Wide availability of genomic data has had a considerable impact on plant and animal
breeding programs which enables the study of genotypes and their relationships with …

Previously we reported the inability of genomic prediction methods based on linear models
to accurately predict trait values composed of an epistatic genetic architecture. We also …

The genomic prediction of phenotypes and breeding values in animals and plants has
developed rapidly into its own research field. Results of genomic prediction studies are often …

Gao et al. propose several approaches to incorporate gene annotation into genomic
prediction and evaluate these new methods on populations..... Today, genomic prediction …

A major challenge with modelling non-additive genetic variation is that it is hard to separate
it from additive and environmental variation. In this paper, we describe how to alleviate this …

Background In genomic prediction, an important measure of accuracy is the correlation
between the predicted and the true breeding values. Direct computation of this quantity for …

Reliable methods of phenotype prediction from genomic data play an increasingly important
role in many areas of plant and animal breeding. Thus, developing methods that enhance …

Genomic selection (GS) is a methodology that revolutionized the process of breeding
improved genetic materials in plant and animal breeding programs. It uses predicted …

Background Most quantitative traits are controlled by multiple quantitative trait loci (QTL).
The contribution of each locus may be negligible but the collective contribution of all loci is …

The use of genomic information for prediction of future phenotypes or breeding values for
the candidates to selection has become a standard over the last decade. However, most …
