimation and prediction under a selection model.

Mixed linear models are assumed in most animal breeding applications. Convenient methods for computing BLUE of the estimable linear functions of the fixed elements of the model and for computing best linear unbiased predictions of the random elements of the model have been available. Most data available to animal breeders, however, do not meet the usual requirements of random sampling, the prob...

Genomic selection using different marker types and densities.

With the availability of high-density marker maps and cost-effective genotyping, genomic selection methods may provide faster genetic gain than can be achieved by current selection methods based on phenotypes and the pedigree. Here we investigate some of the factors driving the accuracy of genomic selection, namely marker density and marker type (i.e., microsatellite and SNP markers), and the u...

Estimation of genotype imputation accuracy using reference populations with varying degrees of relationship and marker density panel

Genotype imputation from low-density to high-density (SNP) chips is an important step before applying genomic selection, because denser chips can provide more reliable genomic predictions. In the current research, the accuracy of genotype imputation from low and moderate-density panels (5K and 50K) to high-density panels in the purebred and crossbred populations was assessed. The simulated popu...
